I used to use Discipline shoes but now I much prefer Adidas Sambas.

I injured one foot years ago and the Sambas have a nice arch support and are great for pushing hands, IMO.

I much prefer Adidas Sambas.

 

This is what I use as well. Actually, I use the Samba 2. It has black stripes instead of white and its tongue is quite a bit shorter. Terrific shoe for all elements of T'ai-Chi.

I wish I would have seen this post before I got these:

 

a very light shoe, with an adhesive like soft sole, but hard shell. I doubt the toe will stay lifted like that in action. Brown being by lucky elemental color.

hemp or cotton shoes with hemp-rope sole (with or without a spine of natural rubber)

as far as i know there are a few types, the ones i know are espardilles and vanes (brandname) 'hemp surfshoes'
