Painted lines are always cooler too.

Oh man, I don't know how this could be true. I work manual labor, in sneakers. I spend all summer recreational time in either flip flops or barefoot. So while I don't have huge callouses on my feet, I've got some. Not tender baby feet.

But still, one day it was like 70 or 80 out, I changed out fancy clothes into shorts, but forgot to pack my flip flops. I really wanted to walk down to an event that was going on, but I didn't want to wear black fancy shoes with my shorts. So I went barefoot on the sidewalk, about 3/4 of a mile.

I did like you said and walked in the grass a lot, but man the concrete was hotter than I expected. It didn't hurt at first, but each new step I took found freshly warmed concrete that just heated my foot more. Keeping moving definitely wasn't helping. Eventually it started to hurt, even with walking in as much grass as I could.

I got to where I was going, grass covered area, and didn't think too much of it.

When I went to leave? Oh man. My feet hurt. Looking at them closely, I had several blisters on both feet. I cooked em. I couldn't walk back, I had to call my friend to pick me up.

That was on regular concrete. I cannot imagine doing that on asphalt, I wouldn't make it a hundred feet.

Maybe I really do have tender baby feet 🤔

Depends on where you live. In my city, sometimes shoes aren't even enough.

Prolly the same one, yeah! Hippie man was going barefoot in the desert with cactus and snakes. Mad respect to him!

These feets are made for walking.
