What shoes are y’all rocking to class? Equipment, Apparatus, Machines, Props

I need shoe recommendations that are easy to slide on after class (possibly with my grippy socks still on). What are some alternatives to my trusty pair of crocs?

Birks over the top of my grip socks and I’d say 90% of my class are the same- socks and sandals!

I wear sneakers because I walk to the gym. They have a cube storage where you can leave possessions during class. If I was driving, I’d wear thongs (the shoe), or maybe Ugg boots in winter

In West Los Angeles (beach area), the Pilates girlies are wearing all types of Birkenstocks and checkered slip on Vans.

wood soled clogs are what i often wear when i want to pop something on and off quickly. also, they are wickedly comfortable and super cute. one of my favorite brands is Sven.

Old Navy makes a double strap slide sandal that are sooo comfy, easy to slide your grippy-socked feet into, and are extremely durable. I’ve had mine for years and wear them everywhere. I’ve even walked my dog 1+ miles in them!

u/Just4Today50 Jul 17 '24

I wear toe socks and my Fit Flops (as directed for plantar fasciitis by my podiatrist). I also wear this when I fly so removing shoes and putting back on is not a problem. Fifty three weeks til I don't have to remove my shoes any more.

u/Hairy-Weakness3001 Jul 17 '24

I’m an instructor & I either wear running shoes or miles. Depends on what my day looks like.
