driving barefoot sucks. the clutch is hard to use, the pedals feel funny, and you can't use your feet the same way as with shoes. i don't see a difference driving with different shoes. with boots it is way different, try driving a manual 94 mustang with big boots on, it's hard as hell just to squeeze down to the pedals.

I've drove in boots before, in my mom's 5spd truck, I held the clutch, brake, and gas all same time. Some shoes are differnet though but some arent. Depends on the type of shoe you get. I've drove barefoot before in my old car and it wasnt any different to me. :)

agh. i've tried to drive my car in sandals (not flip flops, they had straps) it sucked! my feet were slipping out of the sandals and slipping off the clutch at the same time looks like i am doomed to sneakers. oh well. not a problem.

yeah i know i just got a pair of DVS revival's and there great compared to my DVS cartridge sometimes when i would brake and shift to neutral i would step on both the throttle and brake at the same time (Cartridge).. but i cant wear payless shoes they smell like plastic when you take them off i wore some for a prsentation at school once and my mom was out of town and i was down to my last 22 dollars.. ande driving bare foot sucks when i barely bought my car i tried this hard clucth and bare feet were the worst i did this becuase i ran in a puddle by accident to avoid this insane wheel chair person, they should have them take tests before they get one of those rascal things!-edgar
