The Rema (OC
553:2) writes that when Tisha B’av is on (or pushed onto) motzaei Shabbos,
one must wait until after saying barchu before changing into one’s
non-leather shoes. One should undo them before maariv, and then slip them
off, ideally without handling them (Mishna Berura 553:6). Only the chazzan
should change them before maariv. R' Shlomo Zalman Auerbach (Halichos
Shlomo, Tisha B'Av 15:n15) wrote that when one goes to a Shul that is davening after
nacht, they should change their shoes before maariv.
R’ Ephraim
Greenblatt (Rivevos Ephraim 1:380:2)
writes that one shouldn’t come to shul on Shabbos wearing non-leather
shoes because one isn’t allowed to display mourning on Shabbos. Likewise, one
can’t carry them on Shabbos, as that would be hachana, preparing for
after Shabbos. Thus, one should bring them to shul before Shabbos. (ibid
3:356; 3:606:7).
The berachos
on havdala are split up. One doesn’t say hagefen until Sunday
night when one can drink wine as it is no longer the nine days (See Mishna Berura
556:3). One doesn’t smell the besamim or say the pesukim
at the beginning. While most people say the beracha over the
candle in shul before eicha, R’ Shlomo Zalman Auerbach (Halichos
Shlomo, Tisha B'Av 15:n22) suggests that husbands wait until they get home and say it for
their wives, too. One who isn’t fasting should ensure that they say havdala
(with drinking wine / chamar medinah) before eating (Shemiras Shabbos Kehilchasa 62:46).
