What shoes do you swear by?

Normally it’s Skechers for me too but Nike have a 30% sale at the minute so I’ve ordered a couple of pairs to try out when I hit the UK parks.

Havaianas for me, far too hot for trainers

Definitely love to wear skechers go walks. I tend to bring two pairs plus some sandals for around the hotels/pool areas. Top tip if you have the tendency for smelly feet (Mine are horrid!) buy a set of 'no stink' deoderisers, pop them in your shoes straight after getting back from the parks, they should get them nice and fresh again!

Skechers go walks and also Nike trainers. I like to take a couple of pairs because invariably one will get wet (storms, wet rides etc). I would definitely recommend wearing them in before you go!

For those of you liking the adidas ones then ASOS has some Ultraboost on sale. I just got these ones for £68 after using their ASOSnewfriend to get a firther 15% off the sale price. Am so delighted as they are fantastic trainers

You can even wear them on coasters (or at least I do).
I generally only wear Shoes (and long Chino's) on the flights, out of courtesy.

And to cap it all, they even have a bottle opener.

Totally agree. I've got far too many pairs of Reef Fannings, but like you, wear them most of the year. Expensive, but worth it.

Mostly Reef flip flops, pretty much wear those every day on holiday and then sometimes Nike vapor max fly knits, very light and comfy.

Reefs have ‘stood’ the test of time and been a top seller for decades. They are not a fad, not new, not even particularly trendy, simply as good as anything else on the market.. or better. In 20 or more years of ownership, they have never let me down and are only replaced when the heel area becomes compacted through hundreds of miles walked.
I pretty much only by Hush Puppy or Clark’s shoes for the same reasons.
If you look at any of the photos in any of my trip reports other than on flight day, you will find all of us in Reefs.. even in Washington, Boston, New York etc etc. On occasion, I have exceeded 35k steps in them in a day several times and only once had a snag.. in NY after a cloudburst when I got grit between straps and foot. I don’t even take them off on the biggest coasters other than on one occasion (Hulk) , when I was ordered to. I have never lost one, either.

I guess that whilst by no means a trendsetter of fashionista, I never have foot problems... And with Fannings, I even have a bottle opener with me at all times!
