go barefoot more

Currently I tend to walk around barefoot most of the time, only putting on shoes when going to work or when they are needed for safety.
The safety part probably won’t change, it’s mainly for ankle protection while paragliding (hard landings) and it’s part of the insurance rules, with good reason (similar to how wrist guards while skating are a good idea)
For the work part… I’m a consultant and at the moment I’m not yet up to the task of explaining my reasons to 1) my boss & 2) the customer I’m currently working with (which can change allot) & 3) the customers of the customers I’m working with (who often come past whatever table I’m working at). So for now, I’m considering shoes at work a necessary evil while I’m representing my company, similar to how the people in suits probably see their ties :p

Now my next goal would be to combine my jogging ‘thing to do’ with this one resulting in barefoot jogging, I’m guessing the jogging will hurt allot more than the barefoot running, even if it’s mostly on asphalt :D

As for reactions I got, most where neutral or good, surprised at seeing someone without shoes and/or asking about the reason behind it.
There where only a few negative ones though, and nothing too severe.

hit up the beach a few weeks ago. been playin a lot of ultimate lately without shoes which is the best. even when im’ in studio i’ll go barefoot, just cuz it feels better haha

it was beautiful down here in bristol ri the other day so me and the guys decided to jam outside. Barefoot playin music in the grass. this was when i realized i was a college kid haha. great mood and chillin with some of my best friends and it felt good to just kick it without the shoes for once.

it was a wicked nice day last sunday, so i ended up playin frisbee with the ultimate team for a few hours without shoes which was awesome…

I like going barefoot all summer!

It’s eight years now that I’ve decided to live my life barefoot! Having left Europe for good, I’m living in South India where I’m able to go barefoot on a 24/7/365 basis, and my soles got so tough over the years that even sharp gravel, tarmac and snow are no problem for me!

Walking barefeet over Mama Earth…

I still slip my shoes on too much …

i remember when i was a kid we lived barefoot all summer long….i miss that….going to get back to bare foot and all the relaxed laid back lifestyle that should go with it…
