Stylish walking sandals

9 replies

I've got a long weekend of walking coming up but I will also be going for nice lunches etc. I'm just a bit sick of wearing my trainers with dresses - I want to look a bit more stylish. I'm short and dumpy and I feel trainers don"t help.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

I had this exact same problem. I found these Clarks sandals and have lived in them all summer. They're reasonably stylish whilst nicely padded and very comfortable. www.clarks.co.uk/c/Karsea-Sun/p/26166030 finding stylish yet padded sandals is near impossible, especially as I didn't want a big platform.

Might be an out there suggestion but I have seen a lot of people wearing these with pretty summer clothes in the last few weeks. Seem to be fashion, rather than just in outdoors shops this year. Look really comfy. I'm going to buy a pair.

I've got a pair of black chunky dr martens and a pair of black tevas. I love them both I tend to wear the tevas more and the dr Martins when I want to dress up a bit.

L love Rieker sandals for comfort in hot weather, and I think they look okay with most things casual. But they are not this year''s hot fashion.

It won't let me link but I have some Skechers walking sandals that have done me many miles.

Keen sandals are perfect for this. You can hike in comfort all day, wear them to the beach, but they still look great. https://www.keenfootwear.com/en-gb/p/W-ROSE-SANDAL.html?dwvar_W-ROSE-SANDAL_color=1026313&cgid=merch_sandals

I have fitflops which are stylish enough for me but maybe not to your taste... so comfy for walking in though.
I like the barbour ones for a bit more style but not just as comfy!

Nice. Clarks are full of surprises.
