I think you need a good balance between something sold and cushioning but also the flexibility... in case you need to run for a bus or train! :D Thanks, Paul @ TravMonkey.com Good tip Lani!

I took super light Helly Hansen amphibious sneakers that lacked these, but was fortunate to only have had a 30-35L pack for the majority of my trip so achy feet was minimal.
