Seems like it's a statement being made about excessive hygiene norms. Personally I feel the soles of my feet afford some protection, but not enough for certain public places. I have no direct experience of Tesco, maybe they are especially clean.
- BillinghamJ 10y agoI think it may be more a question of how clean the patron is. If they tend to walk around public places with no shoes on, one might imagine that their overall hygiene may not be particularly good. Most likely though it's a health and safety policy - sharp things on the floor, etc.
- cardiffspaceman 10y agoI'm a fairly square, non-trouble-making, shower-positive individual who loves going around barefoot. I might think Tesco is the wrong place, but I wouldn't assume anything about a barefooted person.
- brokenmachine 10y agoWearing shoes in a public supermarket is an excessive hygiene norm?
- cardiffspaceman 10y agoNo. Sorry to have expressed myself poorly. Requiring people to wear shoes or else leave is the norm that I was thinking of. And to be clear I was trying to imagine what the reason would be for someone else to go barefoot.
