Flip Flops at Disney?

I don't do flip flops in the parks, too much walking and they just aren't comfortable enough. I wear comfy tennis shoes for all day walking. We have taken cheapo flip flops to ride GRR and then when we know we aren't going to ride it again we pass them on to someone else in line or we just bring them home but I won't wear them around the parks all day. But my BFF and her DH do it, they say it's the best to wear flip flops around the parks all day so to each their own. :)
 
As everyone has said, flip flops are fine for strolling around the parks and going on the rides. However, if you are planning on doing the Cruizin' Calif. Segway Tour, make sure you wear closed toe shoes. That tour is an event where fliip flops are not allowed.
 
I always wear flip flops on my Disney trips! My favorites are the Teva brand Mush ones. They are the most comfortable (yet not ugly) flip flops I've ever owned!
 

I love my FitFlops for walking all day at Disneyland! We have taken three trips to DLR this year and for the first two I didn't trust that I could wear flip flops to walk all day so I wore my North Face hiking shoes. I had tired legs and blisters where my toes overlap. Then I got brave on our last trip and wore my Teva Mush in the morning one day. My feet didn't get blisters but my legs were tired. Then we went back to the hotel and I changed into my Fit Flops. It was heaven. I wore them all day for the other four days of our trip. My legs were not tired and my feet never got blisters. I LOVE my Fit Flops!!! I really want to get a pair of the Mickey ones on our next trip.

The thing about Fit Flops is that you definitely have to get used to wearing them before your trip. They have a construction that is supposed to exercise your legs (kinda like Sketchers Shape-Ups). For the first couple of weeks wearing them you will feel the workout on your legs. After that they actually help to relieve the tiredness of a full day on your feet.
 
I would consider if you can walk in them all day. Disney won't have a problem but will you as you walk and stand in line? I've known many people who like them and some that are surprised when they suddenly get blisters from them.


excuse me? my blisters are not from my flops.... :rotfl:
 
i tried to do 1 day with crocs and my shins were very sore by the end of the day and could barley walk - havent tried with flip flops yet if its warm enough in november i might try at least half a day
 
Another vote for Fitflops here :) on our latest trip to DL I started out alternating 1/2 a day w/Fitflops and the other 1/2 with comfy running shoes and soon realized that the Fitflops were a million times more comfortable so wore them all day each day without foot or leg pain.
 
Don't knock it til you try it. The ugly shoe club:
