    The more appropriate question is why Not???

    It is very healthy to go barefoot.

    Going barefoot strengthens the muscles in the feet and legs.

    Some footwear can be harmful to overall foot health.

    There are no health codes or other regulations that prohibit barefoot customers from being in business establishments, including restaurants.

    It is legal to drive barefoot and safer than some footwear.

    In general, being barefoot promotes healthy development of musculature in the feet and legs, while excessive reliance on shoes tends to promote atrophy and weakness in those same muscles. This suggests that overdependency on shoes can have serious consequences. A study published in the September 2006 issue of Arthritis and Rheumatism found that “modern shoes may exacerbate the abnormal mechanics of lower-extremity osteoarthritis.” Researchers concluded that maybe it was time to re-evaluate our daily walking programs,

    presumably to include time for walking barefoot.

    Walking barefoot is also a good way to avoid athlete’s foot. Contrary to a widely believed myth, it is not the sole-to-ground contact that presents a risk so much as it is feet going back into the moist, dark, warm environment found inside shoes. Closed-toe shoes especially are ideal incubators for fungi and bacteria to live and breed. Allowing the feet to “breathe” also prevents foot odor.

    The spirit of barefooting is, or at least once was, alive and well in all of us. Do you remember how good it felt to go barefoot when you were a child? Even now, as adults, do we still have that spirit? When we can’t wait to get home and relax after a hard day, does this mean kicking off our shoes in order to do so? Or, if we are planning a holiday or vacation, do we factor in the proximity of sandy beaches, grassy fields, or a natural trail well-suited for bare feet? Can any of us truly imagine being fully comfortable while wearing shoes? Yet how often do we choose the barefoot spirit? How often can we? The truth is we all have the freedom to go barefoot whenever and wherever we want. Most of us, however, just don’t realize it. If we knew it was OK to forget about shoes when it was time for walking the dog, getting the mail, or even while out shopping, how many of us would choose to go barefoot? Why render our feet deaf and blind if we don’t need to? Imagine having to wear gloves or ear plugs every time you left the house. Think of all the wonderful sensory input you would miss. Now imagine expanding avenues of sensory input. Imagine being able to feel the wide variety of interesting textures and pleasant surfaces beneath your own two feet as you go about your daily business. You can.

    “Going barefoot is the gentlest way of walking and can symbolize a way of living-being authentic, vulnerable, sensitive to our surroundings. It’s the feeling of enjoying warm sand beneath out toes, or carefully making our way over sharp rocks in the darkness. It’s a way of living that has the lightest impact, removing the barrier between us and nature.”

    From the book “Barefoot Dreaming” by Adele Coombs

    She probably just likes going barefoot. I've been barefoot for eleven years, it's very comfortable and contrary to popular belief, it's healthy too. She'll most likely *not* have athlete's foot; it's a fungus and needs a dark, warm and slightly damp place like the inside of a shoe to grow. It is very rare among populations that go barefoot more often.

    conscientious about animals and planet earth and the rights of fellow human beings. I admire her and Love her singing voice .

    She's probably more comfortable that way. She likes to color outside the lines.
