When it comes to holidays – whether that’s a city break or beachside escape, I tend to opt for comfort over style, and if that means donning a pair of trainers in favour of sandals, then so be it.

Why? It’s simple. I can rely on trainers to support me through day after day of walking without a sore toe or blister in sight, and I’ve simply never found the sandal I can rely on to do the same.

Until now.

On a recent doomscroll, I came across TikTok user Talia Mayden’s (@there_y0u_are) ‘investigative’ series on finding the perfect ‘ultimate city summer shoe’.

This shoe needed to be comfy enough to walk in on a summer day for over 25k steps and needed to show some skin (no trainers). Think: flats, Mary Janes, etc.

And after vigorous, in-depth reviewing, there was just one winner: the Camper Dana Sandals.

Available in a cross-front and standard design, these sleek sandals won the comfort crown, and had shoppers flocking to grab the ‘ultimate city summer shoe’ for themselves.

Talia said in her video: ‘No breaking in, straight out the box I ripped 10k, and I wouldn’t change a thing.’

While she later says that both styles are equally as comfortable, it’s the standard toe strap pair that she loves first as she raves of its impressive arch support and sturdy heel, finishing that they’re ‘so comfortable’.

The Camper Dana Sandals also feature an ultra-wearable heel that makes them as chic for daytime stomping as they are for evening plans.

Unsurprisingly, the sandals have been flying off the shelf since Talia revealed them as a must-have, but there are still a few colourways remaining if you, like me, can’t resist getting your hands on them.

But as with any viral item, you’ll have to be quick.

Not ready to just take one person’s word on it? The sandals have received hundreds of impressive reviews, too, from users who call them ‘incredibly comfortable’ and ‘so walkable’.

‘Amazingly comfortable,’ one reviewer raved, ‘you can wear them and walk in them all day!’

Another added: ‘Love. So comfortable and cute. I would buy in more colours if it was possible!’

A third wrote: ‘It is one of the best shoes I ever had! Great fit for a wide foot. Very elegant and mixable with lots of styles. Love it!”
