To solve this problem, we need to calculate 35% off the original price of the shoes, which is $82.88.

### Steps
1. **Calculate the discount amount**:
   \[
   \text{Discount} = 82.88 \times 0.35 = 29.008
   \]

2. **Subtract the discount from the original price**:
   \[
   \text{Sale Price} = 82.88 - 29.008 = 53.872
   \]

After rounding to the nearest cent, the sale price is **$53.87**.

### Answer
The correct choice is:
- **C. $53.87**
