What's your winter spa footwear?
« on: November 14, 2008, 12:26:06 pm »
Now that nights have been getting cooler, I've noticed that it is getting colder on my feet coming out of the hot tub and putting the cover on.

I was wondering what people are using , slippers? sandals? crocs? other?

I've tried slippers but they tend to get wet, I'm thinking maybe crocs...

Crocs for both of us, and if its real snowy and icy, we wear them right into the tub and then on the doormat just inside when we go back in the house.

If I have any ice on the ground near my spa, it means I spilled my soda, so I usually just go bare-footed.

However, when it turns cool in the winter I may go for house slippers.

I need new ones - I may have to look into these Crocs I keep hearing about...

Crocs are great because you can take them off after you get in. Then put them on before you get out so you do not have to step on the cold/icy/snowy ground.

Last night was the first soak with snow falling.  Wore the crocs, yes they come in size 12, right into the tub.  135 days till the Caribbean.

My crocs froze to the deck last night while the snow was falling >:(

Maybe I will have to try wearing them into the tub as wm does!

Do the chemicals in the hot tub erode the material of the crocs?
If so would it be better to buy knock-offs?

Cdn HockeyPuck, you mention that you have worn slippers between your house and the hot tub. I would  be very careful wearing slippers when there is even a hint of ice or snow. I wore slipper once and my butt still hurts. (no traction what so ever).

We now use Crocs. A lot more traction.
