FAQ
Are waterproof shoes necessary in Santa Fe in March?
Probably worth it — about 5 rainy days on average. Water-resistant will do; full waterproof is overkill.

Not really — highs around 55°F are too cool for open shoes on most days.
Can I get by with one pair of shoes in Santa Fe in March?
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 Santa Fe?
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 Santa Fe?
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.
