Not that I mind, but... wearing shoes has a purpose... and the most important one IMO is to make sure our feet stay harms way from broken bottles, nails, stuff like that.

I'm not even gonna get into how cold it must be not wearing them in the winter... or how hot the asfalt might get during the summer. The asfalt can go up to 80, 90°C where I live during the summer, people have fried eggs on it for kicks.

Very interesting, thanks for sharing. Lucky for me, both balance and posture during hiking have not been a source of discomfort or pain for me before. Although I can imagine clambering over rocks might be faster with less bulky footwear because it's easier to balance.
