Wet Shoes

Ever have a completely soaked sneaker?

Aside from the fact they're wet, I love that squishy feeling.

How about a pair of shoes that feels like that ALL the time?

       Live in a bath half filled with cold water then.

       How do you keep them wet—I’m supposing that’s the invention? Do you have a catheter tube that splits and runs down to both shoes; or do you have great big water-filled balloons attached to them that soak them continuously; or maybe you pre-soak them in a solution of a deliquescent salt, so that they absorb moisture from the atmosphere? Something like that?

       whats so hard about drenching ordinary trainers?

       I should mention, not the wet feeling. Just squishy.

       So, not wet then, just squishy. Well, how do you do that?

       Drop frogs in your shoes.

       Whatever this gunk is that my keyboard wrist rest is made out of should do the trick.   

       Yes, I think the wristpad gel is in the right direction.   

       I know there are some type of inserts that have something like that already - but they're not supposed to feel completely squishy.

       there are trainers already that have gel in the soles...
