    Default Best shoes to wear? Crocs?

    Been brousing the archives as I've been planning my trip and many posters say to wear Crocs.
    I'm not a huge fan of sneakers and was looking for alternates. I was thinking Tiva's too. Suggestions appreciated!

    We are in WDW now and I have always been a huge fan of the Adidas flip flops to wear to the parks. I also do not wear sneakers. This year however I have been wearing crocs! I love them! So comfortable and easy to slip on and off. I would highly recommend Crocs.

    I have a pair of Crocs and a couple pairs of Teva's. I'll bring my Teva's and leave my Crocs at home. For me the Crocs just aren't that comfortable. I like my flip flop Teva's and that is what I'll mostly be wearing.

    I recently brought both my new balance tennis shoes and croc flip flops figuring I would alternate days. I ended wearing the tennis shoes once and my croc flip flops the rest of the trip! They were the best, however, I hate shoes of any kind and find the croc flip flops the next best thing to being barefoot!

    I have worn Crocs on my last 3 trips. No blisters, no wet soggy feet, and no foot pain whatsoever. As someone who has problems with my feet, I highly recommend Crocs. One thing I have noticed that works better for me with the Crocs is to buy one size smaller than I usually wear so that they fit better. Good Luck and have fun!

    For our recent June trip, I brought my teva's, crocs and sneakers. I ended up wearing the teva's and crocs and never touched the sneakers!! I have had issues on past trips with tired, sore feet, but my feet were comfy and happy for our entire 9 day trip!! Have a great trip.

    I'm strictly a flip-flop kinda gal. I prefer one with a thicker overall sole of about 1 - 1.5 inches - I don't do high heels.

    Yeah, I think I'll bring both my croc's and Teva's. I always get corns and hot feet from sneakers. So this should be good. I have to go buy a pair soon and start breaking them in. One month from today we leave!
    Thanks again friends!

    I got some incredibly comfy flip flops at Summer Lace in the Grand Flo. They are made by Douglas Paquette, and you can check them out on his website. The flats are $36, and the wedge are $42. They have a springy foam footbed, woven thong, and smooth ribbon between the toes. No rubbing or irritation at all.

    I got the wedge style (I hate flats). I bought a pair one morning before we hit the parks. Took the tags off, slipped them on my feet, and wore them for at least 12 hours. They were so comfy from the start! Loved them so much, I went back and bought another pair in another color. They are simple, but very pretty. I wouldn't wear them to dress up (some might), but they are very nice for casual wear.

    These two pair are definitely going with me to WDW in October, and I plan to buy another pair while I'm there.

    We are also a Crocs family.

    If you go to the crocs website,you will see they have a huge variety of styles now.
    Many styles don't even look like a Crocs shoe, but have the Croc comfort.
    They even have wedges and non flat styles for women.

    I have worn Crocs in the past, and were very comfortable. This past June I wore my Nike flip flops and they were incredibly comfortable.

    I always take sneakers, but honestly never wear them. I guess they are there just in case.

    For our next trip it will be the Nike's again and sneakers as back up.
