Anyway, it was my first big barefoot walk. We went on a long walk the other day, wearing shoes, and about halfway through my feet were starting to rub and ache. Today, barefoot, through rough mixed path (gravel, dirt, tree roots, grit, sand, mud, water, bitumen and cement in spots) and my feet are slightly sore on the pads, but only in a "you've been walking a lot on gravel" kind of way. They handled the walk just fine (no "structural" aches). So, the barefooting is working, toughening the soles, and causing less/no foot ache. If it was more socially acceptable, I'd not wear shoes again (though the bindii in people's lawns/nature strips is always a problem). As it is, I hardly ever do (shoes almost never, thongs/flipflops for shopping, etc.).
