I was dubious at first but your feet will thank you for it. Less chance of sweaty feet or athletes foot and waterproof trainers simply don't make sense...as soon as that water gets in over the top...we're all doomed! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gnasher16 30,025 Posted August 21, 2023 Report Share Posted August 21, 2023 Men cutting about with no trotters on just looks dirty hippy type behaviour to me,im sure it has its benefits but unless you're at home or on the beach it just looks wrong.....feet are disgusting enough at the best of times let alone being dirty. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
