when we had carpet, we took them off, now that we have planked floor, shoes stay on unless muddy. Easy to sweep out planked floor

During the day, unless it's raining, our shoes stay just outside the door on the mat when we come inside. At night we put them on the steps. If it's raining we put a towel on the steps and that is where the wet shoes park. I grew up in a house where shoes weren't worn inside, so it's SOP for us.

Just like our house, we wear our shoes inside. Obviously if they have some type of dirt or mud stuck to the shoes, we clean them first. Between the bruh type mat on the ground and the three carpeted mats going up the stairs to the landing, our shoes are pretty clean by the time we're inside the coach.

If there is inclement weather, I throw down a car wash towel on the steps and another near the driver's seat where we will remove our shoes and store them. Other wise, I don't take my shoes on and off until I'm in for the evening.

We have all tile floors with a built-in dust pan vacuum. My wife sweeps every couple of days and uses a Swiffer once a week. Our previous coach had carpet and we wore shoes with that coach. On the carpeted coach, I shampooed the rugs once a season.

Same here. We don't normally take our shoes off at home, no reason to take them off in the MH.

We live in Florida so when we do wear shoes, they are usually Croc's of some type of sandal that comes off before we enter the coach. If cold out and I'm wearing a slip on or tennis shoe, I leave it on inside.

We rarely take our shoes off. We have a mat below the entry steps. Another on on the first step and a throw rug at the top of the stairs. By the time we get to the tie floor the shoes are pretty clean. The only time we take our shoes off is when they are wet, and that's only because the tile floor is slippery with wet shoes. We keep a basket under the drivers seat for that.

Have never worn shoes in any of our homes static or mobile.

Have large box and shoe mat or right hand side of door upon entry that we place shoes in immediately. Wear slippers in cold weather inside. Real dirty shoes remain outside until cleaned.

My shoes stay on my feet unless they are dirty.
