What Barefoot Shoes Do To Your Feet...5 Years Later 

I walked 50,000 steps in barefoot shoes - you can watch the journey here 😊 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-PDYegkUc0n8.html

There are barefoot shoes that look like normal shoes but still dont restrict your toes. If anyone was wondering.

What you’ll also notice is that ur 100% more susceptible of being bullied when wearing those shoes

If someone bullies you for wearing barefoot shoes, just pick up kickboxing. You'll have a natural advantage from having stronger feet and the better balance that comes with it! 👍🏾

As a kid I would walk around barefoot like all the time, and as I grew up I was really picky with shoes because tight toe boxes felt wrong, so I'd only wear this specific line of Asics.

I ain’t wearing any shoes that show my toes, the feet finder mfs gonna be on me. 😭

Girl really has enough courage to show her feet online

There are actually cute barefoot shoes out there - Xero and Raum (also considered grounding shoes) are two brands with nice options. I love feeling the ground under my feet if I have to wear shoes!

Been wearing vibram toe shoes (five fingers) for 14 summers, been all around the world with me. My old boss wore hers to work, I didn't actually notice and was in on my day off wearing mine and she pointed them out, she's the only friend of mine who also wears them any time she can. They are soooo comfortable and help alleviate the stress I feel in my knees and hips, healthy feet really add to our quality of life!!

I have sensory issues. If I don't have shoes or socks on and my feet get dirty I feel my system restart 💀

That's crazy. Makes sense now how that one person was able to play guitar with their feet.

I love walking barefoot and didn’t know this existed! I know what’s finna be in my closet 😂

** laughs in ballerina**

"Your old shoes no longer fit" That's what's been happening to me for the past 13 years

My toes already aren't squished. I don't wear barefoot shoes, but I refuse to wear pointy toed shoes, for this reason. Wide toe boxes are important to me.

As an Aussie I can shamelessly say I basically don’t wear shoes anywhere, like it’s normal for me to see other people walk around the shops without shoes and doing it yourself doesn’t hurt anyone

So true. Can’t wear any of my old shoes anymore, not really mad tho. I feel like a super human in barefoot shoes

After trying barefoot shoes for a few months, in effort to find the root cause of my back problems, I noticed my entire body started having problems. From my Ankle, knee, hip. I went back to cushion shoes & immediately noticed a relief in what felt like my body falling apart. What I’m getting out of this, is that we need to train those muscles slowly & not transition abruptly. Of course this is from my experience! Feel free to share any knowledge! 😊

my flip flop wearing ass: "damn that's crazy..."

That one 80 year old man’s about to get his free feet picks up the day

The 69 years old man getting his free foot pics in this video ❤

this is a nightmare for my flat feet. i had barefoot shoes for two years and had intense pain in my feet, knees, ankles, and hips. even after putting arch summoner inserts and heel cushion inserts in those shoes i still had severe pain. i switched over to asics and hoka shoes and my feet feel tons better

“PUT THOSE GRIPPERS AWAY!” -Amy Rose

I have went through 6 pairs of barefoot shoes and they are the best things ever made.

I’ve been wearing those since 5th grade . My feet are awesome

That’s sick, I think I’m going to wear them to college tomorrow. Sure hope I’m not subject to any form of bullying from my peers.

If someone wears this shoes to my funeral, they're coming with me to hell

Don't wear shoes that scrunch your toes together also stop wearing shoes that are too small for your feet(ladies you know who you are), don't die for fashion, function first, fashion second!

Me who walks barefoot 99% of thr time : 😂

Bro, you don't have you wear those shoes to not strangle your feet, just wear reasonable shoes that fit you. Ever since I was a kid my feet were splayed and I pick stuff up with my feet to this day so often my mom calls me monkey paw. Just wear good shoes.

Barefoot shoes just means they give the toes more space and have less cushion. They don't have to have separated toe spaces and can look fine

😂 for real. I can no longer wear converse without pain.

I have always worn shoes but my toes r like that

I don’t give a single shit if my feet get destroyed I’m not wearing those damn toe shoes

I just go barefoot at home and you don't need a special shoe most of the time. Could grab things with my feet always.

“wearing normal shoes can cram your feet, compress them” me who wears pointe shoes

I could climb trees and pitch a baseball with my footsies.

