This time of year we are ready to get our lighter footwear out and there is no shortage of fitness footwear choose from. Plenty of new and classic styles have emerged on-trend for this spring/summer.

For fitness, try these already tested recent recommendations for ideas – 10 best workout shoes for women or 10 best running shoes for women or 13 best sneakers for every type of runner or 15 running shoes that are both practical and chic or 22 Best Sneakers for Women in 2024 (msn.com).

There is no doubt that sneakers are more versatile than ever. So there is no reason why we can’t wear these shoes as casual all-day wear.

Looking for comfort and breathability? Shoes which are light enough for the heat but hold up well all season long? We checked out some more walking shoes for all day comfort and versatility – a one-shoe-fits-all approach – taking you from the parks, to the streets, to the shops, whether you need them to hop on your bike, play tennis or pickleball, or run errands – for all-day out-and-about adventure. When our feet are comfortable, we can spend more time enjoying our days and making the most out of a season that always seems too short.
