Over the past 6 months, I’ve put well over a hundred miles on these shoes. And not once have my feet hurt.
When I travel, my favorite way to explore each new place is on foot. You’re able to see so much more than you might see from a car and you can often get to places you might not otherwise find or access.
Today’s giveaway is Day 9 of the Christmas Giveaways and it is for a pair of my beloved best ever walking shoes – or an Amazon gift card of equal value. I truly hope that the winner will love these shoes every single bit as much as I do!

Best Walking Shoes for Women
Despite the fact that I’m not a terribly fashionable person most of the time, I really dislike wearing tennis shoes for days on end.
In addition to that, tennis shoes are always bulky to pack and I feel like they often scream tourist as well.
After this much wear, I can tell you beyond any doubt that these Remonte shoes are worth every single penny.
Best Walking Shoes
5 reasons I love my walking shoes:
- They’re comfortable for hours and miles of walking.
- They’re crazy lightweight shoes.
- They’re waterproof. (I wear them with these awesome no-show socks, but I can absolutely see wearing them with heavier socks in the winter.)
- They’re low profile and they pack small.
- The arch support is terrific with an excellent foot pad.
If ever there was a blog post that made me feel somewhat old, this might be the one. As I wax eloquent on the awesomeness of a pair of great walking shoes, I’m laughing at myself and I don’t even care.
I did a great deal of research and I tried on endless shoes before settling on these and I LOVE them.
In all seriousness, these shoes are one of the best travel purchases I made this year.
Walking Shoes for Travel
While planning our trip to Europe I knew that I’d want a solid shoe for walking days on end.
My favorite part of cruising is the ability to visit so many different places without the hassle of figuring out your transportation or lodging for each new city.
We visited 9 ports and 10 European cities over the past two weeks: London in England, Guernsey in the Channel Islands, Dublin, and Belfast in Ireland, Kirkwall in the Scottish Orkney Islands, Glasgow, Invergordon, and Edinborough in Scotland, Giverny and Rouen in France.
Once we hit each port, we hit the street walking. We typically schedule an excursion for half a day or so and then wander through the city until it is time to be back at port.
Cruising really does give you the best of both worlds. You have so many conveniences of home (and not dealing with different hotels) along with the fun of exploring so many new places.

Walking in parks
Patricia Urquhart says
They look wonderful. It’s so hard to find a great walking shoe. It’s wonderful to hear from someone who has walked in the shoes how great they are.
Julie Ludwig says
Walk at the beach (when I’m close to one!)
Kelly Meyers says
I’d walk around my neighborhood! I’d love to meet all my neighbors!
Patt Mondik says
These shoes look fantastic! I can see where they would give you the support you need for constant use.
I live near the beach and we have a bluff that intersects with the Pacific Trail…these would keep my footing solid along the way.
Thank you for the share!
Jacquelyn says
I love walking on the beach!
Beth B says
I like to walk through my neighborhood or on the track at our local Y. It’s good for me – just need more discipline to do it!
Phyllis Farris says
This is just what I need. I must have a comfortable shoe when I go to the mall or do grocery shopping since it is my feet that I suffer with the most. Finding a comfortable shoe is hard and this may solve my problem.
Maggie Broglin says
My most favorite walks are on the beach, searching for treasured sea glass.

Katie says
I would love to walk all over the U.S! I am the type of person that would go on walks 24/7 if I could. In the summer I walk around my town even though I drive. I would love to go explore parks closer to me and also visit different places in the U.S, maybe even out of the country! Walking through forests sounds fun even different trails. I would love to just go explore the nature everywhere along with different towns!
JoAnn Webb says
Walk thru the Holy Land this spring.
Nancy Anne White says
Currently, my favorite walking place is the apartment complex I live in. There are 7 buildings on a natural lake filled with waterfowl and in a park like setting. It’s so quiet, peaceful and beautiful! Can actually walk a fair distance as part of the lake is surrounded by the complex so you can’t get directly “there from here” without going around!
Patty Pearson says
North Georgia mountains to see the waterfalls!!
Lis Anna-Langston says
Hitting the trails with my love bunny dog who loves the feel of sand in-between her toes.
Louise Inscoe says
I like to walk around my neighborhood. You get exercise and a chance to wave or speak to everyone along the way.
Rebecca Wright says
I love walking in the woods
Donna Thornton says
These shoes look very comfortable and very supportive as well. I always think of my daughter first with what will help her through her autoimmune diseases.
Rebecca Sannes says
I’d love to visit as many national parks as possible!
