Yes we all know that Toph prefers to be barefoot (like most of the Earthbenders) but the question is Could she if she had to (like say at the north pole?) We know it can be done??as Long Feng bends with shoes on. (we even saw one of them hit the ground after he was blasted off lake laogai's shore.) so Toph should be able to and with practice should be able to "see" with them (how much interference can an eith of an inch of wood or cloth make? ????

I suppose she could make shoes from bendable materials ahead of time.

she probably can, but not as good as without shoes. but that's just my opinion.

toph can't see with shoes. the only way she can see anything is through earthbending like she sed in the blind bandit

Maybe she can't see as well wearing shoes.

She would need shoes that would still allow her to pick up the vibrations which is possible.?? "Earth shoes"?

She could probable bend, but it would be like she was when she was in the desert. Not able to "see" well, thus helpless.

Is this asking if she can earthbend with shoes on or if she can see with shoes on? We've seen people earthbend in sandals, I think. Toph isn't always allowed to run around barefoot. At home her parents didn't know of her abilities and dressed her properly, so I would say she's used to wearing shoes, but loves being barefoot.

Being barefoot is bettere for sensing the vibrations.
That's the only reason Toph goes barefoot.
