Hey, at least your ankles look very healthy.

The most autistic people I know wear sandals all year round. People laugh about sandals and socks but you're right -- shoes are evil! I'll take looking like a dork over having sore feet all the time.

  I am sorry if this comes as and ad, but you need to experience some modern cushioned sneakers, ie: https://runrepeat.com/asics-gel-nimbus-27 https://runrepeat.com/asics-gel-nimbus-27 You can walk, run, stomp around in them all day and your feet will thank you. They do have some cons though. They are expensive and not very eco-friendly (hard to recycle).

    I have such a pair for running longer distances. This scan was part of choosing them. They hurt a lot to get used to (Mostly barefoot for 8 years makes for a hard transition) but now they are good (necessary even) for jogging and distance running. They still feel like horrible rubber hooves you strap onto your feet.

    I wear a pair of these in size extra wide: https://www.brooksrunning.com/en_us/mens/shoes/road-running-shoes/adrenaline-gts-24/110437.html?dwvar_110437_color=423 https://www.brooksrunning.com/en_us/mens/shoes/road-running-... But you're right, I wasn't introduced to something like these until very recently, when a particularly knowledgeable shoe nerd touched my feet and instantly was like "oh, I know what your problem is, your feet are all weird, you can't be wearing standard sized shoes." Then he went to the back and brought me the above shoes and I had a legit Cinderella moment. Before I became aware of extra wide, I would typically be caught wearing shoes a size too big, which is why I had so many problems.

  The comfort of high quality worn leather shoes is next level. I have some 10y boots that feel better than slippers. Not to mention way more breathable. Leather is nature's goretex
