Yes well if I were you, I would take a spare pair of shoes for him just incase cause you want to be able to see him in front of you at all times and not have to have a 'shoe malfunction'...And some gaff tape and maybe some cable ties too...🤣
Hahahaaa funny thing is, I was thinking the same thing a few days ago, but then for me. I also have some old sneakers that almost fall apart and I knew they wouldn't survive the hike, so I took my newer shoes with me. So I thought "what if I took the old ones with me, I had to have a spare?" 😅
Well then that could mean that you will have 2 pairs that you won't be able to wear but are carrying the weight...
Yeah no point carrying extra Joels...ooops I mean weight...🤣
Hahahaha, @rarej had to carry a bottle of Cola mixed with water from a friend, who offered to help carry the bag because of the extra weight. That extra bottle came in handy when we needed some extra energy 😂.
