Things just got a little bit sunnier thanks to Oprah’s Favorite Things.
The 2024 version of the media mogul’s annual list came out last week, and Sneex’s The Icon Hy-Heel Sneakers secured a coveted spot even though they’re just a few months old. “It took almost 10 years, and the innovation is how it redistributes the weight off the ball of your foot,” Oprah wrote. “The result is a shoe Gayle [King] wore for 12 hours straight!”
Do you know who else wears them? Reese Witherspoon had on the Oprah-approved style for a Hello Sunshine event last month, and even while on the set of The Morning Show before that. Hoda Kotb also wears The Icon style and claimed: “They give me the height and the comfort. What else is there?”
Sneex The Icon Hy-Heel Sneaker in Black

$395
Each pair is handmade with high-quality materials like Nappa leather, as well as Italian mesh that allows for airflow, mitigating the risk of stinky, sweaty shoes. They are also designed with a “zero squeezing” toe box, a rubber sole for traction, and a better balance of weight between the balls and heels of the feet, so one isn’t carrying the load more than the other.

$395
The Icon Hy-Heel Sneakers cost $395, which might not be the smallest bill to foot. But we think they would make a good gift for someone who is looking to spend a little more than a standard stiletto but a little less than designer heels. Each shoe comes with an individual dust bag, too, so they won’t get dirty or damaged while traveling. Plus, they’ve sold out before, so landing a pair would feel special.
Sneex The Tepper Hy-Heel Sneaker in White

$595
The Icon may have been the style to get a shoutout from Oprah, but the brand also 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 quite holiday-friendly — like this snowy white shade and these red ones.
Sneex The Blake Hy-Heel Sneaker in Blue

$545
Sneex’s final design, The Blake, comes with two adjustable straps and are the ones Jane Fonda posted about in an Instagram post back in September.
