I agree: Birkenstock for the win ! They are very comfortable walking sandals.
Much needed suggestions on this video. Thank you Allie for making this. Keep sharing more.
I always do carry on so for shoes I wear a pair and pack a pair. Only taking one pair is risky. If your shoes get soaked or ruined somehow you are stuck with damp or damaged shoes or buying new shoes and getting new shoe blisters. I wear the bulkier walking shoes and pack the lighter walking flats that look good with pants or skirts. (I always pack at least one skirt because some places still actually frown on women in slacks.) My color of choice is black because it doesn't show scuffs as much.
Thanks for just even mentioning cooler/cold weather options. You basically know st just justified my shoes. Cheers!
My kids are getting bigger and we are able to do a bit more traveling so I greatly appreciate all of the tips
I follow a similar approach for my picky feet. Start with activities we’ll be doing and weather. See if I can do all with two shoes, if not then add one more pair. Birkenstocks and a running shoe always make my list in warm weather.
Helpful!
Yes, shoe angst is real! I always appreciate your perspective…Nick takes minimalism to a level I can’t attain yet. 🤣
Lucky im a european woman and i decide to only wear black nike runners in winter or white nike runners in summer when traveling around Europe. Its so simple. You look like an american tourist if you wear shoes
Great tips Allie! I have small feet so I put my ballet flats inside my husband’s shoes in his backpack 😂
Expound on the comfort advice, that is most important (to me anyway!) 🙂
My shoe plans for an upcoming trip are Adidas Cloudfoam for most of the time-walking around in. Clarks Cloudsteppers are just the MOST comfortable sandals I've found. Are we seeing a trend? I like things that are cloud-like apparently. Haha. I may also bring my Toms Alpargatas. They are relatively light and shouldn't take up a ton of room for carry-on purposes. They aren't great for walking tons of miles, but they are super comfortable for running to dinner or what not.
In summer I looooooove Tevas and Merrill shoes for walking!
Sneakers can make me feel overheated so I often avoid them in summer
Sending love and light
If you’re going to do a lot of walking day after day, it’s good to have at least 2 pairs of shoes so you can alternate. It’s better for your feet. Thanks for the recommendations.
I agree with your husband. As a european woman i only wear black nike runners when traveling. Or black solomon trek runners if involves hiking. Then i bring the €1 Penneys/primark flipflops for the shower/pool
FYI, Birkenstock makes a white leather sneaker that’s pretty awesome. I’d found kits if cute options but none that fit and stayed comfortable walking several miles in a day.
I brought one pair of shoes which I had to toss in Japan and bought a pair of all black Hoka due to all the walking and stairs. I was in so much pain with my sketchers. Summer I would buy a light color. You can also get shoe covers for rain.
I know people love them, but I have never thought Birkenstocks were comfortable. The footbed is way too hard and makes my back hurt. I love Allbirds for walking. So comfortable! I found some black waterproof ankle boots by Merrill that I will be taking on our trip to Scotland. I love how versatile they will be for looking dressier while being very comfortable for a lot of walking in the rain!
Birkenstocks are definitely not for every foot type - they require the wearer's foot to be in a certain width range, they don't work for all arches, etc. And they require a break-in period - they can be pretty uncomfortable when new, but after they've softened up a little and molded themselves to my feed, they're amazing.
Same. I tried Birks, but they were SO uncomfortable. I just couldn't stand them. I specifically came here to mention how uncomfortable I found them.
Now, I have read since that there needs to be a break-in period so...maybe they would have gotten better. But....I didn't even give it a chance at that point.
I found a slip on shoe by Tom’s called the Resident. It’s not super flat, accommodates my mildish bunions and are comfortable and nice looking. I’ve never cared for Birkenstocks, no matter the style.
What size do you wear in the Roger shoe?
Do you find it is a narrow or wide fitting shoe?
Prefer Mephisto footbed sandals/black/black flower. And short
Shaft UGG Ultra Boots/black suede waterproofed. Red Chanel ballet flats. Take only black, and white clothing. ✈️
Great ideas! Hope you’re able to visit to Salzburg on your Austria trip. Such a beautiful, charming city!
LOVE Salzburg, and yes we plan to have a couple days there.
@@awaytogether will you be posting about your Austria trip anytime soon? Headed there too :)
Good thing I came across your video as I was planning on wearing regular running shoes while on vacation. I’m actually leaving now to go buy the pair you suggested or as close to them as I can find. Thank you.
I kove the idea of 3 pairs, but I was wondering about flip flops when you take a shower or go to the beach. Also I love do some sport so for me one sport snikers and one white I think would be enough.
I am wearing Hykes Pinnacle barefoot shoes, soooo comfy and will never go back to regular shoes.
I’ve never owned a pair of Birkenstocks, but I did so much walking on my last holiday, that I’m considering purchasing a pair for future travels.
Same. Love the idea but not the look so much. Found Birkenstock
Glenda by Papillio on Zappos and LOVE them for comfort & style. Site noted run narrow but not the case at all.
Thanks, Zoe!
How do your Birks do when you're walking downhill? The reason I ask: before a recent trip to Germany, I bought a pair of Crocs with thick, non-slip soles, thinking they would be ideal for cobblestones etc. (I haven't worn Birks in a long time, but for me, their general comfort level is similar to Crocs). Anyway, the Crocs were great on level ground and going uphill, but downhill was horrible! Since there was nothing to grip my heels, my toes kept getting smashed into the front of the shoes. It made for a painful descent from Neuschwanstein Castle and a few other places. 😳
Shoes are always the biggest stress point for me. I leave in 10 days for a short 10 day trip visiting family and I’ve been stressing for weeks on what shoes to bring 😂. The struggle is so real.
I’ve never tried Birkenstock sandals and I really need to. I’ve always heard great things about them.
you are killing me
Im going to Italy & Scotland for 17 days and doing a Monos carry on and a Ogio backpack. I tend to buy stuff so I'm also packing a 40L foldable duffle so i can check my Monos for breakable souvenirs and pack clothes in the duffle.
Water shoes?
Crocs are great but huge, lol, so if space is a concern I go with the old school flip flops that take up very little space. Happy traveling.😀
No not crocs and would have never owned them. Water shoes for beaches and swimming where rocks are rough etc. Heading to Greece and these were suggested. Thoughts?
I love Allbirds!
chacos for the win! I've used for travel, hiking, water and city@@nancynewman6776
I love my Speedo hybrid watercross water shoe. I got them at Costco. They are wonderful. They looked like a regular tennishoe. It's very light weight and comfortable to walk around. I use them on the beach, the water, and walking around.
Too much footage of the speaker and not enough of the shoe options
Turtle
Barefoot shoes!
I disagree as a european woman!!! Pack zero shoes. Only wear black nike runners winter or white ones in summer. Your american advice for european women is wrong
I’ve been to Europe several times and pretty sure I saw women wearing more than just Nike runners.
I wear a size 12 narrow shoe. Most places don’t carry that size, so I have to bring shoes
