While searching for a suitable backpack the past few months, I noticed that quite a few manufacturers advertise that their bags are big enough to carry various items including shoes. Do people really do that? I cannot imagine anybody putting dirty shoes especially those worn to public toilets inside their bag.
Got a tip for us?

Do people really put dirty shoes in their backpack?

I put shoes in backpack or suitcase types of bags but put them in a plastic grocery bag first. I appreciate the extra compartment though.
Salomon do some great sports rucksacks with a shoe/disgusting clothing section which by nature of a moveable compartment divider means you can get your minging stuff home to get into the wash. Love it. The are compartment is waterproof and can be washed out when home.
I don’t think anyone, in their right mind, would put dirty shoes in their bags. There are travel/shoe bag/pouch or plastic bag for these dirty shoes/clothes.
Same, well, the opposite, I carry a backpack ... but I don't wear shoes.
People could always tie them around their neck

From what I have observed, most people in the US (myself included) seem to wear shoes in the house.
No shoes allowed in the house.

You’d fit in in SF...just be careful where you step.
Slippers in the house. I have Mrs AFB meet me at the door with them when I get in from work.

I might have slightly exaggerated. We are currently without a table.
Yes, we follow several Asian protocols ... including a swift death from katana if you wear shoes in the house ...
Hmm, yes, I spent a not insignificant time in SF/SV
(In fact, prime me with a few beers, and I've got some tales of money, depravity, umm, activities that rival a good pulp novel
)hajime,
i also wouldnt think anybody would put shoes directly in a bag/backpack without first putting the shoes in a plastic bag. but then i just need to remember that some people do anything.
but, if it is the type of bag that has a dedicated shoe compartment then that's a totally different story.
plenty of golfers use the shoe section of their golf bag without an intervening bag cover.
people who go to gyms also, direct into the shoe compartment in their gym bag
