Barefoot down the street or in public, still socially acceptable? (quokk.au)

As summer comes, what’s the general consensus on going shoes off down the streets, into the servo, quick hop out of the car?

I feel it’s mostly relegated to a coastal town thing these days, but you still see some brave people in the city.

do what makes you feel comfortable. as a Canadian not living anywhere close to Australia, I'll go outside in the snow barefoot to get the mail or pickup parcels the delivery donkeys dropped in the snowbank. Same with our summer.

if someone doesn't like it, don't eat off the ground and I won't walk where you eat.

basically, just giv'er bud!
