Your Guide to the Best Shoes for Destination Travel

Step into adventure with footwear that keeps you comfortable, wherever your journey takes you.

Overview

Traveling should be about creating unforgettable memories, not worrying about aching feet. Whether you’re wandering cobblestone streets in Europe, tackling the endless paths of a theme park, or exploring the sights of a bustling city, the right footwear can make all the difference.

This guide helps you choose shoes tailored to your travel needs, offering insights into essential features like shock absorption, arch support, and cushioning. Discover how these elements can keep your feet comfortable and supported through long days of walking and standing, ensuring you stay focused on the adventure at hand.

No matter your destination, this guide equips you with the knowledge to prepare confidently for your next journey. Experience every step with ease and comfort as you explore the world.

  • Europe

    Traveling through Europe is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that one should be well-prepared for.

    Treading along the European cityscapes, old infrastructures, and cobblestone streets are not easy. You need all the foot support you can get with the right pair of shoes.

    You wouldn’t want to waste a second of your trip with the wrong pair of footwear that could cause blisters, foot pain, and ankle injuries. These will ruin the trip of a lifetime, and you could end up regretting not bringing a more comfortable pair of shoes with you.

  • Disney

    The day has finally arrived—you’ve booked your tickets to the Happiest Place on Earth. You’re ready for some down time, your family is already plotting their must-see rides, and your kids can’t wait to meet Mickey.

    Let’s make sure your feet are equipped for the mission with good shoes! Comfortable, theme-park-ready Disney sneakers are a must for walking the many miles set before you.

    Whether you’re headed to Walt Disney World in Florida, Disneyland in California, or the water parks, the best shoes for Disney World and Disneyland are those that can stand up to some pretty intense mileage.

    The best Disney shoes for adults are those that feature shock-absorption, arch support, and comfortable cushion to keep your feet happy while walking and standing in line.

Three Layers of Support

At KURU, we pride ourselves on our unique approach to shoe design. We believe that shoes should be shaped to fit the natural contours of your feet, which is why we create every pair in three distinct support layers, not just an insole.

Our revolutionary ergonomic design starts with a curved footbed and adds unparalleled triple-layer support that includes shock-absorbing KURUCLOUD, heel-cupping KURUSOLE, and arch-supporting ULTIMATE INSOLES. The result? Shoes that are so comfortable you’ll stop thinking about your feet.

Travel bestie! This sandal saved my summer. I took a trip abroad this summer, during a lot of cold and rainy weather. When I finally got somewhere warm, and my feet just couldn't take any more of being in my gore-tex sneakers, I put on these sandals. They were absolutely amazing and heaven sent. They also kick butt on cobblestone and are super supportive. Get yourself a pair and thank yourself!"

Great for travel! I bought these for a trip to Europe, which means walking. I wasn't sure I'd be able to do it since my feel hurt after about an hour of regular walking. I researched for months, tried a few and finally got two pairs of KURUs in a bundle and man, am I ever glad I did. The ATOM Trail are sturdy enough for all the different types of situations you'll find yourself in while on vacation, great for all day walking but also for seeing those out of the way places, like cliffs or mountains. Now I'm using them for walking the dog and I love them!"

Amazing fit and comfort. I wore this pair for a two-week European trip to Greece and Ireland recently. We walked on uneven ground, and original Roman stone paths. We walked in hot weather in Greece and cold rainy weather in Ireland. My feet never got hot or wet/cold. (I did spray KURU sealer on them before I left.) These are definitely my new travel shoe. Nothing else needed as they look good with jeans and travel pants. For the first time in forever, my feet, knees, and legs did not have any pain when traveling. Highly recommend!"
