In fact, many travelers walk 6 to 8 miles per day while on vacation, which is why it’s essential to have comfortable sneakers on hand.

If you’re searching for a pair of white sneakers, consider this style, which has garnered over 400 five-star ratings. They have a rounded toe, medium width, and a memory foam insole, which “feels like you are walking on a mattress,” per one satisfied shopper. Their polyester and polyurethane upper can be easily cleaned with a mild detergent. A healthcare worker added that they wore them at Disney World, and their feet felt great at the end of each day.

With a breathable knit upper, shock-absorbing midsole, and traction outsole, it’s safe to say these slip-on sneakers are designed for walking. One traveler brought them on a vacation where they “walked 20,000 steps per day” and found them to be “more comfortable than a few other brands.” The shoes, crafted from vegan materials, are currently available in two colors.
Naturalizer Soul Neela Sneakers
Target
These sporty chic sneakers come in a metallic synthetic or synthetic upper, and both options are versatile enough to match several vacation looks. In addition to foam lining, the shoes feature a flexible outsole and arch support, which will keep your feet feeling ache-free all day, according to several shoppers.

Target
Whether you’re headed to Europe or the Caribbean, these walking sneakers from one of our favorite sneaker brands are a great option. They have soft and responsive cushioning, which is how one buyer, who suffers from plantar fasciitis, was able to walk in them for “184 kilometers in over two weeks” without feeling pain. Right now, you can grab the shoes with a padded heel and rubber sole in eight colors.
