Favorite shoes for September?

[Lazyfaire]

We've never traveled to WDW in the late summer/early fall as we've been going in the winter the last few years. I'm reading up on weather & shoe suggestions, and it seems like maybe I should be looking into a pair that dries quickly in the event of rain or the aftermath of water rides. Is this a good idea? What are your favorite shoes for late September? Right now, I've got my eye on Crocs RideLite Mesh Slip-Ons or Ryka Hydro Sport Cross Trainers.... Thanks in advance!

I liked wearing my Tevas and Mephistos on my last trip.

I love these. I wore them and walked 6-8 miles a day at WDW and they were so comfy & lite weight. No blisters and if it rains they are quick to dry. https://www.kohls.com/product/prd-3602835/skechers-reggae-fest-neap-womens-sneakers.jsp?prdPV=109

Oh? That's promising! I wonder if the Skechers Reggae slides have the same comfort. I bought a pair at the beginning of the summer and liked them so much I wore them like it was my job. They have a thong and no back, which are my concerns I have with wearing them at WDW. I worry that they could start to rub.

Do you find that Tevas take some breaking in as not to rub?

Well I got them a year before my trip, but I don't remember them needing to be broken into.

What you want to look for are the Teva's with the neoprene backing. I walked 500 miles across Spain in brand new Teva Tirra's back in 2016 and those shoes were life savers, needed zero breaking in and I could trudge through a creek and keep walking the rest of the day with zero blistering. YMMV but Teva's are the only sandal I will buy now. I finally retired my 2016 Tirra's just last month and purchased a brand new pair in a very sleek black color, and I am falling in love with these shoes all over again.

Chaco’s are my favorite.

They sound like they're worth the investment!

I've read good things about these as well.

I am a sneakers person. I find them the most comfortable when walking/standing for long periods of time. usually when it starts to rain I duck into a store/attraction to kill time until the rain breaks. just be sure they are not new - and I wear heavy sox - even in the summer. funny tip - I bought the mickey mouse low sox on a trip and as it turns out they are my fav for the parks. absorb perspiration, comfortable, and never a blister. was worth the money for me.. good luck

Teva Hurricanes are my favorite park shoe! I hope it’s warm enough this December for me to wear them!!
