Hey all! :wave: While I know we don't find out which shoes we need for our role for SURE until we start training, I'm pretty confident from what I've read and researched that I'll need solid white sneakers for my recreation role (and possibly black sandals with a heel strap). I've started looking at solid white sneakers online on zappo's, especially since if it turns out I don't need them I can just return them with no problem.

Anyway, I'm currently deciding between two different pairs, but I'm a little concerned that they might not meet the "solid white" requirement. There aren't any contrasting logos, but one pair has a tiny bit of gray on the toe and it looks like outlined on the sides, and the other has small gray lines on the back of the heel. Would Disney have a problem with either of these pairs because of this?

Please let me know and thank you SO much in advance! :)
 
Those shoes would probably be fine, but it's really hard to say because it depends so much on the location's managers. Like I am a vacation planner at epcot and we are suppose to where solid black polishable laced or dress shoes. There is a girl who wears toms, but at magic kingdom, they would never allow that. I was told my converse were not allowed as a vacation planner at MK even though I wear them daily at epcot.

Seriously it's best to wait until you get here...you do have two weeks once you start to obtain the correct shoes.

Ah okay I thought maybe there was an overall standard, didn't know it was up to each individual manager, good to know. And sweet, we have 2 weeks? That's plenty of time! Thanks for answering my questions! :goodvibes
 
Yeah it depends on who your managers are. We wernt supposed to wear crocs but I had a pair that I wore for almost 9 months and they never said anything. I dont think they noticed eitherway! LOL. But definately wait till you get down there to get shoes. There is a shopping place right across from one of the complexes that takes like 6-10 minutes using the busses to get to.

Are you referring to the Orlando Premium Outlets? It really is super close to the Commons. And they have many shoe stores.

That's the fake outlet... there is a real outlet near the 535 walmart and there is a shoe store there. It's part of the Famous Footware store line, I do not remember what they are called down here.

Also, with a Disney id you get 10% off at Payless.
