In today's product spotlight, we're excited to showcase one of our most popular shoes: the stylish, amazingly comfortable  Munro Traveler. The slip-on Traveler's sleek design and cozy feel have made it an enduring favorite among Englin's customers. Many even purchase the Traveler in multiple colors so that they have a pair for every outfit! Read on to discover why so many women love the Munro Traveler.


WHO is Munro?

Munro is unique among shoemakers for a variety of reasons. For one, they have been family owned and operated for more than 40 years—almost as long as Englin's Fine Footwear! The company was founded in 1972 by Don Munro, who remained its leader for decades before passing the mantle to his five children. Today, three of Don's children manage the everyday operations of the company, while Don continues to play an active role in influencing Munro's direction and core values. All three of Munro's facilities are located in Arkansas, so while they source some materials and shoes from global partners, many of their shoes are made in the USA—including the Traveler!

If you're already a Munro fan, you may be familiar with their motto: "Proper Size, Perfect Fit." Munro's claim to fame is their vast offering of extended sizes and widths. They offer sizes 4-14 and widths AAAA-EE, amounting to an unparalleled 75 size/width combinations. Many women who have difficulty finding shoes to fit their foot's unique shape love the wide range of stylish choices offered by Munro.

WHAT makes the Munro Traveler so amazing?

From heel to toe, the Traveler is a masterpiece of expert craftsmanship and highest quality materials. Every inch is constructed with your comfort in mind:

Upper. The upper is fashioned from a combination of supple leather and stretch fabric and provides a personalized fit by conforming to your foot's distinctive, natural shape. This ability to expand and mold to your foot makes the Traveler a great choice for women with painful issues like hammertoes, bunions, and swelling from arthritis. The upper is also seamless, so it will never rub or irritate your skin.

Lining and insole. Inside, the knit lining breathes and wicks away moisture to combat offensive odors and help your feet stay cool and dry. The fabric-covered polyurethane footbed is contoured for maximum support to reduce aches and pains, alleviate fatigue, and keep your feet happy all day long. If you need a more customized insole, the footbed is removable to accommodate your orthotics, so you can enjoy the Traveler on your own terms.

Outsole. The Traveler boasts Munro's exclusive Tech Sole. This innovatively designed TPU outsole is remarkably lightweight and flexible, yet durable enough to withstand an active lifestyle. The tread provides exceptional traction to keep you on your feet in perilous conditions. Plus, the sole is shock-absorbent to protect your joints and legs, so even after a long day on your feet, you'll be ready to dance the night away. The Traveler's amazing array of features also includes a supportive steel shank and a barely-there ¾-inch wedge heel to give your style a little extra boost.



WHEN & WHERE can I wear the Traveler?

Few shoes live up to their name quite like the Traveler. If you travel frequently, you know how important it is to have versatile footwear that is easy to slip on and off and that provides all-day comfort, even if you're walking for hours on end. The Traveler offers all that and more. Wear the Traveler on your next vacation, and soon it will become as essential as your passport and suitcase. On the road, in the air, or on foot, nothing beats the Traveler for comfort and style. Not only that, but the Traveler has been carefully designed for season-to-season, climate-to-climate comfort, so you can wear it anywhere at almost any time and keep your feet at just the right temperature.

Of course, we don't just journey to exotic lands and far-off places—in our daily lives, most of our traveling consists of commuting to and from work, making trips to the grocery, having dinner with friends, or visiting family. The beauty of the Traveler is that it's perfect for virtually any occasion. Whether you're out and about in the big city or nipping over to the neighbor's house, the Traveler gets you where you need to go in style and comfort.

If you're headed to a more formal occasion, like a party, a church service, or even a wedding, the Traveler's subtle silhouette makes it an elegant complement to khakis, slacks, pantsuits, and even dresses.

Luckily—you guessed it—the Munro Traveler blends seamlessly with all these stylish looks.
