I’m not a big sneaker person; I usually don’t even pack a pair on trips! So when I do travel in sneakers, it’s going to be my old faithful: a very beat up pair of white Marnis.

My travel sneaker of choice is Jamie Haller’s Sachetto sneaker. I love the mix of nylon and suede; for someone like me who doesn’t gravitate towards a sporty sneaker, it feels elegant and infinitely more versatile.

Do I have any hikes planned for my upcoming vacation? No. Do I still love these gorpcore shoes for travel? Absolutely.
Sneakers are the only shoes I’ll wear through an airport, and these Salomons have quickly become my go-tos. They’re neutral enough to pair with most basic outfits, but add the perfect pop of color, and they’re instantly more fun. While my current vacation plan is mostly just to lay on the beach, it’s nice to know I’m prepared in case a spontaneous hike comes my way.

I have an obsession with the Wales Bonner x Adidas collab sneakers that borders on the pathological—I still have a (now very beaten up) pair of teal and brown SL72s from the first collection in 2020, and I must have picked up six or seven different styles in the years since. To me, they’re the perfect plane shoe—super comfy and easy to slip off, but stylish enough to not feel like a slob. There’s no better travel shoe than a retro sneaker.

I tend to wear my bulkiest shoes to the airport to save suitcase space, and in the summer, that shoe is a sneaker. These bright red Adidas SL72 runners are a nice alternative for anyone suffering from Samba fatigue. I’ve also had some form of an All Star in the rotation since high school; right now, it’s a navy high-top that I like to wear with poplin skirts and white dresses.
