Wearing shoes while sleeping

Question:

Regarding what it says in Gemara in yoma about sleeping with shoes – is it a problem to doze off on the train, or while learning, while wearing shoes?

Answer:

The poskim say that this doesn’t apply to when one is sleeping “shinas aria” just dozing off or a short nap.
