Closer connection to nature.
Shunning of societal norms.
Hippie influence.
Pregnant feet.
Anti-materialist statement.
Wants to be Diogenes.

Could be any of these really. Pay attention to context, and check your nearest large university for women not wearing shoes to class and ask them why they do it. It's a real thing that happens in real life.

Those shoes are ridic.

Why pay for something that emulates what you already have at the end of your legs. Running on glass or a jagged twig isn't really that big of a deal unless your a tard.

>your a tard.

Nevermind this, but how exactly does your intelligence factor into whether or not running on glass is a big deal?

Well only idiots don't look at the ground ahead of them when they are running.

A bigger issue is running on hot ground. Idk bout you but in Texas trying to run on concrete barefoot means you have a mental illness.

This.

Concrete in warm weather is fucking painful.

Why is there always a footfag in every thread ever?

>> No.4050364

Because this is the internet and foot fetish is a relatively common one.
