Ok, we know it might sound crazy, but we can’t tell you how many times we’ve gone on a Disney World vacation and panic bought shoes!
Cinderella Castle
There have been too many times when we forget to pack more until we’re sitting on the plane, looking down, and realizing it’s just our Toms/Crocs/flip flops on our feet. If you can relate, don’t worry! First, you’re not alone. Second, because we’ve been there too many times, we have a list of the go-to panic buys that you should grab BEFORE your Disney World vacation!
Get these HOKA Clifton 10’s
Lots of support!
You know we love HOKA shoes, so we have to recommend these HOKA Clifton 10 Sneakers! We can’t stress enough how much comfort and cushioning this shoe has to offer. The sneakers deliver ultralight cushioning that has made the Clifton a fan favorite for us. Without even trying them on, you can tell the sole offers extra comfort. Even though they’re a little more expensive, we find they’re a good investment.
These Avia Sneakers are perfect!
Avia Women’s Athletic Jumbo Lite
These Avia Women’s Athletic Jumbo Lite Runners are genuinely perfect! They’re basic running shoes, but have a nice slim fit to them and a cushioned heel for running support. The biggest pro to these has to be the comfort and how they will conform to your feet after you’ve worn them for a while. They’re very similar comfort-wise to the HOKA Clifton 10s that we adore, but these are cheaper! Seriously, when you see the price, you’ll be shocked — it’s why we always get them!
Sunscreen is so important!
WEAR YOUR SUNSCREEN!
If we’ve had to panic buy shoes before, you can believe that we’ve had to panic buy other essentials as well. One of them is this Coppertone Every Tone Sunscreen! This moisturizing sunscreen blends in clear and stays clear on all skin tones, leaving behind no white residue. The SPF 50 sunscreen also works as a face sunscreen and is great for everyday use.
Or, you can grab this Mickey Mouse Sweatshirt

Have we panic-bought Disney clothes, or are we just trying to find an excuse to buy more Disney merch? Regardless, sometimes Florida hits you with that cold spell out of nowhere (like it has been), and since you’re coming to Florida, you realize you didn’t bring a sweater. Amazon has some great options, including this Classic Mickey Mouse Sweatshirt! You can get it for cheaper here than at the park.
Don’t forget about the FROGG TOGG Poncho
Frogg Toggs Poncho
Speaking of weather, the Frogg Togg Waterproof Poncho is the perfect Disney essential! We have ours in pink, but there are many color variations. When it comes to Disney World trips, we all know you can NEVER count out the chance of rain. We find that these ponchos always come in handy. It’s 100% waterproof and very breathable. It’s super easy to put on, and has a pull-over hood, which is great for those downpours!
And finally, these Polarized Sunglasses

We’ve all forgotten sunglasses when going to Disney World. Heck, we’ve forgotten them when going for a drive. If that’s you, order these KALIYADI Polarized Sunglasses! They’re for both men and women, and are great for blocking the UV. You get two sunglasses in a pack at an unbelievable price — especially at 18% off!
