We recommend wearing clothes that are appropriate for the weather and are easy to walk in. While you won't be walking miles and miles, the production floor is concrete so comfortable shoes are ideal. The production area is in a warehouse so if it is hot out, it's a little hotter in there. If it is cold out, it's a little colder in there.
