I wear a pair of Saucony running shoes. Fit me like a glove and i know they won't come off in freefall! plus when i started my training six months ago the grass was green and slick and i needed the grip so i didn't biff :)I swear you must have footprints on the back of your helmet - chicagoskydiver

I usually wear a pair of Nike sandals kinda like Tevas. If it's cold or muddy ect.. I have a pair of old Nike tennis shoes I wear. Just depends on the weather and where I'm jumping. New DZ I wear the tennies till I know the landing area then I switch over to the sandals. I love the feeling of the wind on my feet!!!

sometime I wear my Birkenstocks...

Duuude...I scared the hell out of myself one time with the Birks. I was practicing packing, and I walked over the lines, and dragged my foot a little, and a bunch of lines got caught immediately in the buckle on my Birks. A rigger saw it and he and I just looked at each other and he said, "Don't ever wear those to jump."
I wear New Balance running shoes, usually...I'm getting some Tevas this summer so I can look cool. :)Pet me! I'm harmless and cute!

I've been wearing my New Ballance running shoes...but I got excited yesterday and bought a pair of skateboarding shoes (something to wear around the DZ). I was going to get a pair of Airwalks (the name seemed appropriate), but I ended up getting a pair of Adidas skateboarding shoes(errr.....skydiving shoes)!!!

I wear a pair of red and grey Vans. The only pair of shoes I own. They came untied while I was on the step during my 5th jump. It was to late to do anything, so I figured what the hell, if I lose 'em, I lose 'em.
