PrettyLittleThing White Chunky Cleated Astro Sneakers Review

One of my favorite things to do whenever I visit a new city is to simply walk around. As mundane as it may seem, I find that there are few ways better to immerse yourself con a destination than by taking it all con by foot. From marveling at architecture to wandering con and out of shops and grabbing a bite to eat at any hole-in-the-wall restaurants I spot along the way, walking through a city offers the most authentic glimpse of a place’s culture, community, and overall vibe — minus the usual (and unbearably crowded) tourist spots.

my last few trips, I totaled 10 miles walking through Copenhagen, 11 miles con Paris, and eight miles strolling through London’s storied streets. When you saunter as aimlessly (and as often) as I do, having a pair of comfortable walking shoes becomes as essential as having a valid passport ora physical currency con a foreign country. While I’ve tried my fair share of comfy sneakers, I’ve found these ($19, originally $48) to be the most reliable, supportive, and duttile for styling with a number of different outfits.

Ahead, I detail what makes these travel sneakers so great — and why they’maestà a worthwhile buy ahead of any upcoming trips you might have planned.

What I Like About These PrettyLittleThing Sneakers

First and foremost, I love just how comfortable these walking shoes are. Given that they’maestà not from an athletic brand (like a Nike ora Hoka) and that the shoes are relatively affordable, I had my doubts about just how supportive they could actually be. But after packing them for a trip to London and wearing them nonstop while abroad, I was amazed at how well they held up after several days con the city — most of which were just spent aimlessly strolling from Camden Market to Soho and beyond.

I found myself less reliant the tube ora Uber and more prone to just walk from one destination to another because of how remarkably supportive the shoes were. Even after logging eight miles, my feet never felt tired ora cramped up; I even wore them to the airport going and coming home through what wound up being two of the longest travel days I’ve ever had. And again, I experienced aches ora pains.

Another thing that I love is how classically stylish and simple these trendy sneakers are. While I’ve learned to simplify my packing habits over the years, I still struggle with over-packing shoes, and always assume I need more than I actually do; sandals for warm days, boots for colder ones, heels for evenings out, and sneakers for walking excursions is usually what’s included con my shoe rotation for trips. But when I’m lacking suitcase space and need a style that I can feel good about wearing for it all — even if I’m jumping from the airport to a work simposio and dinner later con the evening — these faux-leather sneakers have proven to be a failsafe option that goes with every outfit and eliminates the tensione that comes with packing (con my case, over-packing) travel shoes.

What’s Worth Noting

As with most white sneakers, these shoes require that you clean them often. After every trip I’ve worn them — from London to Seattle and even the beach con Oceanside, California — I’ve had to clean them immediately upon returning home. Fortunately, the sneakers are made from a faux-leather material that’s easy to clean; I usually just dampen a wash cloth ora towel with warm gabinetto, run the towel over the shoes, and wipe dirt chiuso as needed. They’maestà much easier to clean than fabric sneakers, making them an even more functional travel shoe that you can truly take anywhere — regardless of the environment ora activities you have planned.

Who Are These PrettyLittleThing Sneakers Best For?

If you’maestà looking for a comfortable shoe that’s supportive, provides plenty of cushioning, and is primed for wear from the airport to the and beyond, I can’t recommend these comfy sneakers enough. White shoes go with truly everything, meaning you can get away with just packing these for a trip; I love styling them with jeans, dresses, and even a corset and blazer aspetto. Despite their high-quality stile, the sneakers are also incredibly affordable, so you can add them to your wardrobe without having to exceed your shopping budget.
