I like to be able to do at least a little running while I'm on a long trip, but running shoes take up so much room! And they don't look great for other times, especially for going out in the evenings. I've thought about trying some all-black running shoes (possibly leather ones? I've never had leather running shoes) and wearing them in the evenings with black pants. Anyone else have suggestions / experiences? Has anyone tried running in flat (nicer looking) sneakers that aren't running shoes?

I love my ON super light white "everyday" style. If you like the look of bright white sneakers with skirts and pants? They have just enough support (for me, anyway) to jog along for awhile although I go at lower intensity and less distance than I normally do.
Anyway, as a concept ( they also do black and have loads of other options) to consider.

I wear a black runner with little or no logo. That covers both tour walking and slightly more formal cafes etc (No I am not fussy....)

Depends on the season. Sandals or ballet flats in warm weather, ankle boot in winter. Also, changing shoes can give your feet a break.
