Can these be worn without booties / socks?

Yep, no need for the booties/socks. I took mine to Fiji for 2 weeks ans snorkeled everyday for at least 30 minutes and never had an issue with blisters/sores on my feet.

yes they can, I actually have never had to wear my booties with them and spend many hours in the ocean.

They probably are if you want them to fit snugly. But that doesn't mean they will fall past your foot. And you could always wrap a small towel or clothing around your ankle first.

Yes, they can be used without the cushion they are super comfortable with or without the cushion.

No. Each box contains two booties: one for the left foot and one for the right foot. The booties can be used one time only. Hope this helps.

Probably not. The material stretches some, but these were pretty snug over my bare feet. You could go a size up, but then you risk them being slouchy in the calf area.

Without the "booties" the current can hurt. So be sure to use them. Smiles, Aubie

I don't see why you couldn't, but I'd wear them over socks or pants if I was going to be running or jumping with them on, to minimize skin irritation

If you remain aware of your surroundings, then yes! On smooth surfaces without snow or ice your feet could become unstable. They are so easily removed & reinstalled it really shouldn't be necessary to keep them on, although I have worn them numerous times in grocery stores, etc. without difficulty.

I am sure they will make your feet sweat if you don't wear socks as they are not lined with anything. I have only had mine this winter and don't know how they will be in warmer weather. Although awkward to put on I am very pleased with mine so far and they are relatively comfortable to wear.

Yes, you can use it without the booties, but the electric stimulation is painful without them as they are a buffer for the intensity of the shocks. I have found you can wash the booties and reuse a few times though to get more wear out of them, and it is possible to reorder more booties from the company.

You mean without taking your boots off? Depends how large your boots are, but with the typical 6" or 8" boots, I would say you have to take your boots off.

It will be very difficult if your shoes are a perfect fit. If they are about 1 size bigger, then you might be able to wear them. I bought them to wear with my ski boots, which are about 1 size bigger and hoped that this would not interfere with the fit of the boot! I could not get my foot in the boot at all!! I ended up wearing them as toasty bed-room socks around the house with my PJ and sweats.

I did not wear mine yet, but according to Sloggers own website and QVC's website, you just hose them off with a hose when they get dirty. They are very comfortable, and they say you can wear them with or without socks, but I will use mine mainly for gardening.

I'm sure you can if you wish, but to be honest, my wife does not wear socks with them!!

I can wear them with Birkenstock sandals, if I punch a new outside hole in the strap that crosses the middle part of the foot. It's ugly, but functional. I read that someone could wear them with slippers, too.

I didn't use socks or booties, but then I have a large foot....a women's 9 -10 & used a L/XL flipper which was perfect.

I don't know if I would use socks under these booties. I'd be concerned about chafing and making the dog unwilling to wear them. I think I would try a medium with the sock to be sure you could make it really snug without being too tight, but the dog might be able to kick the booties off. Good luck!
