Are there many of us in the UK still barefoot?

I'm still here. Still barefoot. It gets cold, but my hands and feet are always the last to feel it. I feel it much more in my upper arms and thighs.

 

Still barefoot here in Birmingham althought I have to admit to cheating a bit. To avoid stupid comments from people I am wearing pumps with the soles cut out. It looks like I'm wearing shoes but my soles are bare to the ground. I can get into places that would usually turn me away. They are not ideal I know, I prefer my feet completely naked, but it is a compromise.

 

I went barefoot a few days ago, and again today despite it being a chilly 8C. I did get more looks than usual.

I conceded defeat at the weekend and put my flip-flops on (it has to be sub zero for me to wear closed footwear) but it's been milder today so normal service has been resumed, at least for my doctor's appointment after work when aforementioned flip-flops were discarded again

And yes the stares do increase as we get deeper into winter and that's just when I'm in flip-flops never mind barefoot! No big deal though, that comes with the territory...

 

Same here. Still barefoot (apart from work). Now the weather is starting to change I am getting more comments than usual most commonly asking if my feet are cold! On the whole most comments are good and people say they wished they could go barefoot. I tell them it's quite easy - just take your shoes off and walk - simples!

 

Great advise! :sunny:
