Well, you could wear socks with Crocs (it isn't pretty, but it could work).

Try some really good walking shoes. I wore some last time in January, and my feet were great. Break them in before you go. I've had foot problems since May, and I kept reading about New Balance shoes helping with foot problems. I finally bought some a few weeks ago, and WOW what a difference. I walk 3+ miles a day, and my feet haven't hurt since I bought the New Balance (walking) shoes.

I used brownsnewbalance.com to find the shoes, but I bought them from zappos.com (I love the free shipping/free return shipping, esp. since the first size was too small).

Have a great trip!

Not sure if they still make them, but back when I was a city letter carrier I always wore Reebok DMX shoes and my feet loved me for it. This past week while at Disney I had Nike walking shoes (not sure the exact name but they're white/pink/grey with reflective strips and appearing at a store near you )and had no trouble.

Hands down -- tennis shoes. I love New Balance, everyone in my family wears them.

I wear socks with my Crocs every day to work and did it at Disney World last year, too. You can get no-show socks that barely show at all and they are sooooo comfy.

Try posting on the Disney Tips board. I've seen lots of threads about shoes over there.

I vote socks with Crocs, too. I am a nurse and wear them to work every night with scrubs. I wouldn't wear shorts, socks & Crocs, but with pants I think they look fine.

Another vote for New Balance. I have a wide foot and they fit me the best. I tried them out yesterday at a fair where we walked a lot and I put Dr Scholls gel inserts in them and my feet didn't hurt at all. I have arthritis on the tops of me feet and I had no problems so that's what I'm bringing to DW.

I wore my New Balance's duing the day when we came back to the room I wore my reef flip flops then when we went out again I wore my Croc's with socks. It helped me to mix up my shoes. I also used Body Glide on my feet. No blisters!!! I think I will bring my adidias for my down time. They seem to massage your feet.

Merrell Jungle Mocs. They repel water, too, as long as it doesn't go over the top.
