Jelly shoes are officially back! The nostalgic ’90s staple has become one of the year’s biggest footwear trends thanks to the ongoing Y2K revival. If you’ve been considering trying the trend yourself, there’s an affordable designer option worth adding to your cart.
Right now, the Steve Madden Grove Caged Slip-On Jelly Flats at Macy’s are down to $29 from $49 — 40% off. The deal is part of Macy’s Black Friday in July sale event, which runs through July 26. The retro flats are already winning shoppers over. One reviewer called them “super comfortable” and “cute,” and said they earned “compliments galore.”

These aren’t the chunky jelly shoes you wore as a kid. These updated flats feature a breathable, woven design that promotes airflow, so your feet stay cool and comfortable in warmer weather. They’re also made from water-friendly synthetic material, which makes them a practical choice for beach trips, pool days, boating, or everyday wear.
These slip-ons are easy to style. Pair them with a breezy sundress for a polished summer look, or keep things casual with cropped denim, relaxed linen pants, or tailored shorts. They come in women’s sizes 6 through 10 and four fun colors: red, blue, tortoise, and clear. Some reviewers noted that the fit runs slightly small, so if you’re between sizes, consider sizing up for the most comfortable fit.
Macy shoppers said comfort is one of their standout features. One reviewer called them “stylish and comfortable” and said they’re “perfect for summer wear.” Another wrote, “These shoes are the most comfortable pair of shoes that I purchased from Steve Madden. They are flexible, colorful, and I would buy them again.”
A third said they “absolutely love these jellies,” adding that they’re “so comfy.”
