The Ultimate Skechers Travel Shoe Guide: Pack Comfort & Style

From jetting across the skies to taking epic road trips, every adventure has one thing in common: you'll be on your feet. The goal is to maximize enjoyment, and sore, tired feet have no place on the itinerary. When you pack the right footwear, you’re investing in your entire travel experience.

As The Comfort Technology Company®, Skechers was built on innovation designed for every kind of journey. Our travel shoes take you from Seoul to Sydney with plush cushioning, certified support, and effortless convenience.

In this guide, we'll explore our core collections and technologies to help you choose the perfect Skechers for your next adventure.

Picture this: you’re at the airport security line, juggling your carry-on, laptop, and passport. The last thing you need is to struggle with your shoes. This is where Skechers Hands-Free Slip-ins® technology changes the game.

Designed for the modern traveler, our Skechers Slip-ins® are the perfect airport shoe. This technology is most beneficial in scenarios like:

• Navigating Airport Security: Breeze through checkpoints without ever needing to bend down or find a place to sit to put your shoes back on.

• Handling Luggage: When your hands are full with suitcases and bags, you can still step into your shoes effortlessly and get moving.

• Making Quick Stops: For road trips or errands in a new city, the step-in-and-go convenience is unmatched for getting in and out of the car.

Our unique Heel Pillow™ holds your foot securely in place, while the engineered heel panel acts like a built-in shoehorn. The result is a secure, comfortable fit that’s perfect for racing to your gate or strolling through a new city.

When you're navigating a new city on foot, proper support is non-negotiable. From museum floors to cobblestone streets, unforgiving surfaces can put a serious strain on your feet. A lack of arch support can quickly lead to fatigue, cutting your day of exploration short.

The Skechers Arch Fit® collection is the solution for all-day walking.

• Podiatrist-Certified Support: Developed with over 20 years of data, our Arch Fit® insole system is certified by podiatrists and has earned the APMA Seal of Acceptance.

• Reduces Impact & Disperses Weight: The patented shape molds to your foot, redistributing pressure across the arch and providing foundational stability that reduces the impact of each step.

• Removable & Washable: The insoles can be easily removed and machine-washed to keep them fresh throughout your travels.

This supportive system is available in a wide range of styles, from athletic sneakers to casual walkers and even sandals, ensuring you get certified comfort that matches your itinerary.

Some travel days demand an extra level of comfort. Think long hours at a theme park, a full day at a trade show, or exploring a city known for its concrete jungles. For these adventures, you need the cloud-like comfort of Skechers Max Cushioning®.

This collection is engineered to provide the highest level of plush comfort on even the harshest surfaces.

• High-Rebound Midsole: The innovative platform midsole offers a responsive, lightweight feel that absorbs maximum impact, making you feel like you're walking on air.

• Natural Rocker Technology: This feature promotes a smooth heel-to-toe transition, helping to propel you forward with natural momentum.

• Available Goodyear® Performance Outsoles: Many Max Cushioning® styles feature durable outsoles made with Goodyear® rubber for enhanced traction, stability, and durability on various surfaces.

When your itinerary calls for marathon-level walking, our cushioned shoes deliver premier shock absorption and that "stepping-on-a-cloud" feeling.

For travelers focused on walking, two of our standout collections are Skechers GO WALK® and Max Cushioning®. While both offer exceptional comfort, they cater to different priorities. Your choice depends on whether you value a lightweight, flexible feel or premier, heavy-duty cushioning.

Skechers GO WALK® is the champion of lightweight performance. These shoes are incredibly flexible and easy to pack, making them an optimal choice for travelers who want to save luggage space without sacrificing comfort. They provide responsive cushioning that’s perfect for varied daily activities, from city strolls to light workouts.
