Condé Nast Traveler editors list comfortable walking shoes for trips
Condé Nast Traveler editors have compiled a list of comfortable walking shoes for travelers packing carry-on luggage.
Editors seek versatile footwear options
The publication notes that closet collections often contain excessive numbers of sneakers, flats, and boots. When packing for a trip with limited space, versatility becomes the primary requirement alongside comfort. Editors state that comfortable shoes are crucial for vacations involving hikes or city strolls.
Testing criteria focus on wear time
Some selected shoes were worn by editors for years on their own accord without formal testing protocols. Other items were chosen because they do not require much break-in time before use. The list covers a range of styles and price points to suit different budgets.
Ideal shoes prevent foot irritation
The best walking shoes leave travelers blister-free without causing irritated heels or sore arches. Well-cushioned footwear is essential for long days on the road or pool deck laps. The collection includes sneakers, athletic shoes, flats, slip-ons, sandals, and boots.
