a lot of cons will have explicitly require footwear because of sanitation/safety concerns. you can take them off if you're just taking photos but you're expected to have 'em on if you're walking around.

if having the dogs out is an important part of your look you should just buy invisible sandals/shoes

for cons at waterparks like CCE it's different, but those exceptions are few and far between

Most cons do not allow you to walk around barefoot

This, if feet are such an important part of your cosplay then there are invisible sandals and shit like they said. Anyone trying to defend actually walking barefoot is a footfag gooner plus gross who knows what you may end up stepping in.

I saw a female Okarun cosplayer wearing footpads at a con. As in pads you stick to your feet. It covers some of the sole but not the whole foot. When I first saw it I thought she stepped in something, but it was her footpad.
Con staff seemed cool with it. But like everyone else is saying, Cons do not allow you to walk barefoot.

>inb4 i get accused of being a footfag

If someone wants to risk stepping on rusted metal, glass, food, ect just to be “canon” they should sign some kind of waiver that won’t hold the con responsible. If they are willing to risk it despite knowing when it comes to any other public outing they have shoes on, it’s on them.

Yeah this is the only way to do it. Walking around actually barefoot is too risky.
