BS footwear???

Almost afraid to ask....what do the members wear on their delicate little feet while suited up ?

Is there an approved footwear ( black trainers, black boots....? ) I have to fit the part assuming I may be on a musto banana boat at the end of April with AJ & Whisper ...

Arabian slippers or clown shoes are apparently the next big thing

they are available with an inbuilt neoprene sock if you've only got ankle seals.
