Something different for sure! Wanted to try a pair for house shoes so I snapped up
A pair! Supposed to give a real natural
Feel so looking forward to the mail man today! Anyone here were barefoot shoes? I’m not wearing mine barefoot but with ultra thin bamboo socks!

Feels don’t fail me now! 🦶 🦶

Timing !! Just got em in time to edit! Almost as if no shoes on my feet yet so sleek to walk it! What took me so long to do this?? Love them!

    I wear soft soled deerskin moccasins around the house.

    I haven't, but have been thinking about getting a pair of Xero Prio, supposedly a running and fitness version recommended by Al Kavadlo.
    Mostly I just wear Birks around the house and lounging since the mid-90s.

    Barefoot...when I think of barefoot, I assume you mean barefoot. I walk around my house barefoot.




    Barefoot.


    When I’m not barefoot, I wear sandals. Really close to barefoot, but not barefoot. But close...

    Barefoot.

    I am from KY and we dislike shoes of any sorts. I live in Ohio now but when I go back to visit soon as you cross the state line into KY shoes are seen littering the side of the road. Yep, you take shoes off and throw them out the window.

  • I'm hip to KY and live in Ohio. Not from either but man I see the similarities no doubt! The longer I wear these things the more I'm liking them. It's like wearing no shoes but a little better support!

    Hey Johnny, I'm interested, but wondering how they fare against falling cast iron cookware and furniture corners.

    Up for some experiments?

    I'm a tender-foot. The ONLY time I'm barefoot is in the shower, and swimming.

    My daughters saw my pair and now everyone in my house wears them. I see that as a victory!

    If you want to know about the toe integrity of said “sandals”, I’ll firmly plant a swift kick to your oversized raisin and let you know how my toes feel. Deal? :D

    Only experiments will be are listening while wearing and I am picking up on better low end and true detail while stepping to the music ! A definite audiophile wannabe shoe here!

    There's one other place I can think of where foregoing footwear is appropriate, but if your Mrs. doesn't mind, go for it.😉
