There are many things in travelers cannot agree on (which carryon bag is best, which airline is the best – though we can agree that it is probably not a US airline – best seats on airplanes, etc), but one thing that I see travelers agree on a lot is that Allbirds has great shoes for travelers. I have been wearing a pair for the past few months and have a few hundred miles on them and they are awesome!
Big Sale on Allbirds – Up to 40% Off

Unfortunately, Allbirds does not offer a ton of sales. But, fortunately, they did launch their refurbished side of the store (that is where I got my current pair – great deal!) and now they also have an end of summer sale of up to 40% off!
You have to act fast as this is limited to certain colors and styles and many popular sizes are going quickly. But, if you want to try them out to see what all the hype is about, this is a chance to give them a shot (even though they do have a generous return policy as well). If you already know and love them, this is the chance to get some new pairs.
I will say this – originally, I tried out the big favorite – the Wool Runners. I wore them all over Manhattan and just did not get the feel right. But, I tried on the Tree Runners and these are fantastic! I wear them everyday and have put an easy 300+ miles on them in the last 4 months with walking. They are great!
So, you may think about grabbing a couple of different pairs from this sale and try them for yourself to see what works best for you.
what makes these shoes better than saucony? or sketcher?
I have only ever owned Saucony running shoes so cannot comment on their walking ones. Same with Sketcher.
For me, the comfort of these is better than what I have worn before, likely due to their all natural materials used. Plus, this makes it super easy for cleaning since they can be thrown right in the washing machine. Works great if you get them wet as well.
Like I said in the post, some of the models will certainly come down to preference. The Tree runners work perfectly for me while the wool ones were not as comfortable. I do have another pair to test out so I will see if my opinion has changed after so much time in the tree runners.
