Yes, we may sound like a broken record, but the shoes you wear to Disney World MATTER. Wearing the wrong shoes could literally make you miserable, and no one wants to be miserable in Disney World, right?
Here’s the deal…you’re going to do a lot of walking, probably more walking than you’re used to. Having the right pair of shoes means the difference between walking joyfully around Disney World or limping in complete misery about the parks. Yep, we’ve been there. In the summer, you also have to think about the heat. You’re going to want shoes that are light and give you feet room to breathe. Well, you’re in luck — because we’ve found the perfect summer shoes for you to wear in Disney World — and they’re all under $40.
We’ve got every kind of sandal you need, including some that are perfect for the pool or the end of your day to sandals you can spend all day in when you’re visiting the parks.
Get the Birkenstock Arizona Shearling Sandals
You already know Birkenstock sandals are great for comfort for just about all kinds of walking, but these shoes are also great to slide into for a pool day or water park day or just at the end of the day when you need to let your feet breathe. Even better? They come in a variety of colors.
Buy the Teva Universal Sandal
Okay, here’s another tried and true sandal. These classic athletic sandals not only hold up well, but they’re great for long days on your feet without making your feet sweat a ton like they might in sneakers.
Get the Crocs Getaway Strappy Sandals
Don’t worry Crocs fans, we didn’t forget about you. These sandals are lightweight, flexible, and ready to travel to wherever you want to go. They also look nice and come in a variety of colors. These aren’t your usual bulky Crocs!
