It varied with the order involved, there being no independent or secular nuns- all belong to some formal congregation or order- ( Franciscans, Dominicans, sisters of Charity- Mercy, etc.) the Carmelites, or at least a branch of them were called discalced- and they went about barefoot or possibly in biblical-style sandals. They were founded in Spain . I don" t think there were specific uniform codes for footwear in modern religious orders- except possibly white shoes for Nursing sisters. One step ahead- the Carmelites , at least some of them are discalced- without footwear.

What do nuns wear for shoes or do they wear any at all?
Nuns wear different things depending on the customs of their particular community.

Some nuns are dedicated to works of penance or have a special spirit of simplicity etc. It would be appropriate and virtuous for them to not wear shoes if that is their communities tradition.
