I'm not convinced that will happen. I have some lingering foot issues that are not fixable, to my knowledge. I think I will always need some kind of footwear for at least a layer of protection for when I hike over rocky terrain. Plus, I'm not going barefoot in the winter. 😁
Oh yeah. U thought same. Now I walk bare foot in the summer and trying to find appropriate barefoot shoes for winter. (But for office I still need something more conservative unfortunately)
