After you make it through in record time at the airport, you’ll enjoy having these comfortable shoes for the rest of your trip.

Generally, wearing slide-on shoes is recommended for airplane travel. Whether you’re traveling for work or pleasure, no one wants to spend any extra time in the security line. You want to get in and get out, hopefully without your nail clippers or mini travel sunscreen triggering anything. Having a pair of shoes that are comfortable for standing and walking and easy to get off and back on is a great way to save yourself some time and save everyone the trouble of waiting extra time to get to their gates. 

Of course, the best shoes for the airport aren’t just comfortable and easy to wear, they’re also versatile enough to wear during your trip. In an effort to keep your bags light and your feet comfortable, we found some highly-rate slide-on shoes, all with reviews that mention how easy they were to wear through airport security and general travel. 

While these moccasin-style shoes technically have a shoelace-like closure, it's elastic and doesn't actually require tying. They're incredibly comfortable for long-time wear, have an odor-reducing insole and can go in the washing machine, making them perfect for traveling. They're easy to slide in and out of and will give any outfit a cool casual feel that's still a little elevated. These come in women's sizes 5–12 and seven colors.

Get them in women's from Amazon for $59.95.

Made with elastic laces, these On Cloud running shoes are designed in a slip-on style with a shock-absorbing sole. They're easy to slide on and off, but will give you support if you're running to a flight or exploring a new city. The zero-gravity foam sole distributes your weight evenly, making each step feel light and buoyant. These come in a bunch of colors in men's sizes 7–14 and women's sizes 5–11.

Get them from On.com in women's for $160 and in men's for $125+ (originally $160).

When we spoke to former transportation security officer Jasmain Washington, she said basic Crocs are a travel must. "Crocs are my favorite travel shoes because they are easy to slip on and off," she previously told us, "[and allow] me to move through security quicker."

They're waterproof and super easy to clean, making them a versatile vacation shoe, and they're made from a lightweight bendy material that can be squeezed into a bag without misshaping them longterm. These come in a bunch of colors in women's sizes 5–19 and men's sizes 2–17. 

Promising review: "Crocs Classics, are my favorite shoes to wear. They are super comfortable, like walking barefoot on a soft cushion. In cool weather I wear them with thick wool socks. Their ease of removal and comfort make them the perfect airport shoe, like wearing slippers. Crocs are designed to float loosely around your foot, so order a size larger than your normal shoe size. I keep my newest pair for travel and "going out", and use my older pairs for hiking, biking, yard work, and almost every activity. If you like taking your shoes off before you come in your home, you will love Crocs step-in/step-out ease (I rarely use the fold-back heal-strap). Think they look funny? I agree, I'm a funny looking guy with very happy feet!" —Alan R Covey

If you love your Allbirds tree runners, you'll want to snag a pair of these similar cruisers. They offer the breathability and comfort of Allbirds but can be easily slipped on and have a laceless design that makes them easier to dress up for the office or a dinner out. These come in six colors in women's sizes 5–11.

Promising review: "So comfortable, lightweight and stylish. Great for everyday walking and for travel. Easy to pack. Arch support adds extra comfort. I have multiple pairs of different styles and colors." —Elaine C.

Unlike flip-flops or clogs, which look like slides, Kizik’s offerings look like traditional laced tennis shoes but can be slipped on and off sans hands. These knit sneakers, are made from recycled materials and are breathable and stretchy, promising to keep your feet dry and comfy. The monochrome is so chic and makes them either a fun pop of color or a really low-key neutral addition to your outfit. These come in women's sizes 6 to 13 and men's sizes 4.5 to 15.

Effortlessly cool while still easy to wear, these slide-on Vans are a timeless staple for all ages and genders. You can wear them with jeans and shorts or dress them up with dresses or formalwear.

These shoes are effortlessly cool, with a solid sole to keep you feeling supported during long travel days. Reviews say they break-in wonderfully, but run a bit small, so if you're in between sizes you may want to go up. They're easy to kick on and off and are perfect for getting your feet ready for vacation. These come in three colors in men's sizes 7–14. 

Promising review: "So far I've used them from every thing to a quick trip to the store, to traveling through the airport and on a plane. 10/10 would recommend. So comfy!" —Zappos customer

Though the price may give you initial sticker shock, reviewers say these super supportive canvas slip-ons are with every penny.

With the ease of a slide-on shoe and Birkenstock's known stability and support, these Boston clogs are great for taking on and off and long hours standing or walking. The cork footbed is anatomically correct, with a raised toe bar to help with circulation. It's a versatile clog that you can dress up with slacks or wear with jeans or leggings on long travel days. These come in three colors in women's sizes 4–12.5 and men' sizes 6–13.5.  

Promising review: "These are extremely comfortably. They go with pants/shorts, socks or barefoot. Several times my foot has popped after stepping into them, so the shape is great for proper foot position. I actually use these a lot for traveling since they are easy to slip on/off at the airport screening and on the plane for long flights. Everyone should own a pair." —Zappos customer

When we interviewed nurses about their favorite shoes for hours-long shifts, registered nurse Jacquelyn Coles Bielich said Danskos, noting how the specific arch support kept her knees from buckling. However, reviewers also love these shoes for the airport, saying they're easy to kick on and off in security and go well with different types of outfits when traveling. The sole gives you three-quarters of an inch of height, without being too clunky or hard to walk in. These come in a bunch of colors in women's sizes 4.5–13 and men sizes (on Zappos) 4.5–10, with wide options. 

Promising review: "This is my 9th pair of Dansko clogs over the span of a decade and this one is my favorite. My daughter picked the style this time saying it reminded her of the Northern Lights (I mean how could I not, she's 6!) - not a day goes by that I do not get a compliment on them from both men and women. I wear them after my morning run and for the remainder of the day, everyday. I travel quite a bit and the ease of slipping them on and off at the airport is a bonus. They are expensive I know but if you break it down into cost per wear, it is far cheaper than buying the cheaper shoe that won't even make it to the one year mark. Well worth the money. Customer service from Zappos - as usual and never different - the best out there." —MLM
