  Cloud 5 Running Shoes

  Pros

  • Easy slip-on design
  • Lightweight
  • Trendy colors

  Cons

  • Next to none—practically perfect

  Multiple SELF staffers recommend On’s streamlined shoes for hoofing it around new locales, but the best-selling Cloud 5 is our top pick for touring. It’s lightweight, breathable, and available in a bunch of cute colors, so you can feel good about dedicating a little space to it in your carry-on (and pairing it with most of your outfits).

  This sneaker features a clever elastic lacing system that allows you to slip your foot right in, but still feels secure once it’s pulled tight. The sole is made with super lightweight yet springy cushioning to help propel you forward with each step. All told, the On Cloud 5’s casual, minimalist appearance disguises how swift it can be when you need a bit of speed—you know, in case your gate changes at the last minute.

  • Comfy right out of the box

  Cons

  • Limited color options

  One SELF editor likes Reebok’s “old-school cool” Classic Nylon Sneaker for all-day wear when she wants a little extra style (without any annoying foot pain).

  Chaco

  Z/1 Classic Sandals

  Pros

  • Sturdy design
  • Contoured footbed

  Cons

  • On the heavier side for a sandal

  The expert-approved Chaco Z/1 sandal is a top pick among frequent travelers, hikers, outdoor guides, and SELF staffers for its secure fit and impressively rugged exterior. The “sole and grip is unlike any other brand, and they’re extremely durable,” Mariah Arianna, an adventure elopement photographer, previously told SELF.

  You can wear these supportive sandals on hard pavement, through puddles, and over rocky paths without losing your rhythm. Plus, we like that they’re still comfy enough to keep wearing once you make it back to your camp, beach house, or hotel.

  Pros

  • Affordable
  • Quick-drying
  • Cute, strappy design

  Cons

  • Runs slightly large, according to Zappos reviewers

  It’s easy to see why one SELF editor likes this pair of shoes from Teva: They’re supportive (but not clunky) and a great value. The Voya Infinity should work for just about any trip you might take during the warmer months, although they’re especially suited for beach getaways—you can wear them through the water or on a boat without worrying about soaked-through straps.

  Hoka

  Transport GTX

  Pros

  • Great traction
  • Convenient slip-on design
  • APMA seal of approval

  Cons

  • Runs small, according to Hoka reviewers

  Part trail shoe, part standard sneaker, Hoka’s Transport GTX is a great pick if you’re headed somewhere rainy. It has a Gore-Tex lining to keep your feet dry and a rugged rubber outsole to help you keep your balance on slippery surfaces. The lace system has toggles that are easy to tighten when you want a snug fit and loosen in seconds when you’re ready to kick back and relax.

  Like many Hoka sneakers, this one also has a seal of approval from the American Podiatric Medical Association (APMA), meaning podiatrists have agreed that its design is good for your feet. In other words, you may have to brave the elements, but at least you can stroll comfortably.

  Pros

  • Good traction
  • Waterproof but breathable
  • Stylish

  Cons

  • Not enough protection or ankle support for challenging trails

  If you’re planning to spend your mornings in the woods and the rest of the day trekking around town, the Sneaker Award–winning Pegasus Trail 4 should be your go-to. Our tester wore hers on damp days over muddy terrain, and she stayed comfortable, dry, and stable.

  Despite the shoe’s waterproof lining, her toes didn’t feel trapped or too sweaty at any point. Plus, she loved the design so much that she debated buying another pair just for the style points, noting that the Pegasus Trail 4 wouldn’t look out of place at brunch.

  Another SELF staffer favorite, the Tree Runners from Allbirds are one editor’s go-to shoe for traveling. She likes that her feet don’t overheat in them, even after long days spent wandering around new cities.

  Campo

  Pros

  • Stylish
  • Durable leather upper and rubber outsole

  Cons

  • Some Nordstrom reviewers say the tongue is stiff

  The Campo is truly versatile when it comes to styling—you could easily pair these with jeans, leggings, or a sundress to feel comfy and cool at the same time.

  Cons
