The Best Booties for Travel
The Best Booties for Travel
Booties are the ultimate travel companion. They deliver just-right structure and support, can be dressed up or down, and are on-trend in destinations around the world. Here are five booties that are especially great for travel:
Lucky Brand Basel
Chic, sleek, and ready for urban adventure—that’s the Lucky Brand Basel bootie. This leather bootie features round-toe construction, a low stacked heel, and cushioned footbed for comfortable wear all day. The double zipper effectively turns these booties into slip-ons, which makes for easy off/on at airport security and during long flights.
SOREL Emelie Chelsea
The SOREL Emelie Chelsea will keep you dry and steady in all kinds of weather. The seam-sealed waterproof construction keeps out rain, puddles, and slush; and molded rubber outsole ensures serious grip, even on slippery surfaces. Inside the boot, though, is where the magic really happens—all-day wear is a breeze thanks to this bootie's comfort lining and removable EVA footbed with a microfleece lining.
Rockport Cobb Hill Nicole
Cobb Hill footwear has earned a reputation among frequent travelers for its on-trend silhouettes and comfortable fit. The Cobb Hill Nicole stands out with pleated detailing and a decorative heel strap. But for travelers, the real selling points are less visible: the flexible but supportive outsole features a stability shank for arch support, and the EVA foam footbed delivers sneaker-like cushioning. The slight heel adds a bit of height without sacrificing back or leg comfort.
David Tate Hope
Ready for a bootie that goes from day to night, and from office to big-night-out without skipping a beat? This pair from David Tate elevates the bootie concept with a two-inch block heel, suede and leather detailing, and a slightly lower cut that walks the line between shoe and boot. The interior is designed with comfort in mind—features include an elastic instep, soft leather lining, and cushioned footbed.
Walking Cradles Kason
Classic, elegant, and ready to support you on your world travels, Walking Cradles’ Kason bootie pairs well with a variety of daytime looks. And with its low stacked heel, round toe, cushioned footbed, and faux-fur lining, comfort is built into every pair. These booties come in brown or black and feature subtle detailing like unexpectedly intricate zipper pulls that add a touch of originality without being too flashy.
