What's on your feet while playing DDR?

Boooo Vans......unless you're poser. I go with my c1rca AP806 or my CX 205's. Depends mainly on which shoe i like to skate in more.

my boyfriend now makes me play in my shoes at the arcade..and on his flux pad too since i kinda fell off of it and killed my foot ><

My blue Puma Californias. They helped me win my first tournament. Ah Puma...

Unfortunately, my latest venture was with size 13, heavy basketball shoes. I was not exactly prepared for a rough day of 10+ games of DDR. Usually, I use my beat-up brown, leather shoes. They're loose and comfortable, yet go where I tell them. Much better than basketball shoes.

Oh dude and that fact that this is a DDR thread about what you are wearing doesnt really make vans poser shoes since he isnt skating.

I Love my Nike Frees They weigh practically nothing and have cushioning in all the right places

as for generic suggestions: usually Tennis tennis shoes (actually for tennis) and running shoes have worked best for me, as I usually play on my toes (CF and arcade) but they aren't bad for flatfooting either (have to for quick doublesteps like electro tuned heavy (just an example)

Oh, and DR. Schoals are a godsend!

When I play at home (which is 90% of the time) I play barefoot or in socks. When I play at the arcade, though, I wear my customized black Converse All-Stars (high tops). I painted them myself and I'm very proud.

Ankle socks at home, and my pimpin' Etnies when I hit the floor at the arcades!

i used to wear vans, but i picked up a pair of nike's and they kick buttocks.

Is it possible to play in platforms? I've always wanted to go totally retro for one day and school someone in platforms. It would make a really hot performance.

I'm shoeless, as I've playing at home on the foam pad. Don't want to tear it up. Cost be $100 (new brand). :o

Would rather play with shoes, as i think the pounding on the mat is molding my feet into positions I wouldn't like. IF I had my tough boots on, wouldn't have to worry about that I guess.

[lolinternet]

Nike shox or Birkenstocks. Depends on if I'm going out specifically just to DDR or just at the mall and happen to be by an arcade.

[noise_tank24 ▶◀]

hmm.. I used to play in vans, but the backs wear out, start to hurt, and make my heels bleed all over the dance pad . So, now, I either play in just my socks, or in an old pair of nikes...
