Turns out I wore walking shoes most of the time too. The weather is so nice and there's so much to do that you end up walking quite a bit. Crocs are a good choice too I wasn’t sure what to bring to Hawaii either my first time and ended up bringing a small shoe store. Turns out I wore walking shoes most of the time too.

I had hiking boots in Colorado and I have since bought some here after I moved, but not for quick trips. But I do think comfy sneakers or walking shoes are a good idea. I wore mine on my most recent trip back to the mainland and was able to slip them off easily at the TSA line. Many thanks for the note of caution and for stopping by! I do not travel regularly so I welcome your perspective any time. ooh, I don’t think I would bring large leather boots to Hawaii.

However, don't forget to always tell your travelers that slip-on, comfortable shoes are BEST when making air travel a big part of their trip. And we all know flying to Hawaii will take at least one long flight, or several along the way. And there's nothing I hate more about being a frequent business & leisure traveler (30+ trips per year for me) than seeing vacation travelers screw-up the TSA lines with having to re-lace knee-high leather boots or struggle with bag upon bag of tchochke. I'm not bitter, but I think their experience (and the experience of those around them) might get off on the right foot -- no pun intended, of course -- if advice is given from curb to curb. IMHO, that is. :) Love your advice, and your first-hand experience added a very good authoritative POV.
