Combine the drawbacks of wearing shoes with the drawbacks of going barefoot.
I like going outside barefoot but this is just disgusting.
This looks gross, but im also so confused at the amount of people saying walking barefoot is dangerous and gross. Walking barefoot is not to bad in my city its pretty clean and there is lots of grass.
The store owner, standing in front of the “No Shirt, No Shoe, No Service” sign looking like:
(Btw, this is a great way to getting tetanus 🤭)
Tetanus is a disease made up by corporations to sell more anti-rust “solutions”! Hemoglobin is Oxygen bound to Iron, how could Oxygen bound to Iron hurt you???
True. I never work a mask in 2020 and I turned out just fine. Don’t even understand how tiny crown shaped object or whatever woke shit they make up could even hurt me. I survived just fine. A “crown” virus? LMFAO. I wear my crown 👑 like a king 🤴, wtf is a mini crown RNA bullshit, complete utter nonsense.
/s
Yeah! I identify with the OG Frenchfries, No Gods, No Kings! I’m happy to see a comrad happy to fight a “crown” wearing royal-ass virus, probably the fault of English imperialism or papist bullshit! !!
That’s kind of disgusting.
Not kind of! Lol
Based.
Based on my understanding of the state of the ground in cities, that is absolutely disgusting.
Back in my hippie days, we would do a little trick. You get some hemp. Few beads. Whatever. Tie it around your big toe then loop it around your ankle. So it looks like you are wearing flip flops at a glance.
Did it all the time.
As a more informed person. I do not really recommend walking barefoot anywhere except a park or your own space. And beaches.
Cause dogs literally pee on every surface that exists in a city.
And also hepatitis.
Glass. Other sharp things.
Even if you have thick soles, they can take out gashes of it.
And the sidewalk is hella hot in the summer.
Go barefoot at your own risk. But know the risks. Mkay.?
i tried to do it for a summer as a kid in a rural area and my feet got very gross indeed and I had a lot of painful experiences. but I feel that’s the only way to do it safely, to be a kid in a small safe rural place where there is like grass to walk on
The thing about this I don’t understand is why. Is it supposed to be to exist in as much of a natural state as possible?
I just like the way it feels. Though because of all the risks, I wouldn’t do it except at home or similar environments.
Not a barefoot person but I’ve heard it claimed that its better for your feet. Seems off to me but its not like we evolved shoes so what do I know?
It’s better for your feet in soft soil & grass. Our feet evolved to walk on soil, high milage walking on concrete will damage your feet.
If you wear mis-fitting shoes your feet will also get damaged.
Just paint your foot??
Damn I coulda saved money on getting my soles redone
Soles redone: $IDK, ask the local Faeries whilst the cobbler naps.
Barefoot: $Priceless!
“Hookwoorms, get in my feet please!”
Also all the tire dust that is releasing chemicals onto the skin.
That’s exactly what I was thinking. Humans suck at remembering history when they can’t see the consequences anymore.
There is an actual belief out there that your feet get some sort of power by connecting to mother nature barefoot. It’s insane woo nonsense, but that meme lifehack literally would be something they might do, lol
The linoleum floor of a supermarket is a godless abomination, further from mother nature than any other surface
‘linoleum’ is one of those words you read and immediately have to feel what its like to say. Like evel knievel
Nothing quite like a spiritual connection with concrete
Connecting to some basic ass tile work.
Daring to call linoleum “tile work” is like calling a Walmart a “home”
But those are tiles in the he picture.
Fair enough. Withdrawn!
Toph-core
reverse sandals
Sladnas
illegal???
Once upon a time I was a barefoot hippie. If you extrapolate flip-flops down to their Platonic ideal, you can arrive at something you can fold up into your back pocket.
I’m reminded of this one barefoot hippie who would do nature survival shows without shoes. I understand how it worked for him in the forest or desert with brambles and whatnot, but how does that work in an urban area?
Asphalt is hot but as long as you keep moving, and you’ve built up some callouses, it’s not that bad. I always kept to the grass on the side when I could.
Depends on where you live. In my city, sometimes shoes aren’t even enough.
Oh man, I don’t know how this could be true. I work manual labor, in sneakers. I spend all summer recreational time in either flip flops or barefoot. So while I don’t have huge callouses on my feet, I’ve got some. Not tender baby feet.
But still, one day it was like 70 or 80 out, I changed out fancy clothes into shorts, but forgot to pack my flip flops. I really wanted to walk down to an event that was going on, but I didn’t want to wear black fancy shoes with my shorts. So I went barefoot on the sidewalk, about 3/4 of a mile.
I did like you said and walked in the grass a lot, but man the concrete was hotter than I expected. It didn’t hurt at first, but each new step I took found freshly warmed concrete that just heated my foot more. Keeping moving definitely wasn’t helping. Eventually it started to hurt, even with walking in as much grass as I could.
I got to where I was going, grass covered area, and didn’t think too much of it.
When I went to leave? Oh man. My feet hurt. Looking at them closely, I had several blisters on both feet. I cooked em. I couldn’t walk back, I had to call my friend to pick me up.
That was on regular concrete. I cannot imagine doing that on asphalt, I wouldn’t make it a hundred feet.
Maybe I really do have tender baby feet 🤔
Painted lines are always cooler too.
I just don’t give a fuck. Adidas slides are basically my only good weather shoe. And most of the time I slide them into each other and stick them into my cargo short pocket. I have been doing this for like over 30 years and I hope to keep living life like this for the next 30 years.
I’ve seen this somewhere before and they are an influencer who really is all about being barefoot everywhere
The flexy guy?
He wears toe shoes
