Only Day #2 of 10, can't walk anymore. Are sneakers sold at Disney? Please advise.

Omg thank you sooooooooo much! I'm so happy I want to cry. I just called them, they do have women's sneakers and they open at 10:30! Even if more expensive than Walmart, having only to go to DTD instead of catching a cab & dragging our young kids to the outlet is worth it.

Thank you, thank you, I wish I could hug you!

I'm happy to help! I agree with others that you may want to look into anECV until your feet get a bit better. Also, if you don't have good socks with you you may want to think about getting moisture wicking socks at the running store because that should help prevent blisters.

It's probably too late now, but I'll second (5th?) the suggestion of the Mickey Crocs. I bought a pair on our last trip just for fun and they are THE MOST comfortable shoes I own. Even better than sneakers.

Also, if you start getting blisters head straight to first aid in any of the parks. They have neosporin, bandaids, etc. and are very adept at dealing with sore feet!

Don't ruin the rest of your trip, rent a Scooter.

That is SO INCREDIBLY kind of you, thank you so so much for your offer, bless you!

I just found out Fit2Run in DTD sells sneakers, so I'm going to be there at opening tomorrow! Thank you again for your kind offer!

Glad you found some!!!

Hate to hijack the thread---but what do these mickey crocks look like and where can they be bought? I like this idea! I'm a Disney nerd!

I googled them and found Mickey Athena flip flops by crocs. Look so cute. I will be finding a pair of these before our trip.

I always have foot pain at Disney. Last trip I wore two pair of thin socks with crocs and took 4 motrin in the am and 4 in the pm and had no foot pain.

I know i'm late but also consider if you can go somewhere to grab some epsom salts that you could soak your feet in every night. I know there is a bath store in DTD and the GF -- blanking on the name -- but perhaps they have something that will help. Rosemary is great as well for drawing out fluid and helping the swelling. Hope it is going better!

They are different than the flipflops. They are full-up shoes, with a croc sole and a canvas upper with a cute Mickey face on the top of the front of the shoe.

They are nearly impossible to find for sale online - they always seem to be sold out. They're available all of the parks, though.

OP, you must have gotten into my head. I had a dream last night that I was in Disney World and it started raining and my shoes got destroyed. The whole rest of the dream was me going from shop to shop trying to find shoes that fit me.

These shoes saved a Disneyland trip for me two years ago! I added two days in the parks to work-related travel.
the only casual shoes I brought were a newish pair of Easy Spirit walking shoes. After just an hour into my first day at California Adventure, my feet were sore, red, and blistering. I bought this exact pair of shoes one size larger than I normally wear along with a pair of Tinkerbelle socks. I changed into the new shoes and socks and continued my day. They were great! I wear them fairly often in good weather to casual events and get lots of compliments on them.

Hope you were able to get some relief, OP!
