What do your men wear on their feet on holiday?

[Cremolafoam]

A trainer , sandals( shudder) a mule?

Can't get my dh out of hiking boots. I have told him that he cannot wear hiking boots to a beach resort or he'll look like a dick.
Suggestions please........:0)

Sandals. Why are sandals (shudder)?

You can get sandals from hiking stores, that might make him feel better, e.g. Merrell

Because dh is a nerd( think Sheldon Cooper) and people would actually see his feet . He won't wear them. Personally I think they're ok.

trainers / flip flops

Trainers/flip flops/ toms

Sandals are the summer footwear of kings.

Deck shoes
Flip flops only if abroad!

BristolJim he won't wear a sandal. The lack of socks makes him go a bit weird.
It's an affliction he has I suppose. That and taking enough cabling to build a network for an entire village in his suitcase.

'water shoes' - for doing watersports. Sort of trainer-ish but would be way better than hiking boots for beachwear.

(He wears sandals if walking around and flipfloppy things poolside)

Socks on holiday? then really will have to be trainers. At least he doesn't do socks and sandals - that would be bad.

And I get a man in a jumper and hiking boots at the beach. How did we live in Australia for 2 years FGS ???

birkenstocks, flip flops or converse.
Please no hiking boots anywhere near a beach!
Why on earth doesn't he want people to see his feet? Unfathomable!

Ummm... does he actually want to go to a beach resort for his holiday? What does he do there if he won't shed solid footwear?

Water shoes might be a go-

Socks are ( apparently) like his comfort blanket- that and the arms covered at all times thing
< sigh>
Sometimes I pray for a rainy day do he doesn't embarrass the children.

He reads his kindle and eats patisserie .
We go to France to my folks house. It is clearly not his natural habitat.

Boat shoes, Timberlands usually. He does have some non-Jesus sandals for the beach and v.hot weather.

I loathe seeing men in flip flops.

My OH either wears a timberland trekking sandal or trainers with trainer socks.

He wears this combination during the summer with shorts at home and abroad.

What is the general opinion of an Espadrille?

For a man? With socks? Do you really need to ask?

You need to get him into watersports so he can wear wetsuit/rashie and windsurfing boots (like rubber socks, really)

I don't mind an espadrille, or even a mandal , but please not with socks! Not familiar with this socks as comfort blanket thing, sorry, it makes no sense to me!

No was only joking tbh- dh would say that they'd just fall off his feet( he has magical feet allegedly - that cannot retain shoes unless strapped upon industrially and cover his ankles.)
[ despair]

Am looking at converse and similar now.
Water shoes are a nono aparently and have been vetoed by dh in a horrified text.

What about something like this www.timberlandonline.co.uk/on/demandware.store/Sites-TBLGB-Site/default/Search-Show?cgid=men_footwear_sandals&pid=5154R&start=12&source=search&color=230

Crocs by the pool , timberland deck/boat shoes/converse. Tried to get him into birkies but he laughed in my face

Crocs no no no no no please! I can just about bear them on teeny tiny toddler toes but not on grown men!!

If they've got to fasten up to the ankes I guess a converse-type thing might be best bet. Unless you get him to go for Hadrian's Wall chic - gladiator sandals (if they exist in his size) with socks!

Mine wears blokey Birkenstocks. They look okay actually. That or flip flops.