As a person with high arches these shoes are my nightmare 💀

“put them grippers up,” -*a wise man*

The only reason i wear shoes is so i dont step on things that hurt like grass or bees

Yep. I now know why I hated so many shoes growing up. Could never explain to my parents the narrow feeling at the toe box

unfortunately, not everyone’s body is capable of supporting them while barefoot :/ i have flat feet and hyper flexibility as a result of osteogenesis imperfecta so after years of breaking my legs and feet I had to eventually get custom orthotic insoles to allow me to walk without crying in pain. I wear orthotic slippers around my house and use a shower chair for the shower (i hate the feeling of flip flops even if they have the arch support). i am grateful that my orthotics gave me the ability to walk for more than just a few minutes, up until i was 17 i used a wheelchair almost everytime i left my house. take care of your feet folks!! remember that pain is your body telling you that something is wrong so if your feet always hurt then something is up!

As someone who wears "normal" shoes I can 100% pick up a ball with my toes your fancy shoes didn't do that for you

My feet have grown a size and a half since switching to barefoot shoes!

Barefoot shoe wearers when they haven’t told anyone they wear barefoot shoes for more than 5 minutes: 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯

SHE GOT THE DOGS OUT 💀💀💀

I feel connected to my inner monkey when I pick crap off the floor with my feet.

I'm going to walk fully barefoot from now on!

I'm able to pick up things with my feet, but the difference is that I do wear shoes, just not inside my house. I don't really like to wear shoes when I'm at home, I prefer taking them off and walking barefoot. There's no need to be completely barefoot all the time, you can be barefoot at home and still get some of the regular benefits

Thats the whole point of shoes, i dont think i wanna be feeling jagged glass on my feet while im walking in the hood 🗿

Okay did anyone else think of Toph when she said barefoot shoes?! I can’t be the only one 🥲

if you are facing problems with toe's being cramped and sticking to eachother or not in natural form use toe spacers (your feet will get used to having space since they would grow using the spacer giving it space)

Well, that explains A LOT. I’ve been wearing barefoot shoes for a pretty long time now and can’t wear any different shoes anymore without being in pain.

I live in a cold country and wearing barefoot shoes has help my toes separate so nicely. I keep my toes in jars in the garage now.

My toes already are in a natural position bc my shoes don’t constrict them 🤨 I don’t know what kinda shoes y’all wearing

I started wearing crocs And my life changed because they are made in the actual shape of your foot it’s amazing

I wear shoes so I can't feel the ground and to squish my toes 💀

Caught you in 4K my brother 📸📸📸

Note to all skaters out there: I know someone who tried these shoes for a few months, and they couldn't get back into skating for ages they had to tighten fabric around their toes whilst just at home to get back into even just being able to Ollie

The guy who is allergic to the sun and always walks barefoot at home and goes out every millennia:🗿

Everyone gangsta until you step on dog poop

just buy a pair of converses and wear them for two years, it's the exact same feeling.

In biomedical engineering we learned that these shoes increase the strain in your feet and ankles making you more prone to stress fractures. Don’t buy everything you see online

Idk how to tell you this but the solution is just wide shoes. I know, sounds crazy, but they exist and you can buy them and they're basically the same outcome with no bullying. Source; I used to get ingrown toenails from thinner shoes/shoes that come to a point and this fixed my whole world.

The simplest barefoot shoe is a flip flop. I wear those in the summer and fuzzy crocs in the winter. Boots for work. I've noticed a few of my shoes don't fit that well anymore. I either feel too much pressure on the ball of my foot, or pain in my pinky toe.

I grew up barefoot and use my feet to pick up everything lmao

Imagine seeing someone im Walmart walking around in shoes that have toe pockets

Another fact is also that the shoes make you look goofier than mickey mouse's shoes

Normal people: *Thanks For the Tip" NSFW Photographer: *Takes about 500 pics* eDiT: MoM I'M Fa-- NO SHUT UP

Living in India, I'd lose my feet and toes in under a week if I started wearing these shoes

If you’re worried about having your toes crammed together in normal shoes, just wear crocs, there’s no need to wear these goofy shoes

People hate on them, but will hype up plain ass van's or crocs.

The thing is that i can't find any barefoot shoes that aren't ughly as sin

I pretty much wore flip flops exclusively until I was about twelve or thirteen. Then teenage insecurity about my flipper feet plus my 2000s emo phase made me switch to converse and closed toe shoes and I actually noticed the shape of my foot had changed over time.

