I couldn't be more excited that jellies shoes are back, because these were my absolute favorite 80s fashion trend as a kid. Well, friendship bracelets were totally rad too. And I did love my tie-dye everything. Let's just say I'm thrilled that some of my favorite 80s styles back, and that my daughters are loving it too. So I've looked around and put together some awesome jellies shoes for kids and teens, lots on sale.
And, yes, for those of us grown women who wants to rock some retro footwear fashion too.
I mean come on -- affordable, comfy, and reminiscent of a "simpler" time? What could be more perfect in today's world?

When I think of classic 80s jellies, a certain shape springs to mind. They're reinvented for 2024 in these pink sparkle ballet flat jellies with butterfly accents from Melissa at Nordstrom. They also come in a beige that's a little sophisticated and goes with everything.
Teens and stylish tweens can absolutely get in on the flashback fun too. There are lots of color choices for these geometric jellies flats at Los Angeles Apparel, but the 80s kid in me loves the flashy neon. Whoo! Speaking of which, I just may get them myself. They start in women's sizes 5 and up. And considering they're under $20 -- and the ratings are fantastic -- I might not have to choose between colors at all.

Old Navy has Jellies in a glitter Fisherman Sandal in silver glitter or bubbble gum pink, here. Maybe both? I mean how can you resist glitter that doesn't get all over your house?
For younger kids who might struggle to keep a ballet flat on their feet, Boden carrie fisherman style jellies that are practical. And on sale!
Update: Sadly the glitter jellies from Boden are out of stock, but we found cute fisherman-style jellies shoes at Boden with a big juicy strawberry on them.
Another solid fisherman sandal Jelly shoe for kids -- and I do mean solid -- comes from shoe label Melissa at Nordstrom. In clear or pearly blue they're classic, but these black jellies will go with everything, from swimsuits to a dress for dinner at Grandma's.
A more up-to-date style at a fantastic price: Mix No. 6 Rainbow Jelly Sandals for Kids which I found for a fantastic price at DSW. Fabulous. And the best part is ,that they'll go with pretty much any outfit your kid chooses this summer.
If you love the jellies shoes look but don't want a totally retro vibe, Crocs Jellies have entered the chat and they're so practical for summer. They don't just look cute, they're super easy to rinse off after they get all sandy.
