I do just fine on the 6MT in my Birkenstocks! but they are a pretty hefty 'flip-flop'

I've been looking into Piloti driving shoes though

I can drive normal bare foot, with flip flops, steel toe shoes, regular shoes. Feels weird at first but I just got use to it. I drive with flip flops a lot, especially after work I change out of my steel toe shoes and drive with flip flop home. It never got stuck at the pedal it have got stuck around the carpet but never at the pedal though.

I have never driven in flip flops nor sandels. Always take them off when I get in the car and set them back under my seat so they don't get in the way.

Flip flops regardless if you're driving or not are FTL!

Sandals are made to be removed. Barefoot driving FTW.

I prefer driving with shoes... But I drive with sandals fine.

I don't like driving barefoot, because I have to scoot the seat up a little further to compensate for the lost thickness of the shoe.

I got used to driving with flips flops, every now and then the heel will stick to the floor on my left foot needing to rearrange for the clutch. Other than that never many problems. Just takes some time to get used to.
