When it comes to planning for the PERFECT Disney Parks day, some shoes are better than others…
You can often find us at the Disney Parks daily, trying out new souvenirs and essentials. We’re always trying to stay up-to-date on the latest planning trends and packing hacks, and recently, we wore three different pairs of shoes to the parks to end the debate of which shoe is best to wear during a long Disney Day. Read ahead to discover our verdict!
Winner: HOKA Women’s Clifton 10
These HOKA Clifton 10 Running Shoes can be a bit pricey, but they’re so worth it!
They’re quite bouncy with each step, providing a ton of support. These guys are also built for long-term wear. Ours are worn in but have maintained a firm look and a great spring in the heels and soles.
These shoes feel like they’re cradling your feet, and they provide a comfort that very few shoes have come close to matching. As such, these are our go-to shoes during our park days.
Runner-Up: Brooks Ghost 17 Neutral Shoes
The Brooks Ghost 17 was another shoe that impressed us quite a bit, finishing in 2nd place.
Typically marketed for runners, these shoes are still ideal for anyone taking on long stretches of physical activity. They’re comfy, can support long walks, and make your feet hold up over long stretches of time. These can get fairly pricey, but they DO deliver on the promise of comfort and ease.
There’s a balanced feel to the shoes, a blend of soft and dynamic cushioning that offers a smooth feeling with each step, and a comfy grip around the toe/front of the shoe that hugs but doesn’t squeeze too tightly. Brooks also offers a 90-day test run if you order them directly from the manufacturer. If you don’t love them, you’re able to return them for free. For us, these aren’t as comfortable as the HOKAs, but they’re DARN close!
3rd Place: New Balance Unisex 530 Turtledove/Angora Shoes
New Balance Unisex 530 Turtledove/Angora Shoes came in third for us!
These sneakers may not be as cushiony as the top two picks, but they are great for everyday life and cozy enough for the parks! These shoes provide ample support and enough cushion that gives you some spring in your step.
