FAQ
Are waterproof shoes necessary in Baltimore in October?
Probably worth it — about 8 rainy days on average. Water-resistant will do; full waterproof is overkill.

A light boot is worth it for evenings, when temps drop to about 47°F. A sturdy sneaker also works.
Can I wear sandals in Baltimore in October?
Not really — highs around 67°F are too cool for open shoes on most days.

Many travelers do fine with one strong walking pair. Add a second only if you need dress shoes or a wet-weather dedicated option.
What about dressy dinners in Baltimore?
Most cities accept clean sneakers or light boots for smart-casual dinners. If you have a black-tie night, pack one dress shoe and wear your walking pair on the plane.
Any tips for packing shoes for Baltimore?
Wear the bulkiest pair on the plane, stuff socks into the packed pair, and use a shoe bag so damp soles do not ruin clothes. Pack a thin spare pair of socks for rainy days.
