Frequently Asked Questions
Are shower shoes worth it?
Yes. If you’re using communal showers like those in a dorm or gym, shower shoes help you avoid coming in contact with some pretty unpleasant microbes. “Wearing shower shoes in a dorm situation is important to help the foot from coming into contact with fungus and the human papilloma virus, which is the virus that causes plantar warts,” explains Dr. Schottenstein.
Dr. Sanghvi also notes that shower shoes protect your feet from sharp objects, potential splinters, or foreign objects.
What should I look for in shower shoes?
Dr. Sanghvi says you’ll want to look for something made with a waterproof material that’s resistant to mold and mildew, such as EVA (ethylene vinyl acetate), PVC (polyvinyl chloride), and rubber. It’s also important to look for shoes that offer grip and traction to avoid slipping on tile floors.
