Catholic AnswerThat is entirely up to the individual bishop, unless he happens to be a Discalced Carmelite - Discalced Carmelites are not permitted by their constitutions to wear shoes. (Discalced means "unshod" = no shoes)

.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.
