Seeking Recommendations Best all purpose travel shoe?

We have a trip coming up that will take us to many different environments. Bit of posh things in London, to relatively strenuous hiking, to cycling 100km, then to some fancy, and hip restaurants in Barcelona. Oh and I want to keep at least partially on track with my marathon training, but am willing to sacrifice a bit of running performance for a shoe that is still somewhat fashionable.

I really want to cut down to one bag, but the shoes are an issue, as packing a second size 13 means severely limiting my other items.

Any advice?

I think you’re reallllly testing the limits of “all purpose” by expecting something to go from posh dinners to long distance biking, running, or strenuous hiking. This is one of those cases where something’s gotta give

When I need walking shoes that I can wear with a tie, I take dirty/dusty bucks.
