What's on your feet while playing DDR?

Nike frees aren't very good for ddr. They're too loose. The material they are made of is strechy. Unless you play on your toes they won't work well. After playing ddr in 10+ pairs of shoes I've found that 3 things matter. The shoes should be flat, stiff, and light. I really liked my asics mexico 66's. Now I have some generic skate shoes. They work alright. I need to get more of a feel for them. I kept tripping myself up on the screws the last time I played.

[richardo]

i will have my ddr shoes on

Black converses or my Old school adidas!

Usually my skin...

I wear skate shoes, loose ones, sometimes. Usually my converse ones.

I play in My NSS's. They are these like $20 skate shoes, but they are awesome.

I think the best type of shoe (at least for me) would be pumas. They are very light weight, so I would be able to move my feet the fastest. I dont really need support because I dont stomp the hell out of the pad when I play.

At home, I play barefoot. Easier. Less slippage.

At the arcade, I wear my keds. Unless I happen to be dragged into a game when I was already wearing boots.. then I have to play with socks.


Metal dance pad + socks = pain for my maidenly soft feet!

i always play in the arcades with my nike airs on. it rips my foot up if i play bare foot.
but then again, when i play on my PS2, i have a soft mat, so i just use socks!

I wear Adio skater shoes. But they've been beaten flat and there's no more padding in the bottom of the shoe (because they've primarily been used for DDR) and now my feet hurt whenever I have to stand for more then 3 hours in them

I need to buy a new pair, soon.

[LatexBlanky]

Globe skate shoes.

[Caffeine_Boy]

Cool....i tried my vans and they just don't work for me....

You know what'd be fun? Has anyone ever seen those garden cleats with 1.5 inch spikes on them? Play on them with a soft pad, and cause hundreds of dollars in damage.

Oh, but my Frees are great.

When I first played DDR in the arcade, I found that wearing shoes was painful. I took my shoes off and did it in my socks and found it less painful.

At home, I play in my socks.

[Mistress_Anayumi]

If I'm at home, then I play with socks on
If I'm at an arcade, I play with shoes on. Trust me, if you play in flip-flops at arcades, don't expect to do too well...I would know...

This question all depends on the mat i am on. on soft pads i like to play in socks and for metal mats at arcades i wear my shoes.

[azninsect]

i like wearing sports shoes on arcade/metal pads. i cant do it barefooted because of 1. the screws and 2. i land on the ball of my foot so yes, it hurts
i tried my leather shoes once, that didnt go so well -_- slippity slip slip

if i play on a soft mat, barefoot obviously, i get the strange feeling that if i wear shoes on a soft mat, itd be excessive and i might break it
