Versatility

 

Women’s leather boots make the best travel shoes for city travel, and are perfect for trips to Europe, North America, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa.

Boots provide far more stability and support than regular shoes, giving you a much higher degree of support and protection to your ankle and foot. Many boots can be surprisingly lightweight, making them both easy to walk in and easy to transport so you don’t have to worry about the extra baggage weight when packing.

Boots are also extremely versatile. Allowing for excessive walking, light hiking, and even nightlife, they can also easily transition from a day look to a night look. This makes boots a great choice for any occasion and can compliment any outfit. Designed to withstand all elements and prevent the entry of water, snow or dirt,  ensuring that your feet remain dry and warm (nothing puts a damper on your trip like wet feet).

 

Most travelers agree that three is the magic number when it comes to packing shoes. Learn more about how to create a capsule wardrobe with just three pairs of shoes!

The Benefits of Leather

 

Leather is a fantastic option for boots as they are soft and waterproof, while allowing for breathability and durability. Opt for black or dark brown leather as these colors are less obtrusive and easy to match with any outfit. In addition they are also forgiving with any dirt that you may encounter during your travels.

For nearly every trip in metropolitan cities, you’ll need a pair of women’s leather boots. These sturdy shoes make the best travel footwear because they’re perfect for walking and every day use. If your anticipated activities involve a lot of exercise and a lot of walking or the use public transportation, then boots are what you need!

In fact, even if you plan to travel low-key it would still be beneficial to bring boots. They are undoubtedly my top pick when it comes to stylish travel shoes as they are exceptionally comfortable and create a classic casual chic look.

When shopping for leather boots, check to see how easily they come on and off. You do not want boots that you have to battle to put on or take off on vacation.
