My son says New Balance are about the only brand he can find to fit his wide feet.

First, bring your own brief case, so you don't balance literature. I
have a nylon one that weighs next to nothing and will hold hat,
shades, sunscreen, little tape measure, digital camera, etc. as well
as tear sheets and catalogs. Warm shirt, too, if the weather is iffy.

As for shoes, I favor comfort over convenience and wear the same five
eyelet, Vibram sole Timberlands that I race in -- Newport and
Annapolis are better than Miami and New Orleans in that there's less
concrete underfoot (Ft. Lauderdale is in between), but I'm always sore
at the end of the day, and the short boots help a lot. Sure, I have to
take them off when I go on a boat (sometimes I just leave them off and
go barefoot on the floats), but it beats being lame by 1600.

I need suggestions for the best boat show shoes. Regular deck shoes
look nautical and you can keep them on while inspecting many boats but
they leave a lot to be desired when you have to walk around in them for
10 or 12 hours. Loafers are not much better and you have to take them
off every time you board. Tennis shoes have to be unlaced every time
you board a boat that allows no shoes.

I am looking for a pair of white rubber soled shoes that have good
support and can still be slipped on and off without having to tie and
untie them while balancing half a ton of sales literature.
