Travel Shoes

How are Rothy’s travel shoes different from other types of shoes?

The main difference between travel shoes and your day-to-day shoes is functionality. The best type of travel shoe should be versatile - suitable for both daily use and for long days sightseeing - and should remain comfortable and stylish, ready to pair with any outfits in your suitcase. Rothy’s travel shoes are equally comfortable and stylish, featuring ultra-comfortable footbeds for long days on your feet. Shoes that are lightweight and easily packable are also great for travel when you are limited on luggage space.

What qualities should I look for when buying travel shoes?

The most important qualities to consider when looking for travel shoes are comfort, versatility and durability without compromising on style. Consider seasonality when researching travel shoes. The perfect shoes for a summer vacation or good travel sandals for a beach getaway may not be as suitable in comparison to comfortable walking shoes for a city break. Comfortable travel shoes are a high priority, so be sure to check out our Fit Guide and size charts to find the perfect fit.

Can I buy comfortable flats for travel?

Yes, Rothy’s carries travel flats in a variety of styles. Mary-Jane flats are easy to slip on and off at the airport, making them a comfortable and stylish option for the flight. The Daily Flat is an ideal women’s travel shoe both for days in transit and sightseeing or exploring. Packing a pair of stylish flats for your trip is essential, since they are great day to night shoes, and work well for dinners or special occasions during your trip. Travel sneakers are a great alternative to flats, with styles for both men and women, making them an easy choice for getting out of the airport and into vacation mode without needing to swap shoes at the hotel. Rothy’s Cruiser Collection also carries a variety of styles with quilted insoles, making them the perfect comfy travel shoes for long days of walking or sightseeing.

Are Rothy’s travel shoes washable?

Yes, all Rothy’s travel shoes - such as our men’s sneakers and women’s sandals are machine washable - so you won’t need to worry about dirt or sand clinging in transit. Simply throw your shoes in the wash and they’ll come out looking good as new.

What other travel products and accessories does Rothy’s carry?

Rothy’s collection of travel bags is perfect for week-long stays or shorter weekend breaks, and our assortment of small accessories, including crossbody bags or The Universal Pouch makes organizing your travel documents easy.
