10 Cute Walking Shoes Will Make You Look Like a Local in Europe, According to a Writer From Rome

"As a travel writer from Rome, I've come to learn that staying comfortable is key to maximizing your European travel experience. No one wants to be hobbling in pain, especially on uneven, historic cobblestone streets, trying to cram in a busy day of sightseeing. But prioritizing comfort doesn't necessarily mean you need to forfeit style; many walking shoes are supportive, stylish, and won't make you stand out as a tourist."

"Suede clogs are all the rage these days, and for good reason. They're comfortable and stylish, and are a great shoe for the fall. This pair from Amazon is crafted entirely out of genuine suede and features adjustable metal buckle straps. Their cork footbed has a deep heel cup that hugs your feet to provide good cushioning. Best of all: they're super lightweight and won't take up too much room in your suitcase."

Comfortable, supportive, and stylish shoes enable travelers to explore European cities and cobblestone streets without pain. Prioritizing comfort can still preserve style through options like leather booties, suede clogs, sleek sneakers, and chunky loafers. Affordable options start at $22, making travel footwear accessible. Genuine suede clogs with adjustable metal buckles and cork footbeds provide cushioning and packability. Mary Jane ballet flats inspired by Italian friulane offer color and comfort for casual or sophisticated occasions at budget prices. Podiatrist-approved lace sneakers deliver sleek looks with day-long comfort suitable for high step counts while sightseeking.
