Water rides universal... Keep sneakers dry

[NPRI]

Hi all... Heading to universal this Sunday for a week.... Was just wondering how people keep their belongings/ and sneakers shoes dry after riding the water rides(Dudley ripshaw and Popeyes and Blutos?
Are there lockers to store shoes in. As well??

Wear something besides sneakers. No way to keep them dry unless you take them off and they do not allow that even though on the barge ride there is a place to put them but you have to take them off right after you leave the boarding area.

Wear boat shoes or sandals

If you are doing all the water rides in one day, use a locker to store your regular park shoes and socks

I'd agree with everyone else. I normally do all the water rides at once and wear shoes that can get wet. I'll then change back into other shoes later.

I just bought Sperry's water shoes a couple months ago. I'm about to take them to Hawaii but I bought them also for WDW/USO next year. They are designed to let the water in and out quickly and dry fast (they were $24.99 plus tax at a Sperry outlet store). They look like normal tennis shoes (but with the bungie tightening instead of actual laces). I'm planning on switching out the insoles for ones that are in my Ryka's since I love those insoles (re-zorb ones). That way I get comfort from a good insole with arch support and quick drying from water shoes. The insoles are made from a material that should dry fast too.
