Agreed, the folks that do are nasty. I can see a little shoe wearing here and there but keeping them on when you’re grounded to the furniture and not going anywhere is despicable. Gross

Depends on the kind of shoe - or where it’s worn. Nothing wrong with having indoor slippers or house-only footwear after all.

What OP really meant was "Only savages wear shoes.".
Flip Flops for life! |

Quoted: I switch to indoor only shoes when I get home instead of tromping around like some shoeless caveman. https://i.makeagif.com/media/8-18-2013/HFeBkA.gif View Quote The difference between Mr Rogers and the arfcommers who wear shoes in the house is that Mr Rogers can easily reach the laces on his shoes. |

I learned from Mr. Rogers. You change out of outdoor shoes to indoor shoes when you are inside. I prefer slippers.
Which reminds me, I need to order a new pair. |

For the shoe-wearers: why in the world do you want to wear shoes when you are staying inside?
The most comfortable footwear I've ever worn doesn't come close to the comfort of not wearing any. |

Sort of related, for those of us who don't wear shoes in the house:
What do you guys like for shoes that you need to wear outside, but only for a couple of minutes? Like...to go to the mailbox, or take out the trash, or check up on the smoker on the patio? That kind of thing. And don't say Crocs. I want civilized answers, for gentlemen. But yeah - something that slips on and off easily, looks nice, is well-made for the discerning man, and it well-suited to being worn outside in the yard for a for a bit - but not long enough that you'd lace up your boots. |

Carpet is what is disgusting. Hard floor surfaces and keep them clean. Small area rugs if you must, but yuck.

And I don't want to wash my feet every time I come back inside. |

It’s called earthing peeps, look it up. Barefoot master race checking in

People that think about other people's feet and what they are wearing on them have a foot fetish...
I guess I should add that there's nothing wrong with that, if it's someone's thing. |

I take off my shoes when I get home. I usually put on slippers or flip-flops while indoors.

Quoted: Best thing I ever did, was rip out all of my carpet and go hardwood and tile everywhere. Even the bedrooms and closets. None of us in the family wear shoes inside, but - and this is easier because I don't have carpet - I don't ask guests to take theirs off. If they accidentally track a little dirt in, it's easy enough to clean up later, after they've left. No worries. I don't really mind when somebody asks me to take mine off in their home, but for those of you who do this - be a bro, and provide a nice seating area or something right by the door, so that it's easy to take them on and off. This is especially important if I'm at your house all day, for a BBQ or something. Make it easy for me, if I'm going to be in and out your house and backyard all day. View Quote I agree with all this. |

View Quote We don't have pets or a dog mess outside in that regard. When you come over I can provide you with some sanitized flip-flops if necessary. My 7-year-old boy kicks his shoes off as soon as he enters someone's house. That doesn't mean I don't have to do the couch cushions every week in the laundry. Filthy ass bare feet lol. |

As somebody who works in the medical field and has seen thousands of patients feet, some of y’all are better off wearing your shoes in the house. Nasty motherfuckers!
That being said, I don’t wear my shoes in my house. |

Is it time for our quarterly thread on this again?
I'm OK with being a savage. I also have hardwood floors that get vacuumed and mopped regularly. I'm also willing to bet you shoe Nazis' floors aren't as clean as you think they are and you have other disgusting habits us normal people would find cringe-worthy... |
|
Fuck that, Legos are part of the floor in my house. Can't wait till the kids outgrow them.

Quoted: Indoor barefoot master race checking in! View Quote Indeed. Just think about every critter in the world shitting on the ground and you're walking in it, then tracking it into your house. If it is house only shoes, that is terribly uncomfortable and also promotes nasty foot fungus. Let those babies breathe! Also, you look geriatric like you need extra traction so you don't fall. I will, however, make an exception for winter indoor slippers, especially if you have hard floors, other than that keep those nasty things out of here. |

But my toenails are healthy, and I don't have weird shaped toes or anything. |

I don't wear shoes in the house for some of the same reasons I don't go barefoot in a gas station bathroom.
|

Somebody comes in my house and tries to take their shoes off I’d smack the fuck out of them..
Dont want your foot sweat on my floors. Besides i live on a farm, your feet are safer in your shoes. |

If you step in shit or mud, or otherwise tread on wet/messy stuff, take your shoes off, otherwise, you’re fine. If you like being barefoot, shuck ‘em. It’s not a binary choice. I’m a barefoot kind of dude, but taking your shoes off at the door as compulsive behavior is strange. Germaphobes/dirtaphobes are strange and irrational people. |

I usually wear sandals or topsiders in the house. Kids and dogs have taught me not to go barefoot.

i like this clever mockery of people who rant at the wearing of hats indoors.

Quoted: Filthy. View Quote Agreed. I don't walk around barefoot anywhere either. I wake up in the morning, socks go on. They stay on until I go to sleep. Except for the shower of course. |

When you grew up in a house with linoleum floors and space heaters for heat you wore shoes or house shoes or you effin froze. It's an old habit I won't break.

Our 200 year old floor boards have seen plenty of shoes. I do however try and kick off my boots and wear a pair of old deck shoes or slippers in the house as much as possible.
Now people with wall to wall carpet that stomp around in dirty boots.... |
