Why these shoes for Juneau in March

Juneau in March averages highs around 41°F, lows near 29°F, 17 rainy days.

Waterproofing is the deciding factor — expect wet sidewalks and occasional downpours, so anything porous is going to soak through by lunch.

Our picks focus on waterproof boots, traction sneakers, packable rain shoes — enough range to cover day-to-day walking without overpacking.

Are waterproof shoes necessary in Juneau in March?

Yes — with roughly 17 rainy days in the month, waterproof or water-resistant shoes are a strong bet.

Do I need boots in Juneau in March?

Can I wear sandals in Juneau in March?

Not really — highs around 41°F are too cool for open shoes on most days.

Can I get by with one pair of shoes in Juneau in March?

Two pairs is safer — wet cold months punish a single pair. Pack a weather-ready primary and a dry backup.

What about dressy dinners in Juneau?

Most cities accept clean sneakers or light boots for smart-casual dinners. If you have a black-tie night, pack one dress shoe and wear your walking pair on the plane.

Wear the bulkiest pair on the plane, stuff socks into the packed pair, and use a shoe bag so damp soles do not ruin clothes. Pack a thin spare pair of socks for rainy days.
