Moms, what to wear for shoes?

[nagshead]

I always wear flip flops but will it kill my feet at Disney?!

Do you wear them and walk/stand on your feet all day in the heat? It really depends on the person I think. For me- yes, my feet would be killing me. I wear tennis shoes or I have some expensive walking sandals that I am bringing too. Flip flops are saved for pool time only.

I always wear flip flops as well, weather permitting, and did the same on our trip last month. My feet were KILLING me! Other years I have worn sneakers and had a much better experience. Not a big fan of how sneakers look, but next time I'll deal with it, just to save my feet!

I see people in flip flops all the time at Disney. Personally I do my running shoes or my TOMS. (usually my TOMS)

I always wear comfy sneakers.

 

[Sugar Jones]

I will be bringing my runners, my Skechers Go Walks (sooo comfortable!). And my Clark's flip flops.

I generally bring several pairs of yellow box flip flops and try not to wear the same pair 2 days in a row. I also have Sanuk yoga mat flip flops that I will try this trip. I'll bring a pair of tennis shoes just in case, but they tend to hurt my feet more than my flips. I wear flip flops all the time, though, so that may be why I don't have a problem in DW. Last year I bought the Disney Croc flip flops and it was a huge mistake. Blisters everywhere.

I try to alternate between flip-flops (Reefs or Tevas) and sneakers.

I ALWAYS wear flip flops or sandals of some kind (with a small wedge) - for me runners are a form of torture (even very good quality, fit to my foot at a running store runners) after 15 minutes!

I did a 10 hour day on Saturday in our local theme park in my flip flops - no pain, discomfort or anything.

I think if you are comfortable and confident you can walk for miles (literally) then you wear whatever you want!

All I have to say is DON'T wear chacos! I thought i was being smart because they would allow my feet to dry after water rides and they wouldn't fall off on thrill rides. Not to mention everyone says they are "so comfortable". I ran across a pair on sale before my trip and decided to get them. MISTAKE! I had to buy new shoes! My feet have never hurt so bad!

 

[arubio0801]

I wear sneakers if its colder out but if the weather is nice I wear Fit Flops!! They are very comfy and don't make my feet hurt ever!

 

[mrssam]

I always rock my croc flops. They aren't all croc material, they have a brown leather strap and a really nice thick sole - they are actually cute.


I can't wear sneakers all day and being a SAHM I rarely wear shoes so fancy-flops are a must.

 

[Lilliputian]

I don't ever wear flip flops because I can't stand the thing between my toes, but I do wear Birkenstocks and Crocs most of the time to the parks. The Birks have to be very well broken in, but they're wonderful. For Crocs, I usually wear the kind that look like ballet flats or some that are just sandals shaped similar to regular Birks but with more of a heel.

 

[msmama]

I never wear the same shoes two days in a row. No matter the kind off shoe, if I wear the same pair twice in a row I end up in pain.

That said, I like flip flops, but I feel like my feet are really gross by the end of the day.

 

[wallskm]

I got Keens for my last trip and they were great! So much more comfortable than anything I tried the trip before (crocs, running shoes, and flip flops).

 

[kiramay]

I usually wear flip flops, but I wore sneakers last trip, and I'm so glad! My feet never hurt!

I picked up a bunch of sundresses for next year's trip, and I haven't figured out what I'll wear with them yet.

 

[ABtwinmommy]

Always flip flops (Teva Mush). My feet do not like shoes - rubbing, squeezing, sweating etc. Flip flops are the only way my feet don't hurt.

 

[chris31997]

My Croc flip flops

 

[thehappyhours]

I wore a pair of Keen flip flops last year (5 months pregnant) for the parks and our Disney cruise. Only one day did they hurt, but that was more foot swelling pain, than flip flop pain

 

[Mousemommy1]

Keens sandals! The best!
