City walking trainers ...that don't have the big clunky heel...but able to do 20,000 steps a day !

[bizzey]

Hi.
I am very petite with petite feet .

Big clunky trainers do look a bit silly on me with a dress !

City vacation with a lot of walking and steps .

Or are the heels part important in the comfort ?

Thanks .

Vejas

I like Skechers D-Lites and New Balance trail shoes for city walking.

Fitflop Rally. Though not the epitome of style.

Adidas SL72

More supportive/cushioned than Sambas or Gazelles but not chunky.

Thank you all so much .

Those suggestions have given me ideas and hope !!

I have these as well. So comfortable.

Either Sorel or Saucony, took a pair of each to Japan and did those sort of steps each day. Really comfy and went with most outfits.

@CharlotteRumpling I have packed these tonight for city break . I have them in black and white . The black ones are not my favourite tbh.

If I was doing this I would wear my allbirds or sketchers

I’ve just got some Puma Palermo and they are great for walking around and come in wide range of colours. I also like that they are suede and not all synthetic materials. I’ve just ordered a second pair in another colour.

I wear Adidas SL72 - lightweight, incredibly comfortable, and less clunky than most trainers. I walk miles every day in mine.

On cloud trainers! Very lightweight and so comfy

I’ve looked at them online but never bought. Do you have the very chunky-soled ones? I worry about going over on my ankle wearing them, though the cushioning looks glorious!

Fit flops trainers have arch support and memory foam insoles so they're extremely comfortable.

Sketchers or Air and Grace
I find Vejas really heavy

These are my ones: https://thesportsedit.com/products/on-running-shoes-womens-cloud-6-black-white-3wf10060299

They don't feel overly chunky once on - I have a tendency to go over my ankles (hypermobility) but have never had that issue in them! I was hesitant due to price but if you can I would say go for it. I now have two pairs because I wear them so often.

Have a look at Hoff. I like the city style. They are slightly more sporty looking than some others recommend on this thread but they aren't chunky. I find them really comfortable and there are loads of colour combinations to choose from.

I like my Veja esplar too but I don't think I'd find them comfortable for as much walking as you are planning. The rio branco style might work though.

My adidas gazelles are so comfortable as they have a built in arch.
I could walk all day in mine

Recommend Hoff for comfort.

My adidas SL72’s are really comfortable too 😊

I like Victoria trainers, they are super comfy. https://www.schuh.co.uk/brands/victoria/?gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=12402698294&gbraid=0AAAAAD_U1L9kVSav1ocRdjL8XK0Npsvd1&gclid=CjwKCAjwruXBBhArEiwACBRtHWVdeKFTngkI3oRi9ZGQ5gh5-IqNtanBv5vLeCa-1h0uRzCv8EAeKRoCl8gQAvD_BwE

Comfy but not particularly breathable. I find my feet get very hot after a day of walking in warmer weather....

These are super comfortable and stylish at the same time. Went on trip through Argentina and Chile with them involving lots of walking, without breaking them in first, and they were extremely versatile. Getting lots of compliments in London from people who have no idea they are from M&S.
