Every summer trip has the same villain and it isn’t the middle seat — it’s sore feet by day two. Between airport marathons, theme park miles and beach boardwalks, whoever’s shoes give out first sets the mood for the whole crew.
So this year we rounded up the comfiest travel shoes from Skechers — The Comfort Technology Company® — for every member of the family. Slip-ons you don’t have to bend over to put on (game-changer in the TSA line), sandals with real arch support, and sneakers cushioned enough for a full day of sightseeing.
🏷️ Sale alert: Skechers is running up to 40% off select styles right now (prices as marked) — and Skechers Plus members (free to join) get an extra 20% off full-price styles with code SUMMER. Sale prices below were verified today.
In a hurry? Jump straight to your traveler: the flip-flop upgrade for her, the all-day sightseeing sandal, his pool-to-dinner sandal (on sale: $55.99, reg. $75), or the kids’ styles that end the ‘my feet hurt’ chorus.
For Her: Sandals That Can Actually Keep Up
If the flip-flop is your summer staple, meet its upgrade (pictured above): the Skechers Slide-Ups™ Relaxed Fit®: Asana Luxe – Vibrant Beauty. A plush Luxe Foam® cushioned footbed, a rhinestone adjustable slider and floral-print straps make it the rare sandal that works for the resort pool and dinner after.
Prefer something dressier? The Arch Fit® Beverlee 2.0 – Tigger Posse 2.0 (on sale: $44.99, reg. $60) is a vegan sandal with a supportive Arch Fit® footbed and embroidered, rhinestone straps — vacation-outfit ready without punishing your arches.
For the big step-count days, our pick is the Hands Free Slip-ins® Max Cushioning Elite™ 2.0 Sandal – Emery — a lightweight, vegan sandal built on Skechers’ Max Cushioning® midsole. Adjust the instep strap once and just slip in for the rest of the trip.
And for travel days themselves: the Hands Free Slip-ins®: Glide-Step® Altus sneaker, with a Heel Pillow®, breathable mesh and Air-Cooled Memory Foam® — perfect for hopping between terminals.
For Him: From Poolside to Trailhead
The GO WALK® Glide-Step® 2.0 Sandal – Chandler (pictured above) is his three-point sandal for sunny days, with a contoured Goga Mat® footbed and cushioned Glide-Step® midsole.
If his idea of unwinding involves a trail, the Skech-Air® Envoy – Buyers Peak (on sale: $70.99, reg. $95) brings a water-repellent leather upper, a visible Skech-Air® airbag and a Goodyear® rubber outsole with real traction.
And for everything in between, the GO WALK 8™ (on sale: $63.99, reg. $85) is the slip-on sneaker he’ll wear the entire trip — high-rebound Ultra Pillars® that adapt to every step, no laces required.
For the Kids: No More ‘My Feet Hurt’
For pool days, the Foamies®: Zaggle – Tiny Tides (pictured above) is machine-washable — parents, rejoice — with a convertible heel strap that keeps them secure on wet ground, and three fun colors to fight over.
The GO WALK Glide-Step 2.0™ Sandal – Core Walk (on sale: $31.99, reg. $45) has adaptable instep straps and Glide-Step® cushioning that holds up whether they’re strolling the beach or racing through an airport.
Sneaker kids are covered too: the Slip-ins®: Summits (fixed bungee laces + Air-Cooled Memory Foam®) means they can put their own shoes on, and the sporty Microspec Max Velocity with its visible air-pillar midsole will top any packing list.
For the Whole Family: The Long-Haul Flight Shoe
Long road trip or red-eye ahead? The Hands Free Slip-ins®: Contour Foam™ – Cozy Fit® (pictured above) comes in the whole family’s sizes and feels, in Skechers’ words, like a puffer jacket made for your feet. First-class comfort, economy ticket.
Whichever traveler you’re shopping for, the whole Summer Travel Essentials collection is live now — and summer trips wait for no one.
