Best sandals for walking

Reading time: 4 minutes | Last updated: July 9, 2025

A cute pair of sandals is great. But a cute pair that actually loves your feet? That’s a whole other level – and exactly what you’ll get with Wolky. We’ve been crafting comfort-forward shoes for over 40 years, and we’re proud to say: everything we do is designed in-house, made with premium materials, and obsessively focused on making walking feel like floating on clouds.

What to look for in the best sandals for walking?

You’re in the right spot at Wolky, because all of our sandals – no, scratch that – all of our shoes are made for walking. We don’t want you dragging your feet only halfway through the day. That’s just not comfortable. If you want the best sandals for walking that actually support your feet, keep an eye out for these key features:

1 | Supportive footbed

A well-contoured footbed supports your arches and cradles your feet to reduce fatigue – look for memory foam or cork with a suede lining for ultimate comfort.

2 | Adjustability

Straps with Velcro allow you to customize the fit throughout the day – essential when your feet swell in the heat or after a long walk.

3 | Shock-absorbing soles

A cushioned sole helps absorb impact with every step, protecting your joints and keeping your feet happy even on hard surfaces like pavement or concrete.

4 | Good grip

Look for a rubber or textured outsole that offers traction – especially important if you’ll be walking on uneven paths or wet surfaces.

5 | Breathable materials

High-quality leather let’s your feet breathe and helps keep things cool and fresh all day long.

6 | Lightweight design

The best sandals for walking feel like a natural extension of your foot – sturdy enough to support you, but light enough to never drag you down.
