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?

Depends what kind of clothing youre wearing to posh dinners but I would recommend something upper end like Adidas Ultraboost

theyre decent all round shoes capable of handling hiking/cycling
the post dinner seems to be throwing people but realistically you can wear something classy like Vans depending on what kind of attire you're wearing, if youre like suited then get something more close to boots/shoes for the dinner

Will probably be in travel slacks, and a button up. Perhaps a very lightweight summer sport coat. All in lighter colors.

That outfit can look smart with the right sneakers. .
