Stop! Put them down. Those shoes are not worth the space in your luggage if they’re not comfortable — plain and simple. If you can’t wear them for more than a few hours, leave them at home. If you look at your shoe selection and cringe at the thought of future blisters, then this list of travel-friendly comfortable footwear is for you.

Deeply discounted deals on Amazon’s most highly rated comfortable shoes are hiding in plain sight. Although Prime Big Deal Days sales are over, there are still discounted items to be found — you just have to know where to look. 

Luckily, I did the digging for you and lined up some of the most comfortable and versatile shoes that I’d personally pack on my trips. From sturdy hiking boots to timeless white tennis shoes, and fall clogs, I’ve gathered the comfiest styles while prioritizing markdowns of more than 20 percent off.

If you’re looking for fresh kicks you can count on to be comfortable for a full day of walking, these 10 picks are for you.

Clarks Women’s Juliet Palm Loafer

This simple, versatile loafer is an impressive 45 percent off. With the look of a dress shoe but the comfort of a loafer, these are great for a minimal travel packing list. Shoppers appreciate their ability to be styled up or down, with one reviewer raving, “I love this shoe. I wore it with a dress to a tea. I usually would never wear flats with a dress, but I was traveling and they worked perfectly.”

Columbia Women’s Newton Ridge Plus Waterproof Amped Hiking Boot

These hiking boots are the No. 1 best-seller in women’s hiking boots on Amazon, and you might have author Cheryl Strayed to thank for that — her character (played by Reese Witherspoon) hiked in a similar-looking pair of Danner Mountain boots in the movie adaptation of her travel memoir, Wild. These light brown Columbia hiking boots with red laces will last you many years of trail exploring, and they’re on sale now for 47 percent off.

New Balance Women’s DynaSoft Nergize Sport V2 Cross Trainer

Stay supported for a full day of sightseeing in these trainers, which are top-selling cross-training shoes on Amazon. Available in 19 different colorways, you’ll have to hop around to see which colors are on sale, but the cream pair with animal-print detailing on the heel, a fall fashion trend, would be my pick. 

Arromic Women’s Pointed Toe Knit Slip-on Loafers

A perfect addition to your travel wardrobe, these slip-ons are made of a soft knit and are machine washable! The cushioned heel can help prevent blisters and the replaceable insoles make these shoes customizable to your preferred fit. And right now, they’re 50 percent off. I like them in a pop of red, but they also come in neutral tones and an animal print.

Keds Women’s Champion Canvas Lace-up Sneaker

Keds have been in style since the ’80s and it’s clear they’ve been solidified in the canon of timeless women’s sneakers. I wear Keds on my travels where I’ll be maneuvering on a boat deck (the light rubber soles are ideal). I also style these with everything from a silk midi skirt to jeans and tee — there’s no outfit they can’t conform to. Right now, several colors, including bold red, butter yellow, olive green, and white, are on sale.

Dansko Berry Slip-on Mule Clogs

Dansko clogs are beloved by nurses and hospitality workers everywhere for their comfortable footbed and anti-slip sole. A classic fall clog with a nice heel, these slip-ons are on sale for 33 percent off. I’d wear these on a hectic flight day, and pack my most comfortable fuzzy socks for the airplane. “This clog is so comfortable, easy to have on and off for airport travel and going through security, and looks great with most outfits!” exclaimed one happy traveler.

Naturalizer Women’s Brenta Strappy Platform Dress Sandal

I don’t often suggest packing heels on trips unless you have a specific event, like a destination wedding, where you want that look. But when you need a bit of height, reach for these comfortable heels by Naturalizer. I like the versatility of these classic nude heels (now 33 percent off), but the bronze and silver are on sale, too (44 and 47 percent off, respectively). If you’re still skeptical that heels can be comfortable, you’re not alone. Amazon shoppers were also shocked that these shoes didn’t hurt after wearing them for long weddings, with one reviewer writing, “I wore these shoes for five hours at a wedding, and toward the end [my feet] were tired, but this is a great pair of shoes.” Another wedding attendee attributed the comfort to the approachable heel height: “[The] heel was not too high [and] it was just right to be up on for hours.”

Dr. Scholl’s Women’s Madison Lace Sneaker

These classic white sneakers are 30 percent off right now. Dr. Scholl’s is known for keeping comfort at the core of all of their shoes, and these Madison lace-ups don’t disappoint. One shopper said they were perfect for their European vacation and could wear them all day before adding, “They’re versatile, effortlessly fitting into any outfit, whether casual or a bit more dressed. After two weeks of nonstop wear, they still look brand new.”

Bruno Marc Men’s KnitFlex Oxford Sneakers

With more than 14,000 reviews, these smart-looking knit shoes maintain an average rating of 4.6 stars. The dress-shoe-sneaker hybrids are great to pack on trips where you don’t have space in your carry-on luggage for several pairs of bulky shoes. The flexible knit upper ensures you don’t have to worry about crushing the shoe’s shape. One shopper said they handled 7 to 10 miles of walking a day when traveling through Portugal; plus, the shoes are “lightweight, very breathable, and comfortable.”

Adidas Samba OG Women’s Sneaker

Somehow forever in fashion, Sambas have been seen on the feet of celebrities and models. Right now the white-and-green colorway is 21 percent off, the lowest price in 30 days. Now’s the time to strike on these timeless shoes that are always in fashion the world over.
