You do not, I repeat DO NOT, need to stock up on tons of bottled water when you arrive in Iceland. A pair of flip-flops is always a great thing to travel with. You’ll also want them for walking around in your hotel room or around any other geothermal spas or hot springs you encounter. You’ll want them for the showers, the locker rooms, and that little stroll you’ll take around the pools to check the whole place out. Look, if I’m going to tell you to pack a down jacket and a bathing suit, I’m obviously going to tell you to pack warm hiking boots and flip-flops.įor visiting the Blue Lagoon you’ll want to bring a simple pair of flip-flops to wear around the facility. Should something happen to your Darn Tough socks, the company will send you a new pair, no questions asked, no receipt needed. They always feel like brand new socks when you put them on! Is that not the dream?Īnd, they are unconditionally guaranteed for life. Their socks are indeed tough! They never stretch out or bunch up in your toes. *she types with a super cringy face*ĭarn Tough is a fabulous brand out of Vermont that truly stands behind their products. You don’t want wet feet for your whole time in Iceland. ( These from Kamik are also seriously cute and don’t look like “rain boots.”) Just make sure whatever shoes you bring won’t absorb water and dry painfully slowly. Plus, they’re ready for any weather.Ĭheck out Sorel duck boots on Zappos and/or Amazon. You can wear them with just about anything you’ll take to Iceland with you and they are super comfortable. I personally love a cute Sorel duck boot and I wore mine just about every day in Iceland (when I wasn’t climbing a mountain, that is). Whether that’s a cute boot, comfortable sneaker, or otherwise, your best bet is still something made for the elements. Casual but still waterproof shoesįor everything else you’ll do in Iceland, I still recommend a waterproof shoe. My husband prefers a low rise boot, while I (clumsy biotch) prefer a high-rise boot to minimize the potential for injury.

Get yours here on Amazon or on (my fave shoe shopping site – free fast shipping and free returns, you can’t beat it!). These boots were perfect right out of the box-they didn’t require a breaking-in period or any kind of getting used to. I’ve hiked from A to V and I still swear by them.

I’ve hiked the Andes, the Alps, the Amalfi Coast, an actively erupting Icelandic volcano, and even Vermont’s Green Mountains in these bad boys. My husband and I both wear Oboz hiking boots and I can’t recommend them enough. Iceland is largely undeveloped so you’ll be on wet, uneven, dirty terrain a fair amount of the time. These should be solid, comfortable, waterproof, and with good tread. Here are the best shoes for Iceland in the summer: Good hiking bootsĪ pair of good hiking boots are a must-have for any Iceland summer packing list. If you have any outdoor adventures planned, which I certainly hope you do (!!!), waterproof outdoor shoes are an absolute must. Like I said already, the weather in Iceland is notoriously unpredictable and there’s a good chance you’ll see rain while you’re there. When visiting Iceland, it’s imperative that you have good, solid, waterproof shoes. The best shoes for Iceland in the summer (+ socks)
