Barefoot in shoes without socks
It’s not just a feeling, it’s a statement. But as with any trend, there are do’s and don’ts. Let’s dig deeper into this fascinating style choice and how to make the most of it.
The why of the trend
At the heart of this trend is the desire for simplicity and authenticity. The direct contact of your foot with the inside of your shoe gives a certain kind of naturalness that many of us lack in modern life. It reminds us of summer days in the park, at the beach or just playing in the garden as children.

But this trend also has an aesthetic dimension. Omitting socks, especially in certain types of footwear such as loafers, gives a sharper, cleaner look. It says, “I am both fashionable and effortless.”
Bare feet in shoes, the benefits
One word: Breathe. Without the barrier of socks, your feet can really breathe. But that’s easier said than done, right? That’s where PediSpray® foot spray comes in.
By using this spray regularly, you can ensure that your feet remain sweat-free, which is not only more comfortable, but also extends the life of your shoes. There is also the advantage of convenience. Fewer socks means less laundry, which is always a win-win in our busy lives.
Considerations and concerns
While there is much to be said for the feel of bare feet in shoes, there are some considerations to keep in mind. Direct contact with the inside of your shoe can lead to additional friction, which can sometimes cause blisters. Moreover, although PediSpray® is great for sweat, what happens when an unpleasant odor develops?
Don’t worry; we have a solution for that, too. PediFris® shoe powder is specially designed to combat those nasty odors, keeping your shoes fresher longer and allowing you to go barefoot with confidence.
