I need shoes... ahhhh

[Smudginator]

Okay, I'm going to WDW May5th I need shoes.
I don't know what kind of shoes to get. I don't do sandals though.
Does anyone have any suggestions? I'm 28 so I want cool (but supportive) shoes that I can wear for walking hours on end. (My dad is like the Bootcamp Commander of vacations. It will be him, my brother (17) and me.)
And I so need help finding decent shoes. Please and thanks.

You might try Merrills they have some pretty decent shoes..
Good Luck and have a magical trip!

Crocs!!! They come in a bunch of nice colors, can get wet, dirty, etc... and still be fine! The little strap can either go around your heel, or flip up to make the shoes like a clog!! The ones with the holes in them keep your feet nice and cool too!!

I wear mine all the time and I walk everywhere - my feet never hurt in them! And people compliment me on them all the time! They're just funky enough to be cool!

I always buy a WHITE pair of Reebok Princess sneakers. I find that they have absolutely no break in time to worry about and they are comfy and cushiony and they look nice. They go with slacks, shorts and capris....anything!!!

You can get them at most stores for $29.99! Then throw in your flipflops for any pool time you may have while in WDW!!!

I'm taking my Nike's plus my Keen Newports. I learned about the Keens here. They are sort of a sneaker with ventilation. I like the fact that no one can stomp on my toe because the toes are covered.

I ordered them on Zappos.com. Free shipping. Plus I believe they have free shipping for returns should your new shoes not fit.

I wear either 7.5 or 8 and I ordered and 8. I'm glad because they fit just perfect. I wouldn't want them any smaller.

Thanks for the suggestions. I like a good support shoe and those are some good ideas.

You might look at tevas (Tevas.com). They have some that are sandals but there is a style (Dozer) that look more like ventilated sneakers. I bought a pair and they are light weight and comfortable but you have to chose what you think best suits you.

Well I did end up getting Reeboks. I got the classic nylon; they were the most comfortable. The Princess ones were too narrow at the toe. I have duck feet. I am so panicky tho. I leave at 3 am Saturday (we're driving) for WDW. AHH all I can think is... Do I have everything? Am I missing something? and on and on and on.. I'm a panicky packer.
