A waterproof shoe bag solves a different problem than a mesh one: it contains mud, damp or polish transfer from a worn shoe rather than letting it air out, which suits shoes packed straight after a wet walk better than a breathable design — the trade being less airflow, so shoes are worth airing before sealing them in for a long flight.
