This is why you don't wear sandals or flip-flops on a scooter or motorcycle. Tennis shoes are not recommended either.  |

I tend to ride a lot in my L.L Bean house slippers, but that should make me want to wear my boots everytime I ride, but I doubt I will. Dumb me!

I always say: it's better to save money for protective clothing than to save skin and flesh.

I'm all for protective shoes when riding, but if this picture is of a motorcycle/scooter incident, I don't see how he lost the top and bottom of his foot at the same time?  |

My Converse are sufficient. Right? No not really. You really should invest in some boots. Heavy Duty work boots is ok. Tennys are better than flip flops but not much. Having a thick sole and sturdy ankle support can mean the difference between putting a boot down in a emergency or evasive manoeuvre to rolling or breaking foot/ankle and crashing causing more injury. I'm guilty of wearing my Adidas a couple of times and remember regretting it and not being able to walk for a week. |

I'll probably still wear just sneakers to be honest. |

Always.

Shorts flip flops and no helmet here. Mostly around the neighborhood. Shoes and a helmet if I'm going out on big roads or the big bike.

I rarely see other scooters around here but when I do it's usually the shorts, flipflops, and no helmet. I just wouldn't feel safe not wearing a helmet for anything other than riding it around the yard or just down the road. |
