Has severe RBF but is fairly jolly and carefree on the inside. Degree of life satisfaction is heavily influenced by food.

When on a holiday, nothing spoils the fun like uncomfortable footwear! As you'll be on your feet all-day, exploring attractions, cafe-hopping and dragging a heavy suitcase around, wearing comfortable shoes will make things much easier. This is especially so if you're travelling solo and have to be in top form and self-reliant.

This local brand has a reputation for shoes that are made for walking, and are suitable even for those with bunions or flat feet. But rather than the typical chunky orthopaedic shoes, Sunnytep's walkers, mules and sneakers look like any other collection of cute shoes that would measure up to - and complement - your coolest outfits.

When in doubt, you can never go wrong with versatile white sneakers like the Elevate Sneakers. These shoes come with structured insoles, stable arch support, acupressure massage points and a wide and anti-shock sole. The feet are also well-cushioned with ultra anti-shock gel cushioning as well as extra velvet cushioning at the heels.

Picturing summer dresses and sandals as your holiday outfit? ECCO's sandals are the ones to go for. Crafted from premium, full-grain leather, these sandals have an uncomplicated silhouette and yet still looks pretty and pair well with your most 'gram-worthy outfits.

The two front straps are padded for extra cushioning while the back strap adds stability and an anatomically moulded footbed provides support and comfort. The straps might look fussy, but the sandals are actually easy to slip on and off thanks to the discreet, quick-fastening closure.

#6 Birkenstock Mayari

Birkenstocks might have broken into the cool kids' wardrobe but at its core is comfort and practicality. The brand's sandals are the perfect travel footwear because the sole conforms to the shape of your foot for the ultimate support. We prefer the Mayari over the original Arizona style as it has thinner straps, lending it a more elegant look.

Get it at birkenstock.com for $149.

#7 Teva Flatform Universal

Travelling in heels is a hard no-go for most, but if you still want some added height, Teva has you covered.

Teva's flatform sandal has a solid 1.75-inch platform but remains comfortable enough even for concert-goers. The Universal Strapping System supports your foot and stands up to abuse, the moulded EVA midsole with heel cupping and arch cookie provides support, and a rubber outsole adds traction to your stride.

Get it at lazada.sg for $109.90.

#8 Melissa Ella Platforms

Another heeled option are these Ella Platforms. Made with Melissa's trademark MELFLEX material, a flexible and comfortable type of PVC, these jelly-like shoes come in cute bubblegum colours in addition to classic neutrals. Despite their chunky appearance, these platforms are light and comfy on the feet.

Get it at melissa.com.sg for $159.

Although all these shoes are designed to fit comfortably, do remember to break them in before you go on your holiday to avoid any surprise blisters!
