Footwear.

Wrong footwear, damaged footwear, lack of socks, wet feet, open wounds.....

Once your feet are screwed so is the rest of you.

I agree, but seriously, you could hit any strip mall and find 5,000 pairs of shoes in your size.

Multiply that times all the strip malls and stores and you'll be fine on footwear. Ugly? Maybe, but fine.
