Catholic AnswerDiscalced Carmelite priests always wear sandals. "Discalced" means unshod or without shoes. Most religious orders specify shoes for their priest, although some may wear sandals (outside of the Carmelites). Diocesian priests are not required to wear one or the other, so it is a matter of personal choice, or up to their individual bishops.

∙ 10y agoThe only priests who are known to wear sandals, and have to, are Discalced Carmelites. The "Discalced" means that they do not wear shoes, it is not the most important thing about that particular reform of the Order, but it is noticeable, and the name has certainly stuck. Other Order priests wear sandals, but none of the others have sandals as a prescribed part of their habit.
