    Best footwear for auto detailing?

    Hi everyone. I started a mobile detailing company this year and being on my feet all day and in wet conditions has been taking a toll on my shoes and in tern my feet. I'm curious as to what kinds of footwear people are wearing to stay comfortable and dry detailing. Thanks in advance for your feedback!

    Not saying I'd wear them in public but... Crocs. Wearing in public I actually like Sketchers shoes.

    I wear Sketchers sometimes to go on my multi-mile walks. They ought to be good for detailing.
    Treat it like it's the only one in the world.

    I’ve always wanted to try Fila Skeletoes for detailing.

    I usually wear the Merrell Moab 2 Gore - Tex. They are the most comfortable shoe I've ever worn, and water proof. I have arch issues, weigh about 260, and have no problem walking 9-10 miles a day in these, including washing the cars. I get maybe a year out of them before they start to let the water in.

    I wear Bogs Craftsman for detailing. Waterproof, insulated for warmth and comfortable enough to wear all day long.

    X2 on Crocs, me and a few other local detailers wear them and they're amazing.

    Crocs. Never in public but they are great for keeping your socks/feet dry.
