Find Your Perfect Pair of Walking Shoes

Our walking shoes collection has it all—from soft suede and sturdy full-grain leather to waterproof styles and lightweight options for warmer days.

Whether you’re after modern leisure looks or something more classic, we’ve got shoes for both men and women in a range of sizes and colours. And with top brands like Cotswold, Helly Hansen, and Hoggs of Fife, you know you’re getting quality that lasts.

 

What Exactly Are Walking Shoes?

You may be thinking, “Aren’t all shoes for walking?” - and it's a common question! But walking shoes, also known as hiking shoes, are designed to give you more support and flexibility than your average trainers, sneakers, or running shoes, without the bulk of a full-on boot.

The right pair can make all the difference between an enjoyable walk and one that has you limping home. They support your foot, cushion your steps, and help prevent those pesky aches and pains. The grippy outsoles provide excellent traction on rugged terrains, and if you go for waterproof walking shoes, they keep your feet dry too! 

So, if you’re planning on sticking to well-maintained trails, hiking shoes are a great choice. But if you’re heading off the beaten track or need something sturdier, you might want to consider walking boots. And hey, we’ve got plenty of those too!

 

What Features Should You Look for in Walking Shoes?

First off, look for shoes with cushioned insoles, good arch support, and shock-absorbing midsoles. These will make a big difference on those longer walks, where you want to keep your feet feeling fresh, not fatigued.

Next, think about the grip. A durable rubber outsole with a good tread pattern is essential for staying steady on all kinds of surfaces, whether it’s a grassy hill or a gravelly path. If you’re walking on tricky ground, you’ll need that extra bit of stability.

Breathability is also a must, especially for warmer days or long treks. Look for shoes with mesh panels or moisture-wicking linings to keep your feet cool and dry. But don’t forget waterproofing, either! British weather can change in a heartbeat, and having waterproof walking shoes gives you the confidence to take on any forecast.

Finally, don’t overlook durability. A well-made pair of shoes is worth every penny when they're still going strong after miles of wear.

 

Getting the Right Fit

If you’re wondering how they should feel, think comfy but secure, with a bit of wiggle room at the front - especially if you’ve got wide feet or need more space in the toe box. Your walking shoes should fit comfortably, with plenty of space for your big toe to move freely. And don’t forget that feet tend to swell during the day, so it’s a smart move to try them on in the afternoon.

Lacing your shoes might seem like a no-brainer, but there’s actually a bit of an art to it. The way you lace up can make all the difference in how your shoes feel during a long walk. Too tight, and you’re asking for blisters; too loose, and your feet might start sliding around. Play around with different lacing styles until you find one that makes your feet happy—it’s worth the extra minute or two.

 

How Should You Break in Your New Walking Shoes?

Start by wearing them around the house or on short walks to get them used to your feet (and vice versa). A bit of patience goes a long way - this will help prevent foot pain or discomfort on those first few outings.

Gradually increase the distance, and before you know it, they’ll feel like they were made just for you.

 

Are There Specific Hiking Shoes for Different Terrains?

For well-kept trails or country lanes, lightweight walking shoes with flexible soles are just the ticket, as they’ll give you plenty of comfort for all-day wear without feeling too bulky.

If you’re heading onto rocky ground or steeper inclines, you’ll want a pair with tougher, grippy outsoles for better traction. These will help you keep your footing on uneven terrain, and they tend to be a bit more supportive around the ankles, too.

And if you’re braving the boggy moorlands or wet weather (let’s be honest, it’s Britain—chances are you will), waterproof walking shoes are always a great pick. 

 

How to Clean Your Walking Shoes

When you find a pair of super comfortable shoes you love, you want them to last forever, right?

While perhaps they won’t quite last a lifetime, a good pair of hiking shoes should see you through around 300 to 500 miles. Of course, that depends on where and how often you’re wearing them. If you’re taking them out on rough trails or long distances every weekend, they might wear out a bit quicker. But with a bit of care, you can definitely extend their lifespan.

Now, onto the big question - can you toss your walking shoes in the washing machine?

It’s tempting, especially after a muddy trek, but it’s usually not the best idea. The washing machine can be pretty rough on them, and you don’t want to mess up those cushioned insoles or waterproof membranes.

Instead, give them a good wipe down with some warm water and mild soap or shoe cleaner, then let them air dry. They’ll be as good as new in no time!
