[Daffy F]

Exactly and good to hear. Good luck with it.

Thanks my friend. Good luck with your endeavors too.

seeing as i got my wrist slapped recently for naughty comments i won't tell you what i thnk of the idea, but if you really want to toughen your feet up (you freak) put them in a bowl of surgical spirit for a short time.

...when the weather is hot, you can reach right out, and touch the sky...

OT: Depending on how the situation turns out, it could be tough getting around in establishments that require shirt&&shoes instead of shirt||shoes

You don't need to wait until the Summer and walk around barefoot to toughen up your feet.

All you need to do is wipe the soles of your feet with Surgical Spirit or Rubbing Alcohol in the morning and in the evening, and in about two or three weeks your feet will be harder than if you went barefoot for two or three months.

This method is a lot more hygienic (your feet will be antiseptically clean, cut resistant and shoed) , you can do it all year round and you also won't get refused entry into any establishments for having black feet and leaving footprints everywhere.

Sounds like a pointless affectation to me. Who the hell does something just for the nickname? If you enjoy having no shoes, then by all means, go without. Otherwise, I really don't see why you should bother. Plus, what do you do if it snows/rains during the summer period?

 

[TheRightToArmBears]

Sounds like a stupid waste of time that will probably get you in A&E getting stitches in your feet. So basically, it's a excellent idea and I would do it with you!

 

[Americow]

Amen man! I never wear shoes if I don't have too, makes me feel super awesome.

 

[sky14kemea]

I'd do the barefoot thing with you, but there's loads of smashed glass and stuff where I live -.-

It's bad luck that I live near 3 seperate pubs, yet I don't drink.

But good luck!

 

[Hollock]

Start now! I usually don't wear shoes in the summer either

Rain or shine, man. Rain or shine.

Hmmm. I'm getting mixed messages. I'm going to do it anyway, but I'm just interested to see who thinks what.
Fun people=Good comments.
Boring people=Bad comments.
Thanks fun people!

Also to those who said the thing about the surgical spirit, thanks for the idea (I may do this in winter) but I'm mainly going to do this for the experience.

I don't really care...I guess...
Good luck?

I think it's not 'Why' But more, 'Why not?' At the moment. Plus I like walking on grass with no shoes on.

I have developed a hate against people not wearing shoes since a couple of years ago. In my high-school there were a lot of hippies. Hippies wearing curtains and carpets as clothes, walking bearfoot in street, saying they lost their shoes on the way home of a goa-festival, etc... Anyways, it didn't surprise me that one day some dumb chick stepped in a piece of glass and had to have a toe removed.

Me and my mates had quite a few laughs when it happened again last year.

I don't have a problem with people walking bearfoot in the streets, but these hippies walked around in my school with no shoes. That's just disrespectful and also disgusting.

 

[cheese_wizington]

Hello again fellow escapists! I was thinking today about how often I don't wear shoes. I am a firm believer that walking barefoot toughens up your feet. Because of this I sometimes walk into town etc with no shoes on, and I have sort of earned a reputation around where I live as "That guy with no shoes". Basically I thought it would be fun to see if I could go the entire summer holidays without wearing any shoes. Do you have any thoughts? Do you think I could do it?

(I would obviously wear shoes for something important, like a funeral or something)

I think that's a kickass Idea, but you just got the Kinks-Sunny After Noon stuck in my head!

 

[Sir_Tor]

Broken glass on the streets = ouch. But whate hell go for it!

I still think it's "Why?". You could step on all sorts of nasty crap. I don't wear shoes in buildings. Shoes are there for a reason.

I understand, friend. But I'm not going to be walking in your school, okay? :]

Eh. I hear what you're saying, I'm just choosing to ignore it! ^ ^

Then why make a thread, fucking imbecile.

So I could hear what people thought? Now move along please... Also don't be rude. ¬_¬
