If I am in flip flops I always take them off in the boxster.

with my 9.5 eeee feet, there is just enough room for shoes with my boxy, in my Miata it is a different story. during the day it is flip flops for the most part and they don't interfere with the Porsche pedals. I guess there are more tall Europeans than Asians, but I may be wrong on that generalization (probably not).

I wear flips flops almost year round too and yes I go bare foot less I risk making myself look like I can't drive a stick properly. With flip flop on it's just a mess.

I sometimes will drive barefoot. However, spending some time in FL has made me more than comfortable with driving in flops. Things get a little tricky when you are trying to drive with combat boots.


One time as a younger man I was a ski instructor and drove a van in ski boots... now that was great.

Barefoot is the way to go - especially in a warm climate.

Not to +1 Jake, as he is still growing, but my size 15's always feel better without shoes on while driving the Box!
