      I run a strap perpendicular to the seat pack to hold my shoes and it seems to work pretty well. It looks like you could run it under the two compression straps

      I don’t. One pair of shoes is more than plenty! I’ll place them on the ground if I’m not wearing them.

      Make sure to run any strap through the actual shoes (if they’re sandals/flip flops etc. Don’t just jam them in there, because they will get loose and you likely won’t notice them falling off. Anything must be properly secured, especially if it’s behind you.

      I’m impressed how light you packed for 5 days!
      You were in full autonomy (food and sleep)?

      About shoes: I strap them on my rear drybag, possibly in a plastic bag (if rain possible). As my drybag is much larger than your saddlebag, it’s much easier.

      I don’t. I am used to walk barefoot and have vaude clickies that are suitable for hiking. I can recommend that setup. Also it doesn’t wreck your aero.

      I run a voile or nrs tie down strap through the loops of my crocs, and around the bag, through the seat rails

      I use a mini carabiner hooked through the shoe and a daisy chain on my seat bag, one on each side. I only ever am taking sandals like Crocs or Merrill’s, so it’s easy, but I’m assuming you could go through a lace eyelet on a regular shoe.

      I have a rack and dry bag, with some small panniers- so not identical situation- but I use a Rockgeist Armadillo. I love it. It stops your bag getting too muddy, and the bungees are useful for putting my sandals under. I did worry about them falling out over rough ground, but it holds them pretty well, you can tighten fairly securely (I may think about clipping a carabiner to them if I ditch the panniers tho- cos they’ll feel mote exposed)
