You probably don’t walk around barefoot in a major population center I’m guessing?
I’m also plenty comfy walking around my suburban neighborhoods and nature trails barefoot but you better believe I’m putting shoes on in the city areas. Even if you don’t step on something dangerous those streets are extra filthy
At this point my soles are so thick that i can’t even pierce them with a sewing needle, i’m vastly more worried about stepping hard on a pebble and getting a blister than any sort of puncturing.
I have walked several hundred miles barefoot over the past two years.
Only thing ive stepped on was a tiny poiny rock. Easy to pull out.
A wild trick i use: my eyes. And look where i place my feet.
Do you worry about picking anything up? Like hookworms or athletes foot, or anything?
going barefoot will make fungal infections all but impossible since they want a warm moist enclosed space to grow in.

I bet I could pierce them with a sewing needle
Theory: You can pierce anything with a needle if you push hard enough. I say we test it out on their foot.