I have suffered for over 30 yrs, horrible foot pain, dizziness, falls, equilibrium constantly off, toes misshapen, toes, under other ones, etc. I read you have to break in barefoot shoes, just a few hours at a time. The pain and mind boggling. I bought 5 different pairs of shoes this years, the same reaction. With inverted arches, my foot Dr said NEVER walk barefoot, but I finally thought, what can it hurt, I can send them back. That was two months ago. I got a kind with toes. I just got my second pair. Today I wanted to see if they have really done that great a job, so put one of the new sandals on. I just feel tipped over. HOW did I wear high heels for years. My feet are NOW able to point, before the ankle no longer bent. For me, I will never go back. I call them my hobbit shoes, and love them. I didn't even want to take them off the first few days, it was so shocking and wonderful to have room. It is more than room though, I have wide shoes. skinny feet with broken toes that are going to recover, if my ankles can change the toes will as well. I already am going to get rid of my old shoes, most never worn more than a few minutes at the store, when my feet were numb.

bro its 22:27 and instead of sleeping i am watching feet videos 💀

All fine if you’re well balanced and have no tiny flaws in the way you walk or the way your bones are set in your foot. These can be painful and cause pressure points , resulting in thick, painful callouses. If you don’t need that cushion these might be great, but a lot of people, including me, could never stand it. I have to wear thick orthotics because I’ve lost all my natural padding on the bottom of my feet. But I’m glad they’re working for you.

“For free”💀💀💀 (If you know you know)

Slippers: dont mind me i dont exist

Me: mom can I have those!? Mom: wich one; Me:👉 Mom: you're adopted. Me:👁👄👁

For people with EDS, having our tendons spread honestly sucks. Having shoes with form and support can help chronic pain.

Girl really opened those grippers like there’s no tomorrow

New Zealanders: so no shoes.

"And they provide little to no cushion" wow what great advertising

I have something cheaper. Be barefoot as much as you can meaning don't even wear socks around your house and everything and only wear shoes and socks when you have to go to school or events or other things that will require shoes. I did that growing up and I still do to this day and guess what my feet are in their natural state. I wear big shoes but they fit and I can pick things up with my feet so I got a big win here. I would even go outside growing up and being barefoot outside my house

“Your old shoes may no longer fit” *no shit I was a bab-*

Just wear bigger size, I always suffer when I wear formal because I end up buying correct size for me because of salesmen pressure but with regular shoes I try to buy 1 number larger. Also it helps to wear slippers at home and in your area. Also being actually barefoot also helps especially in parks on grass, and temples. You don't need weird shoes.

People also wear shoes that are way too small for them, which causes bunions etc. I've never had any problem with my feet because I make sure there's enough space for them.

As far as the shape of your feet, shoes like Hokas are absolutely wonderful. They have a wide set toe space and allow you to spread. Barefoot shoes do provide strength and are wonderful for those whose life types allow them. But for those who often have pain with being barefoot, arch support is not a bad thing. I have worked for foot and ankle specialists and surgeons and they typically recommend Hokas above all else

I wear regular shoes and my feet are very strong and flexible😭 you really don’t need barefoot shoes as long as you keep your feet free longer than they’re in the shoes tbh

I like that the fact not even one people that I knew suffers from regular shoe, their toe just look like what she described as normal toe posture, including me, the secret is we just don't wear those shoes all the time😂 We're 99% always barefoot at home or just simply wesr a sock.

I wore minimalist sandals all summer.. the one day I went to put my old shoes on NONE of my shoes fit! It was your video that made me realize why!

You know if you were the correct size shoe, your toes won't get squished either... I don't have any problem wearing regular shoes and I use my toes like hands all the time.

my shoes pre-covid don't fit because i wore slippers all the time and this happened. you don't need this.

Lol my classmates bully me because i wear barefoot shoes but they are wearing the milk carton type shoes ☠️

I don't need fancy expensive shoes i just want barefoot indoors

I am a 23 year old female, born in raised in SC. I am half Polish half Native American. My family never enforced shoes unless it was church or somewhere that required them. Most of them went barefoot. Including my great grandfather who never wore shoes and was even buried barefoot 🦶 As I aged, they gave me the option to roam barefoot or put on shoes if I wanted to. Even at 23, I only wear shoes if I absolutely have to. My feet are wide and my balance is excellent. I don’t recommend it to everyone because everyone is different. However, it is the way of my ancestors and I chose to continue this way because it feels the most natural to me. I am happy and healthy and I feel I have a deep connection to the earth. I feel it everyday against the soles of my feet and in turn, in the soul of my inner self 😊

"It mimics being barefoot" Which means every tiny sharp pebble is gonna ruin your day

GTAV predicted these shoes

Not me trying to draw a flower with my foot while watching this●.●
