Sturdy shoes, worn on one's feet.


You have to little faith in your airplane you plan on walking back?


Or crunch through flaming wreckage. Your immediate post-crash chances of
survival are much better if your feet are protected, even for a short time.

I cringe, absolutely CRINGE, when I see people on airplanes wearing sandals.


Or light clothes in the winter.

As for foot wear I usually wear what I have on now. Steel toed leather
work boots that won't melt to your skin.
