Footwear question for trips with lot of walking

Anonymous
I've gotten a couple of pairs of sandals from The Walking Store in Georgetown. https://www.abeofootwear.com/

I wear birkenstocks. They have a lot now that aren't so crunchy. I have gold ones and patent leather ones. I've walked all over Europe with them.

Make sure you break them in before the trip.

I can walk miles in my Vionic flip flops

I would try to find something that looks like a ballet flat with a sneaker sole. Sketchers usually have some good options and I actually got a Champion pair fro payless that I like a lot.

Second taos, naot, aetrex sandals. Be prepared to spend $$ and order on zappos and check out the reviews and fit.

Get Birkenstocks. I have their gaileh sandal and it's cute and so comfortable. I plan on bringing them to Europe this summer

I own 4 pairs of Skechers. Like walking on air.

My feet never hurt, my hips stopped hurting, comfort is like no other shoe I've ever owned. The best shoe made today in my opinion.

my go to are Dansko sandals with rocker bottoms - I have literally walked 13 miles in them in one day and my feet felt great. I wear them with dresses/skirts and pants. For shoes I typically get a pair of light weight merrills that I can hike in (have good treads) but are light weight enough they don't take up space in my suitcase. The shoes I will never ever bring on a trip that requires walking? Sugerga shoes - no arch support, they don't breathe so summer heat made my feet hot, sweaty and blisters, keen sandals (for my feet the foot bed doesn't fit my foot well and I end up with a lot of pain near my big toe), ballet flats - various types - just not enough padding for walking on cobblestone streets. They are fine for going to dinner and quick walks around but if you are doing a lot of miles and/or museums, streets etc my feet were in pain.
