Mens Walking Sandals

Mens walking sandals are rugged, open sandals built with the grip, support and secure straps of a walking shoe — made for active summer days on trails, by the water and on holiday. Hi-Tec’s range covers sporty trail sandals, cushioned walking styles and adjustable hiking sandals. 

Warm weather is no reason to leave the trail behind, or to put up with sweaty boots. These keep your feet cool and planted whether you’re on a coast path or wading a river. 

What makes a sandal a walking sandal? 

Three things separate a walking sandal from a summer slide: a lugged cushioned outsole for grip, adjustable straps that lock the foot in place, and a supportive contoured footbed. A flip-flop has none, which is why feet ache after ten minutes. 

A walking sandal does everything a walking shoe does, just with the airflow you want when it’s hot. 

What to look for in men’s walking sandals 

Trail-grade lugged grip, secure adjustable straps, a quick-drying build for rivers and beaches, and cushioned footbeds for all-day support. 

Where do men’s walking sandals come into their own? 

Summer hill and coastal walks, travel, watersports, camping and festivals, gardening and everyday warm-weather wear. They pack flat and handle terrain that would destroy an ordinary sandal. 

Which men’s sandal should you choose? 

Hi-Tec men’s sandals span sports and walking styles with lugged grip and secure adjustable straps — all quick-drying and built for active summer wear on trails, around water and while travelling. 

FAQs 

Are walking sandals good for hiking? 

Yes — for warm-weather hiking on established trails, giving walking-shoe grip and support with better airflow. For rough or cold, wet conditions, a closed boot is better. 

How should they fit? 

Foot fully on the footbed with no overhang; straps secure without pinching. Size up if between sizes; Hi-Tec can run half a size small. 

Can you wear them in water? 

Yes — sports sandals dry quickly, great for river crossings, beaches and watersports. Rinse after saltwater or sand. 

Sandals or trainers in summer? 

For hot-weather walking, many prefer sandals for airflow. For rough ground or cooler days, a breathable walking shoe is the alternative.
