FAQ

Are waterproof shoes necessary in Mexico City in November?

Probably worth it — about 5 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 Mexico City in November?

Yes, for midday. Highs around 72°F are on the edge, so plan a backup for cooler mornings and evenings.

Can I get by with one pair of shoes in Mexico City in November?

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 Mexico City?

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 Mexico City?

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.
