If my feet have city filth on them at the end of the day I'll simply rinse them off with a hose before stepping into the house. The technique I...
I like the pure natural pheremone smell coming from a true barefooter's soles- that very subtle sweet aroma coming straight from the glands, and...
I lived in Southern Cal for a couple of years and it is a weird place. People are extremely conformist and won't go barefoot in public. I got...
Just yesterday I was stabbed by a rusty barbed fishing spear. My housemate was cleaning out the shed and put it, along with a pile of other...
I go on long barefoot walks along the railroad gravel several times a week. It's really coarse crushed rock and feels really good to my feet. In...

The sentiment at Burning Man regarding the arson was quite positive. People had a sense of humor about it, and celebrated the unusual turn of...

I did an "ice cube test" yesterday, where I took ice cubes of similar size and put each one down on different surfaces and measured how long it...

If the crack doesn't hurt then I wouldn't worry about it. I get the big toe cracks as well, and I usually ignore them. This summer, however, I...
Don't worry. This happens only at the beginning. Soon your feet will toughen up and you will never have this problem again.
Yeah I can attest to the above comment. I used to stub toes often my first couple of years going barefoot. Now I hardly ever do it. Maybe a small...
I haven't gotten a blister for about 20 years. And I walk around all day on hot streets in 100+ degree weather each summer. I think it only takes...
