From sneakers that transformed into rollerblades to flip-flops that gave us 4-inch boosts, these are the shoes we ran around in all summer long.

Kids don't needto be zipping around on wheels all day long, and yet Heelys made that a reality. These iconic shoes made a serious mark on the childhoods of anyone who grew up in the early 2000s, and if you're like me, they also left their mark in the form of a few scars.

2. Light-up sneakers

The Old Navy flip-flop sale has long been a summer staple, and these suckers are still a pool-side necessity to this day. They're not the highest quality shoes, but why should that matter when they cost literally just a buck? They'll get you from the pool to wherever you need to go and that's all that matters to a kid in the summer.

4. Platform flip-flops

On the other end of the flip-flop spectrum are platform sandals. They had the power to elevate you from Normal Kid to Cool Kid. I'm sorry, but it's true. I don't make the rules.

5. Birkenstock clogs

Any style of Birkenstock sandals are a timeless summer shoe for all ages, but the clogs are in a league of their own. They protected our toes from stomps on the playground, but gave our heels room to breathe. What more could we ask for?

6. Mesh slippers

You might know these colloquially as "Chinese slippers," but whatever you called them, you already know that these were ~all that~ and more in the early 2000s. If you had multiple colors, even better. I treated these like Pokémon, in that I tried to collect them all. Balenciaga can make all the slippers they want, but there's nothing like a pair of classic mesh slippers to wear out in the world.

7. Jellies

Another marker of a playground cool kid were jelly sandals — which is another way of saying that everyonewas cool, because pretty much every kid had a pair. The fact that Rihanna designed a version of these plastic shoes for adults is a definite sign of their cultural impact.
