waterproof shoes in Alaska in July

Won't need boots. They'd be too much. Sneakers or hiking shoes are plenty. I wore my Keens

We wore hiking shoes and just waterproofed them before we left. We had a lot of rain and they worked great!

I have goretex hiking shoes, and that was my main shoe for Alaska (and yes, I needed them because we did *actual* hiking, not just walking around ports ;-) But we didn't have much rain - but you never know, better safe than sorry when it comes to rain!!

We were in shorts in Ketchikan (in September!) which is truly odd - but I can't imagine having winter boots be my only footwear. Southeast Alaska really isn't that *cold* during the summer. Check the forecast before you leave, pack layers, waterproof jacket & shoes, and have a great time!

We've been on three Alaska cruises.

Any closed walking shoes will do the job.

I dont have waterproof shoes, but i have winter snow boots. Would this work or would it be too hot and out of place?

I wore tennis shoes, but I did spray them a few times with waterproofing spray. No problem with wet feet.

Just used trainers and sandals for our August Alaska cruise.

Bought second pair in Seattle prior to departure to have change of closed footwear if needed, (they weren't !!)

We had very little rain

On Princess helicopter tour to Mendelhall Glacier, over shoes were provided.

A good tread is almost more important than waterproof. Waterproof can make your feet sweat, water resistant should be fine for regular touring. Back onboard, change shoes. Making sure your touring shoes are as wide open as possible to dry out.

Could always get galoshes
