No shoes is the best
3 comments

Interested to hear more on this. My feet absolutely kill me around the house in the evening if I go barefoot too much. How long does it take to really build up this foot strength and do you have any support for this?
Agreed. I take my shoes off as soon as I get to work, and walk around barefoot all day. No one has said anything to me yet..
is this just on carpet? doesn't stand for a long period of time without shoes hurt your heels?
i have a thin squishy mat but in the long run it is better for your feet in my opinion. Shoes often offer too much cushion and thus weaken our feet.

interesting, wasn't there a lawsuit for the vibram five-finger because there wasn't any actual benefit?

what shoes would you recommend?
