Anyone wearing boots to drive manual?

In my truck I've driven with everything & nothing. When wearing flip-flops my left foot tends to get caught in the mat so I just take them off.
In the Z I've driven in some cowboy boots with no problem, but not tried the steel-toed work boots yet. Drove in some flip-flops the other day; no problems with them getting caught on the WeatherTechs, but it definitely isn't the best footwear for driving a stick.

Docksiders in the winter, sandals in the summer. My work boots hang up on the pedals.

this should give you a more direct feel with the gas and clutch pedal:
