As summer travel hits its peak, millions are hitting theme parks, cruise ships, and bustling city streets, often leading to one universal complaint: tired, sore, and sweaty feet. But travel expert Samantha Brown has the ultimate solution, a genius hack that doesn't come from her globe-trotting career but from her early days waiting tables in New York City.
In a now-viral video, Brown revealed the simple, game-changing technique she has relied on for decades to keep her feet fresh during long days of exploration.
“Here is a great travel trip that I actually learned while being a New York City waitress,” Brown explains in the clip. “I was a waitress for 8 years and I know that it does not matter how comfortable your shoes are: when you’ve been on your feet for more than four hours, they’re tired, they’re sweaty, hot, uncomfortable. Not only do you need a break, they need a change of scenery.”

Her solution is a three-part system that fits easily into any backpack. “So I started to bring flip flops,” she continues. “Flip flops are great because they allow your feet to stretch out. They get a little breath of fresh air. I would bring powder. Sprinkle on the powder. Absorbs the moisture and the smell. And here’s the key. When I was ready to go back into my shoes I would have an extra pair of fresh socks. Sprinkle a little more powder. Put in my feet…I’m good to go.”
The routine of flip-flops, powder, and fresh socks has become a non-negotiable part of her travel life. “I have used this technique… all throughout my travels for the last 25 years,” she says. “Perfect if you’re doing the theme parks, cruise ships, even a hike... give your feet a break and a change of scenery.”
In the post's caption, Brown summarized her philosophy. “I don’t walk in flip flops, just rest in them,” she wrote, adding that “they take up very little space in a handbag or backpack and help your feet recuperate.”
Commenters confirming the hack’s effectiveness. One person shared a similar experience: “Hey Samantha, we do the same trick in sales! I remember learning this trick at Nordstrom department store when I was a young woman and I worked there for eight years so similar idea…”
An event planner co-signed the tip, writing, “Event planner here - we always change shoes halfway through a long day. Life saver!” Another traveler confirmed its value on vacation, noting, “This is such a great tip especially after touring all day and then getting back in the river cruise boat.”
One commenter with a background in foot health even provided a professional endorsement. “Yes! , I worked for a podiatrist and yes you need to change out your shoes and also wear good hiking shoes/sneakers as well as orthotic inserts . I always change out my socks and bring powder to absorb any sweat.”
