Shoes to Wear While MDing

~Alan~ · Jun 18, 2008

I have a pair of lightweight walking boots I use when detecting, especially when the ground is hard and the spade takes a bit of pushing in.

I never go barefoot on the beach. It only takes a sharp stone or a piece of glass, and your holiday is ruined. :no:

Shoes with steel toecaps are to be avoided

Some boots also have steel strengtheners in the sole.

Definitely long pants and boots in the woods - ticks are nothing to ignore. In addition, poison ivy, mosquitos and yellow jacket nests. On the beach, it is different... tennis shoes will do well if you plan on getting wet. RickO

So MDing in the buff while in the woods is not recommended then?

Don't wear work boots with a steel toe in them.
I wear sneakers on most of my hunts but it depends also on where I will be hunting.
