Togrutas in the Star Wars universe don’t always follow their own lore, but if you would like yours to get closer to their homeworld roots you’ll need to find a pair of shoes that lets them be close to the earth. A lore-appropriate Togruta would not habitually wear shoes, and there are only a few pairs of footwear in SWTOR that will allow you to go barefoot.
A statue of Shaak Ti, a famous Togruta.
Togrutas were known for their habit of not wearing shoes; they believed that the land was spiritually connected to them, and wearing shoes cut themselves from a bond with the land.
In SWTOR, to gain the statistical bonuses of wearing armor, you must have a pair of “boots” on. There is no way to hide your boots, so you must get creative with your footwear if you want your Togruta to be lore-appropriate.
Many Togrutas in canon media (including the two most famous Togrutas) do wear footwear, so it’s up to you which version you would like to follow!
Covert Feet Energy Armor – cartel pack item, check GTN. This is the only footwear in the game that is truly “invisible”. It will likely be pretty expensive.
Slave Girl Slippers – requires Social II, bought on Nar Shaddaa. The cheapest and sparkliest option! Can only be worn by female characters. There is a similar pair available if you have access to the Security Key vendor.
Xoxaan’s Footwraps – cartel pack item, check GTN. This is usually pretty expensive due to the cool chest piece that’s part of the same set.
Gav Daragon’s Boots – cartel pack item, check GTN. This is also usually pretty expensive due to the cool chest piece that’s part of the same set.
Jori Daragon’s Footwraps cartel pack item, check GTN. I couldn’t even find these for sale on my server’s GTN.
Tattered Ritualist’s Boots – costs two Recovered Relics, gained from completing the Tython/Korriban flashpoints for the first time, or sometimes dropped during the flashpoint. Recovered Relics can also be bought from the GTN.
Tattered Mystic’s Boots – costs two Recovered Relics, gained from completing the Tython/Korriban flashpoints for the first time, or sometimes dropped during the flashpoint. Recovered Relics can also be bought from the GTN.
Battlemaster Force Mystic’s Boots – requires valor level 60 gained from playing warzones to wear. Check the GTN, this is craftable by players who have the now-retired schematic.
Battlemaster Stalker’s Boots – requires valor level 60 gained from playing warzones to wear. Check the GTN, this is craftable by players who have the now-retired schematic.
