By Emily McCullough, Lucky Shoes

When you are packing your suitcase for summer vacation, be sure to leave room for shoes that you won’t want to leave home without. Whether strolling around the big city or hiking in the great outdoors, Lucky Shoes has all the latest in vacation footwear essentials.

“Not only do we carry stylish and comfortable summer shoes for women, but we also keep men in the fashion loop,” says John Luck, great-grandson of Lucky Shoes’ founder Joe Luck.

“Plus, we feature brands that make a positive footprint on our environment through sustainability.”

Perfect for trekking through the airport or a riding a bike along the shore, the men’s Olukai Alapa Li sneaker makes you weekend-ready.

For the ladies, the Olukai Koa flip-flop combines arch support technology and cushioned comfort along with bright colors and patterns inspired by the islands in Hawaii. Olukai stands behind its belief in sustainability and positive living.

Another brand that focuses on sustainability, Keen shoes can be worn hiking or in the water thanks to its water repellency and toe coverage. For men, the Newport H2 features the breathability of a sandal, but the protection of a shoe.

The Whisper for women contains elastic cording for a lightweight feel and a secure fit. Keen aims to create shoes that reduce our impact on the environment and protect the places where we live, while giving back to communities in need.

A vacation-savvy staple, the Chaco XZ2 is on-trend, with a unique 360-degree customizable fit. The arch support and durability make it comfortable to wear all day. Chaco is a proud supporter of Oceana, a company whose mission is to protect and restore the world’s oceans. So, while you’re on your beach adventure, remember that Chaco plays a part in keeping the world’s oceans clean and safe.
