Comfortable walking shoes don’t have to be boring. These bright, strappy sandals from Birki are designed to help you maintain a natural walking gait—no “gripping” your toes as you walk like with flimsier sandals. The suede-covered cork and latex footbed features a deep heel cup, arch support, and a toe bar that helps keep your feet in alignment. A layer of memory foam also helps distribute pressure, heat, and moisture for an overall more comfortable experience. The neoprene straps have just enough give to maintain a comfortable fit even as your feet get tired after long days of sightseeing.

Made in Germany by a family-owned company known for their sustainability efforts, including letting cork trees regrow naturally after harvesting, powering factories using 100% solar energy, and making shoe boxes using 90% post-consumer waste.
