It used to be slippers for me, but after shredding a pair I switched to
Converse All-Stars.

LOL! I chuckle everytime I read this question (and it comes up a lot) but it
is a lot more harmless than a lot of the mud-slinging that goes on around
here so I always give in and answer the poll:

Socks.

Or 'In my socking feet' as me mum would say. :-)

Racing barefoot has one other benefit.  If you lose a spring, you can curl
your toe around the pedal and pull it back :)

I am a bit ***footed getting on the "gas" out of corners.
I find wearing slippers helps me get my foot down.

To add to that I also feel I am more precise with slippers.  Driving in
socks the pedal seems to shift position under my foot which means the
depression of the pedal is not constant for a given angle of the foot.
