OMG shoes!

[sweetorangeblossom]

I was hoping someone could give me some examples of comfortable and Playa ready-to-wear fashionable shoes...Me, I plan on bedazzling my reeboks and wearing the occasional sandal depending on the costume, but, just out of curiosity, what do YOU wear?

Mostly I wear my boots, but sometimes I wear sandals, and sometimes nothing at all. I have yet to have any trouble with playa foot, but I don't walk around with my feet exposed much and when I do, I clean them before putting on socks and my boots.

i wore uggs or converse at nite because it gets cold. During the day around camp i usually was barefoot or wore some old birkenstocks. Never had a problem with playa foot, but then again I've got some pretty tough ass feet. I also live in N. Nevada so am used to the dry climate and go barefoot a lot at home.

Another footware thread...

Picked up a fab pair of fake Uggs for $12 at Wal-Mart just before hitting the Playa. Wore those most of the time. If I was just hanging around camp, I'd wear a pair of socks with my Crocs normal-looking sandals. No Playa foot here.

Keep your feet clean and moisturized and you shouldn't have any problems.

I have an old pair of New Balance that are reserved for the playa, regardless of what I may or not be wearing. I'm not trying to make a fashion statement. I know I'll fail.

Moon boots.. what else? I mean, since we're going to this straaaange place in the middle of nowhere with foreign soil and blinky lights and lions and tigers and bears and hippies oh my!

It's not rocket science, it's not the moon, it's not that hard. It's a party in the middle of no where with a bunch of people. Wear whatever you would normally, just know that they might get a little dusty dirty.

Me, I wear Rainbow flip flops 24/7 in the real world. Guess what I wore out there? Yup.

These are shoes made by Carolina. not a steel toe. model ACA423. I work on concrete all day, and these are the most comfortable shoes I've had. Dorky, whatever. Too heavy perhaps to be a hiking shoe, but sturdy and comfortable for lots of strolling around. Sierra trading post has women's sizes on sale. at about 30 bucks less than shoeline has 'em for. you usually can get a 20% off coupon code online from a coupon site.
I've got an old old pair I bring to the playa, ready to ruin. I wash them off, put some polish on them, and keep wearing them. I think it is a discontinued shoe, so I got a new pair to keep in the closet for future use.
