Travel Shoes for Every Globetrotter
Every budding globetrotter needs the correct travel shoes when embarking on their next adventure. From hitting the cool, crisp slopes, to sunbathing on golden sands. Having a travel shoe which can do it all is vital. Explore the necessities your feet need to be comfortable throughout your entire trip. Sightseeing in a new city has never been so comfortable!
WHAT ARE TRAVEL SHOES?
Travel shoes are a necessity for any trip you may embark upon. First and foremost they are shoes that provide comfort for your long days exploring new territories. This isn’t to say they can’t be stylish at the same time! More often than not travel shoes can be the foundation of your packing. They ensure your feet enjoy the journey you embark upon. You want them light enough to not weigh down your luggage but comfy enough so they support your feet. Finding a pair of travel shoes which are suitable can be a daunting task. Giesswien has an option for any trip. From the aeroplane, the cobbled streets, and an evening meal, we have shoes to do it all. Our men's sneakers and women's sneakers not only look great but can provide your feet with cushioning where you need it most. Simply slip them on and away you go.
LIGHTWEIGHT TRAVEL SNEAKERS
Backpacking, suitcase filling or an overnight bag, your travel shoes shouldn’t have to weigh down your luggage. Choosing a lightweight, breathable sneaker is easy with our choice of travel shoes. Our Merino Wool sneaker is the world's lightest merino shoe, weighing in at 160 grams. That equates to 120 paperclips or 150 colorful smarties. You may be wondering how it was possible to achieve such featherlight results? It is all thanks to a combination of high-quality merino wool and a flexible EVA sole.
WATER RESISTANT SNEAKERS FOR EVERY ADVENTURE
The perfect travel shoe will be able to withstand whatever weather conditions may come their way. Sun, snow and rain are just some of nature's expressions which can catch you off guard when you are least expecting it. Being prepared is the first cardinal rule of travel, which is why packing water resistant sneakers into your bag can save you from any misfortunes. At Giesswein we use high-quality merino wool for our travel shoes, which feature many great properties you may need while voyaging in a new place. Those properties include being water resistant and moisture wicking. Moisture wicking is the art of wicking excess moisture away from your feet, to leave them dry to touch. The excess moisture is transferred to the outer layer of the fabric where it can be evaporated. This feature is not only useful during the blazing heat when sweat starts to occur, but during the cooler climates too. Due to the thousands of tiny air pockets, during colder seasons, heat can be retained which allows your feet to stay warm. Never again will you have to purchase separate travel shoes based on opposite climates.
DITCH THE SOCKS IN ANY CLIMATE
When enjoying a warm, relaxing vacation, the odds of experiencing sweaty feet is likely. In most cases, sneakers require you to wear socks in order to feel comfortable and secure inside your travel shoe. This isn’t the case with our travel shoes. Thanks to the properties of merino wool, you can ditch the socks and enjoy the barefoot feeling all day. No more hot, sticky feet when exploring a new city because your sneakers allow your feet to breathe. Breathability is a vital aspect to any travel shoe, especially for the warmer climate adventures. So tie up your laces and embark on your next trip with fresh, healthy feet. Exploring has never been more enjoyable!
