After what felt like one of the longest winters ever, spring seems to finally be on the horizon (maybe? hopefully??). And while we love our boots, soon it'll be time to put them in the back of our closet to make room for the season's coolest new kicks.
We usually go pretty hard on our spring and summer shoes, though—subjecting them to numerous muddy festivals, sandy surfaces, and long walks across the city. So, dishing out hundreds of dollars for a pair of fancy, strappy sandals just doesn't seem worth it. Over the years, we've become experts at finding on-trend, super-cool shoes on the cheap. Click through the gallery to see our top 50 picks for spring under $50.
