The Netherlands look red but it's definitely a shoes on country. People find me weird for asking them to take off their shoes. Any idea how nasty the roads are? Any idea how easier it is to clean your floors when you don't bring all the nastiness from outside under your shoes? Plus it's much better not to wear shoes in general, for your feet. That's why I wear barefoot shoes outside and nothing inside. Because outside is naaaasty. Otherwise I would be barefoot everywhere.

I'm Dutch speaking Belgian, so culturally similar I guess...

I generally don't wear my shoes at home, and I don't know anybody who does, but it is considered weird to ask guests who are not staying over to take their shoes off, and it would be considered weird to voluntarily take your own shoes off in someone else's home. It is more a question of intimacy and is considered getting too familiar. So unless you're really familiar with each other, or you're staying over long term or something, guests keep their shoes on.

In practice, I take my shoes off when I'm at my parents' home, or at my girlfriend's place, everywhere else they stay on, even at friends' places.

I think Netherlands is more mixed nowadays than a hard shoes on culture. Like people keep their shoes on if they have visitors over like a party and they don’t ask their visitors to take them off. But when they are home alone it’s shoes off or slippers. Like many people have underfloor heating so there is no need to keep the shoes on.

Though I know some freaks who don’t take off their shoes until they go to bed.
