I have seen many people where sandals during the cold season. Do you do this? Do you wear sandals on the outside. I usually wear sandals inside when it is very cold, And during the summertime, I will wear sandals as I am leaving. Do you think that it is very safe to wear sandals when it is very cold? I have seen many young people do this. It can be like 45 degrees and they will have on sandals. I know that everyones body temperature is not the same, but it is very wise to wear the appropriate type of foot wear to keep from getting really sick when it is very cold outside.. Indoors is okay, juat as long as there is heat.

If i have a cold season I always use sandals. I do it to make my foot more comfort. Usually i use a sandals made from cotton, It is very nice to use in cold season. Using sandals in cold season make our foot more warm. It is very good for our healthy.

I don't wear any sandles in the winter time. I pack them all up with my summer clothes. I have a pair of slip on tennis shoes that I'll wear outside if and when I need them. I do have a cute story to tell though. When my husband was in Korea for a year the first time, I stayed with my parents for that year and mom had a pair of shoes by the door that were worn out. They were a little big on me but still, we called them the "community shoes" because she and I would wear them to go outside for a quick moment. Can you believe those shoes fell apart on ME!! lol They were mom's shoes and yet they fell apart when I had them on. lol

I have low blood so you will never catch me with anything that shows bare skin when I'm outside when it's cold. Though it's not cold now where I am, when we have cold fronts I have to wear some shoes that covers up my whole feet. I can't stand to be cold. I'll just keep it safe and wear my sandals in the house.

hello cream
burr you won't catch me wearing sandles at all anytime when it is cold outside, even in the house. lol not. but yeah, i have seen many different people before wearing sandles when it is cold outside. sometimes people will even wear socks with their sandles like that when it is cold outside. but i guess that when it is cold weather like that, one should wear the proper footwear like warm shoes, like boots or tennis shoes or whatever kind of a style of shoe that a person likes to wear. but when it is cold outside, i like to wear my house-shoes inside to keep my feet warm, and i like to wear my high top tennis shoes when i go outside. keep those feet warm!
take care and have a beautiful day today! Happy Valentine's Day!

Hi cream dear! when I lived in London for almost a year, I have experienced very cold temperature and there never was a time that I wore sandals outside during those cold months. I always have socks and closed shoes on. I do wear sandals inside the house where there is a heater but other than that, you will never catch me wearing just sandals.
Take care and have a great day!

Not wearing any sandals at this time of year here. Right now it is 30 something degrees which is warmer than it has been. We won't be able to wear sandals here until at least April, unless we have some oddly warm weather. I wear fuzzy slippers inside the house, and usually wear tennis shoes or boots outside. I do have to wear high heals next weekend though since I am going to a wedding, but they will probably be closed toed shoes.

I'll wear sandals when its cold but only in the house, and then I'm wearing socks also. I get sick easy and if I walk around with no socks on my feet its easy for me to catch a cold. I've been seeing people now wearing flip flops already, I think its still too cool for me to wear them yet. In the summer I wear sandals all the time, shoes make my feet sweat and they get hot, so if I wear sandals it helps my feet to breathe.

Well, in the state where I am living now, it is not very cold in fact, we seldom have snow here. Our lowest temperature that I can remember is 10 degrees but that is not constant. We always have 28 and up.. there were times that we have 58 to upper 60 but I never used sandals outside because I feel very cold, I can't stand it. I come from a tropical country and I am not used to even 45 degrees temp.. that is still cold for me. yes, you are correct!! we should wear the appropriate footwear to avoid getting sick.

well funny you should ask this because i was talking to a friend on how i had to the day i went to court because i didnt have any flats that were dressy but my aunt had given me some that were sandle type but dressy.. of course this would be the 1 and only day this winter it would snow over an inch (but melt a few hours later lol) so i look ridiculous but i figured it was better than going into court in tennis shoes!

No, I don't like wearing open shoes, or sandals unless it is nice and warm outside. It gets really uncomfortable for my toes if it is cold outside and I don't have anything to protect my toes! Plus, the circulation to the toes is not as high as everywhere else in the body because fingers and toes are considered 'extremeties' of the body, therefore they get coldest first. Therefore if the weather is quite cold, people should try and keep their fingers and toes warm, not expose them to the cold weather!

I don't wear sandals outside in the snow or rain or cold weather. It is uncomfortable to have cold and/or wet feet. I do like to wear sandals in the house during the winter. During the summer, I wear sandals or go barefoot. I really do not like to wear shoes at all.

I used to wear flip flops all year round even when it was only 2 degrees outside but I was getting colds alot and I can't wear open toed shoes to work so I have started to wear tennis shoes most of the time. I usually wear slippers around the house to keep my feet warm as the floors seem to always be cold.

I'll wear sandals year round, if its above 50 degrees, I've got them on. I'll wear them in the house because I like something on my feet.
