What are the best walking Sandals for women?

What can you do during the increasing heat wave? As temperatures reach their peak, sandals become the go-to option. But can you give them a contemporary touch?  Or, is it possible to stay classyandup-to-date? Certainly, as long as you combine airy materials with a return to sturdy materials, you are good to go.

The second issue is comfort. Sandals tend to have a loose grip on your ankles, causing you to flail about in search of proper footing. However, the ideal pair ofsandals for women will provide a secure fit, allowing you to take confident steps and simultaneously strengthen your muscles.

What’s the ideal experience on a walk?

We undoubtedly know what the idealsandals for women will never do when you take them out. Firstly, they will not leave you barefoot in the middle of the street. They will also not suffocate your toes and heels - having enough space to move is essential. Lastly, they won’t have bands that are too wide or made from poor-quality materials. Such fabrics have the unfortunate effect of overheating your foot. 

However, negative statements aside, the ideal pair ofwomen sandals will absolutely bring a positive change to your overall walking experience. We are talking about the following benefits:

• improved posture
• alleviation of foot and back pain 
• fewer blisters 
• increased muscle control and development
• fewer injuries 

There are many benefits, as you can see. But there are just as many criteria you need to consider when choosing your summer footwear.

 

Factors to Consider When Choosing Walking Sandals for Women

A design and functionality issue we often see insandals for women is that they make for a flat step. The lack of support is unpleasant at best, and it can lead to podiatric complications at worst. 

Having arch support ensures your sole gets a design that favors its natural arch. The effect is walking as if you were barefoot. And not in an oops-I-feel-the-hot-concrete sort of way! Instead, in a freeing way that allows for ample movement and long walks that will make you feel energized and help maintain your fitness.

Having non-supportive shoes can lead to rapid overexertion of your joints and toes, which is dire from a podiatric standpoint.

 

The increased risk of bunions

For instance, bunions are likely the result of non-supportive shoes. This condition is hard to handle both physically and aesthetically—it consists of a painful bump that appears near your big toe. As a result, it becomes increasingly difficult to put shoes on and to go for a walk. 

While the causes of bunions are still nebulous at times, pressure on the big toe seems to be a possible cause. When wearing non-supportivewomen sandals, the tendency is to step with your big toe first to ensure a modicum of balance.

Other frequent health complications

Constant contact and friction can also lead to blistering at times. Continued stress on areas with blistering can, in turn, lead to serious injury and scarring. 

Besides, excessive sweat buildup can turn into a severe case of athlete’s foot. This fungal infection is highly persistent. Without proper treatment and footwear, it can affect your toes and toenails for years. Certain materials, like letter or polyester, can lead to overheating and excessive sweating. Besides, leather tends to soak up moisture and also take on a particularly undesirable smell. 

If you already struggle with foot deformities, it’s also essential to pick comfortablewomen sandals. Unstable footwear will only increase discomfort and pain, and in a worst-case scenario, it may even worsen the initial deformity.

Remember this

If you have foot deformities, you must keep close contact with your podiatrist. They can help you pick footwear that is most accommodating for your condition. Purchasing sandals for women without medical advice can lead to many unpleasant experiences. 

While the sandals we promote are meant to maximize comfort for all wearers, it’s advisable to get your doctor’s approval before making the purchase.

Get the perfect price-to-quality ratio

Many footwear collections have inflated prices. The reasons can be tied to quality, but more often than not, it’s simply the result of careful and diligent branding. 

Our recommendation is to go for fiber sandals with adequate arching. Believe it or not, they are available even at accessible prices. Sandals are undoubtedly an investment in this heat, but you can invest a bit less for more comfort.

I got a pair of Soulmate and a pair of Seastar and brought it with me to a trip in Toronto. Walked around a lot and ended with no blister. There are no arch support for these sandals and yet it is comfortable and does worked really well for my feet! I’m going to be getting a couple more pairs! It was raining at one point when we were walking downtown and the cork base dried pretty quickly too (it was in the 80’s F) and didn’t leave any stains.

I saw a FB ad for thesewomen sandals and how many people seemed to rave about the comfortability. The comments looked legit and not staged, so I decided to give it a try. The first pair arrived quickly, fit perfectly, and I was SHOCKED at how I could easily walk in them all day!!! Being a mom of a toddler, we are on a lot of walking adventures in the summer. I ordered a second pair in a different style and color because I was so pleased. Second pair as great as the first. I’m now a loyal fan of the brand.

How to Care for and Maintain Walking Sandals for Women

To keep your Bokyna sandals in great condition, follow these steps for cleaning and care:

1. Clean your sandals by hand-washing them gently with a mild detergent and cold water. Use a soft cloth or brush to remove any dirt or debris from the sandals.

2. Avoid using bleach or any corrosive chemical cleaners, as they may cause damage to the straps and other materials of the sandals.

3. It's important not to wash yourwomen sandals in the dishwasher, as the high heat and water pressure can harm the adhesive that secures the outsoles.

4. After cleaning, opt for air drying instead of using a dryer or placing them near a heat source. This will help preserve the materials and prevent any potential damage from heat exposure.

You should also wear sandals carefully. Always apply heel and toe lotion - excessive sweat can lead to dry feet and skin peeling. Besides, sweating creates a suitable environment for fungi and bacteria, which will do nothing but help maintain unpleasant smells and podiatric afflictions.

FAQs

Are sandals ok for long walks?

Yes, sandals can be okay for long walks if they are designed with proper support and comfort in mind. Look forsandals for women with good arch support, cushioned soles, and adjustable straps to ensure a secure fit. Our sandals are specifically handmade for extended wear, featuring durable materials and ergonomic designs that help prevent discomfort and provide the necessary support for your feet during long walks.

What shoes do podiatrists not recommend?

Podiatrists typically do not recommend wearing high heels,or shoes with poor arch support for extended periods. High heels can cause strain on the toes and balls of the feet, leading to discomfort and potential long-term issues like bunions or hammertoes.

Do you wear socks with walking sandals?

Wearing socks with walking sandals is a matter of personal preference and comfort. Some people prefer to wear socks with their walking sandals for added cushioning, moisture-wicking, and to prevent chafing. This can be especially beneficial in cooler weather or during long walks. On the other hand, many people enjoy the breathability and freedom of wearing walking sandals without socks, particularly in warmer weather. If you choose to wear socks, opt for moisture-wicking materials like Merino wool to keep your feet dry and comfortable.
