Things just got a little sunnier thanks to Oprah’s Favorite Things.
The 2024 version of the media mogul’s annual list was released last week, and Sneex’s The Icon Hy-Heel Sneakers secured a coveted spot despite only being a few months old. “It took almost 10 years, and the innovation is how it redistributes the weight from your foot,” Oprah wrote. “The result is the Gayle shoe [King] wore for 12 hours without stopping!”
Do you know who else wears them? Reese Witherspoon sported Oprah-approved style for the Hello Sunshine event last month, even while on set Morning show before that. Hoda Kotb also wears The Icon style and claims, “They give me height and comfort. What else is there?”

Each pair is handcrafted from high-quality materials like Nappa leather, as well as Italian mesh that allows for air flow, reducing the risk of smelly, sweaty shoes. They’re also designed with “zero pinch” toes, a rubber outsole for grip, and a better balance of weight between the ball and heel of the foot, so one doesn’t carry more weight than the other.

The Icon Hy-Heel sneakers cost $395, which may not be the smallest bill. But we think they would make a good gift for someone who wants to spend a little more than standard heels but a little less than designer heels. Each shoe also comes with a separate dust bag, so they won’t get dirty or damaged during travel. Plus, they’ve already sold out, so buying a pair would be special.

The icon may have been the style that won Oprah praise, but the brand has other styles available, including The Tepper, which Drew Barrymore gave to Mariah Carey, so she doesn’t have to wear uncomfortable heels the next time she visits the Great Wall of China. A few sizes and colors are still in stock — and they’re pretty holiday appropriate — like this snow white shade and these red ones.

Sneex’s final design, The Blake, comes with two adjustable straps, and they’re the ones Jane Fonda announced in an Instagram post in September.
