I live in Finland, and people take their shoes off in their homes almost universally. At the office? It's about 50/50. Some people work in their socks, some have indoor-slippers. In my previous two companies I'd take my shoes off every day when entering the office, leaving them in the handy shoe-racks near the entrance. In my current job I admit I tend to keep them on, but that's largely because I'm smoking more than usually and putting my boots back on and off multiple times gets annoying in an office environment.
