Freedom of motion and traction are the most important things to consider when buying a pair of shoes for playing croquet. Any type of shoe is fine for recreational croquet as long as it fits you properly and it is comfortable. You should also take into consideration the type of surface you will be playing on as it may be wet, muddy, sandy or rocky. A lightweight pair of supportive shoes is ideal, such as a soft, flat soled shoe or a rubber soled, canvas shoe to keep your feet cool. Most clubs require you to wear flat soled shoes when playing on its lawns. Shoes come in many styles, colors materials and sizes.
