My feet are in excellent condition for my age. Why?  I’ve always worn well-fitted footwear.  No squeezing my feet into unnaturally shaped shoes for the sake of fashion. 
Many women have foot problems with calluses, corns, bunions, hammertoes, nail fungus, shortened hamstring tendons, poor circulation…
I’m most comfortable going barefoot!
My problem with walking is arthritis in my knees, inherited from my mother’s side of the family. I used to walk for many miles, but cannot any more. I use a walking stick except around the house.

I watched the first few minutes and this looks like a very interesting video.  I have saved it on my phone to watch at small increments when I have time. :popcorn:

Like Seraphina, I also prefer to be barefoot at much as possible.  I even sometimes garden barefoot (as long as I am not using a large shovel to get weeds out or doing something where I might chop a toe off). 😅

Our boys wall and sometimes even run on gravel because they go barefoot so much that their feet are "hardened".   I always look forward to the warmer months when I can "hide the socks" and let him go outside in saddles or crocs. 😅
