Permanantly barefoot, semi-permanent on crutches. I can walk a bit without them, but permament nerve damage means crutches most of the time, and totally impossible to get a shoe on so I'm barefoot no matter what
It's hard to say. I go barefoot all the time, and my feet are tough yet sensitive against the ground, yet to the touch they feel soft. A former girl friend never went barefoot, but was a jazz dancer, and her feet felt like rock to the touch. Maybe the pounding of jazz dancing does more to toughen feet than actually going barefoot? Otherwise...walking a long ways over hot asphalt will cause toughness (but don't go to the point of pain and blisters.)
Nope walk on mega hot asphalt or walk in puddles or mud with tide out and my hard soles blister. Weird huh. Guess thats just my feet. Puddles friday meant calious under toes blistered and immediatly able to peel no no wet icky mess. Maybe tattgirls Aussie feet just so
