Barefoot catch 22 - People don't want to see ugly gross feet being exposed but shoes cause feet to be ugly...

Question

If not wearing shoes helps eliminate fungus and bacteria that needs warm dark moist places to survive and since shoes causes blisters, bunions and calisus's then how can a person go barefoot and not offend people who dont want to see gross feet. Does anyone think barefootin' should be tolerated so the gross feet could get healthy again. After all its not against any health dept. regulations, I checked.

Answer 1

Wear open sandals

Answer 2

To be honest, no guy will ever seem at your feet like that. it could the two be a favorable or a adverse provided that some guy has a peculiar and wonderful foot fetish or something like that. Plus do no longer problem, this is nearly a length 6 adult males and that's tiny. maximum adult males have around a 9-12 shoe length. Plus you're purely a learners in extreme college (assuming) and boys your age are nonetheless immature. i will say that thinking i'm now a learners in college and became purely 5' 4" learners year. I ensue to be 6' 3" now. If every person teases you approximately foot length this is truthfully ridiculous.

Answer 3

If the fungus is the main problem then open shoes should work. But as to your second part of your question, I think it's just silly that people don't care about seeing 99% of the foot exposed in a flipflop and start screaming 'gross' when the foot is totally bare. It's not dangerous and feet do not need support; support can even lead to problems. I've seen the results of a large survey in India; the men who pulled the old riksja's barefoot had very, very little foot problems even though they ran barefoot on paved roads that definitely weren't clean either. They had far less foot problems than us Westeners who put our feet in all these fashionable shoes with all our different supportive sports shoes for every different type of sport you could think of... Most Americans are brainwashed by the signs on store windows claiming it's unhealthy and/or dangerous enough to even be against the law (which isn't true btw, as the asker already noted), but in Europe most people think barefooting is healthy, even if they give in to fashion and rarely do it themselves.

Answer 4

Wear something like a Birkenstock sandal (that had straps across, but not between the toes) with a light cotton sock. It's better for you to wear something with an arch support and padding than to go barefoot - that will just cause futher probablems down the road.

Answer 5

I really don't pay attention to feet. Just wear sandals and tell anyone that gives a dirty look to shuck it.

I actually get calluses from going barefoot, not from wearing shoes.

Answer 6

Just wear flip-flops or open sandals. That fixes your problem. I wear them most of the time anyway seeing as I'm in Florida. I'm not offended by what people wear because it's their feet, not mine.

Answer 7

Personally I dont give a monkeys about seeing bare feet, its no big deal. If it was the norm, no one would take any notice of it!;

Answer 8

there are shoes made for people that have that problem.. shoes like sneakers that breath.
