Are these sneakers acceptable for nursing school?

[369XYZ]

I just bought Nike sneakers for nursing school and I am not sure if they are acceptable or not ... Nike Women's Dart 9 Running

My worries are that they are not completely white, which I hope is still acceptable.

These are the requirements for shoes that my nursing department said:

Plain, all white leather shoes/sneakers

• No open toes or heels
  
• These can be nursing shoes or walking shoes manufactured by sports companies
  
• No clogs or open back shoes are allowed.
  
• No canvas or nylon shoes are permitted (essentially any shoe material that body fluids can soak through are not allowed).
  

Thanks in advance for answering my questions!

I have similar running shoes and when I walk on wet grass, my socks are wet due to the mesh fabric across the toes....which means bodily fluids would soak through, too.

Yeah, i do agree with you that body fluids or any liquids would soak through. However in my opinion i feel that it is very hard to find sneakers that body fluids won't soak into it.

Do you think i will get away with it? Also, it says nursing sneakers are acceptable, but not clogs. If you can show me some nursing shoes that are not clogs, that would be great!

I hope i can use these sneakers.

Thank you for your answer! Hope i can get more people's insight too!

I ended up getting Timberland Pro in white

They are super comfortable but a bit expensive

Are these shoes clogs?? If not, i am afraid they may be mistaken as clogs.

Did your nursing school accept clogs?? My school doesn't accept clogs.

I'd say no

It stated all white- they are not

Also no mesh- it has mesh panels

Keep looking, good luck

[Kimynurse]

I meant nylon panels

They are not clogs. And my program doesn't accept clogs either. These shoes definitely have a back.

You can try K-Swiss, which are leather sneakers. There are a few varieties; all of which are white.

Thanks! I will take a look at them if my nursing school does not accept these sneakers.

Thanks to everyone too for answering my question!
