Not that I mind, but⌠wearing shoes has a purpose⌠and the most important one IMO is to make sure our feet stay harms way from broken bottles, nails, stuff like that.
Iâm not even gonna get into how cold it must be not wearing them in the winter⌠or how hot the asfalt might get during the summer. The asfalt can go up to 80, 90°C where I live during the summer, people have fried eggs on it for kicks.
Iâd also recommend something like my âSplayâ shoes if youâre going to try it. Theyâre barefoot shoes that also have a wide toebox so that your shoes fit your toes instead of your toes fitting your shoes!
Before I switched to the wide toebox I also used boating shoes if you find some of those cheaper.
Things like converse are of course more mainstream, but at least have the âzero dropâ aspect, so youâre closer to the ground but donât quite feel the ground.
Everyone will say barefoot is bad for your knees, but thatâs really only true if youâre running or jogging on concrete without letting your body adjust.
My feet used to ACHE at the end of the day, now they can still hurt sure, but it feels much more like a tired muscle instead of incorrect exercise if that makes sense.
