Are there any restrictions in carrying shoes in cabin baggage?

Accepted answer

No. Plenty of backpackers and other travelers only travel with cabin lugggage and so this is done quite often. They will have to go through the X-ray anyway, so keep them in the luggage and wear shoes that you can easily take on and off to pass through security smoothly.

Sport equipment refers to different things, often items of unusual size and shape, plus items that one could think of being usable as weapon (spiky, pointy, etc). Shoes and jackets, even for sporting, do not fall into that category.

If space or weight is a concern with your luggage, then I suggest you wear the bulkiest boots you have during the flight and put smaller ones into your (cabin) luggage.

Unless you have blades hidden in your shoe soles, there won't be any problem with security. =)

Same goes for thick jackets, e.g. when you plan on going on an expedition. Just "wear" them during the flight

I would imagine it is OK, especially without cleats/spikes.

The only restriction that could apply is that they are too big and do not fit in the allowed hand luggage size.

Can you wear them and put your regular shoes in the luggage?
