We believe that many people have "ugly feet" because of their footwear. The more you wear shoes, the more opportunities there are for callouses, corns, bunions, toe fungus, athlete's foot, ingrown toenails and other afflictions to mess up your feet.

Barefooters are often told that we have "nice," feet. That's no accident. When we allow our feet to be free, they are mostly able to take care of themselves. The afflictions mentioned above become nearly impossible because our feet aren't always trapped in shoes. All that's required is some simple maintenance (i.e. trimmed nails).
