These 9 sandals for walking all day are essential for your travel outfits. I need sandals that can be worn on cobblestone streets while being active on vacation. These are the most supportive sandals for tired, hot feet while walking all day, wherever you travel. They all happen to be versatile for your travel outfits this Summer too, if you need to pack in only carry-on luggage.
Rugged Sole
Wear this when walking on cobbled roads. This sandal provides secure footing essential for walking along loose gravel. Its sole has grip to give you a solid step.
Arch support to help your tired feet.
I would pack these sandals for a trip to Greece or Alaska this summer.
Summer Travels
I just wore these sandals all day because they fit securely. The velcro closure makes slipping my foot in easy and less stressful.
This sandal is versatile for a dress because of the slight wedge, but looks fun with a casual vacation outfit during the day.
The woven fabric and cork foot-bed make it fun for summer dresses too.
Do NOT forget to pack waterproof AND stretchy band-aids.
Tip for Summer: Remember you have not worn sandals in many months so you may get a blister.
Support and Sparkle
The rhinestone decoration does not scrape your foot. The stretchy strap on this part of my sandal makes slipping it over my heel easier. I sized down and it is still so comfortable. It’s like a little bed for your foot.
New Favorite
The fourth sandal is my newest one for travel. The 1 inch heel is a slight wedge. LOVE its velcro closure that is adjustable.
Can you see the wave design, allowing air flow?
Travel tip for vacation outfits: neutral tone sandal lengthens the look of your leg. Champagne is similar to my skin tone, so this is neutral for blue wide-leg pants as well as with a black linen dress.
The problem is that I want to wear all of them for my trip to the Azores. As a pilot’s wife we pack in only carry-on luggage so I have tips for you.
Hiking or Loose Gravel
Merrell and Teva are some of my favorite walking in the woods type shoes. They are also waterproof and they float I found out last year.
Love their arch support too.
A Pleasant Surprise
I thought the 2-inch wedge would be bulky, but these are comfortable. Buckle closure but all the pillows of padding make walking all day easily doable.
Comfy, even on Tile Floors
I have walked in these sandals all day in my tile floor house. Beach resorts are usually completely tile-floored which is where these sandals come in for traveling. The lining is a soft microfiber.
Notice on the website that this natural color is darker than appears. But it lengthens, it adds support as well as a rugged sole to walk on pavement all day.
When packing shoes, one way that I follow the travel tip to only pack 2 is to use sandals that can be worn multiple ways. I can wear these during a day but also into a restaurant with a dress.
Bargain Sandal
It is under $15 right now (will sell out fast). The thong on these strappy sandals is soft too. I like this one too because it is a flat sandal while still being a light skin tone for my travel outfits.
Waterproof
This sandal was needed in Maui when I had to walk through the complex and then across the street to get to the beach. Very supportive sandal that is WATERPROOF so you can hose it off after your vacation.
It has a very strong velcro too. I have both the gray pair and peach.
Shoes on a River Cruise Tip:
If you are going on a river cruise, being very active on your vacation during the day, I found that wearing sandals at night, that my feet can air out in is such a relief!
Bonus Sandal
These are not for walking all day, but there are 2 features I want to show you. They can look dressy too:
