I did a 5-mile hike along the French coast wearing the Veja Condor 3 — here’s why it’s my new favorite walking shoe

I recently holidayed in the South of France, indulging in five straight days of bread and cheese while exploring the beautiful postcard-perfect beaches of the Calanques National Park, accessible only by foot or boat. Eager to tackle the more adventurous cliffside trails along the Mediterranean coast, I needed a reliable pair of trainers and decided to take the Veja Condor 3 with me.

The Condor 3 is the latest update in the French brand's Condor series and just launched earlier this year. It secured a spot in our guide to the best running shoes, after impressing me during testing with its sustainable design and performance as a cushioned shoe for everyday running. Plus, it's a more stylish entry in the running shoe pool so I managed to wear a semi-chic airport outfit despite the fact I had a pair of runners on my feet.
