Shoes Inside the House?

[patriciaeclevenger]

Do you wear shoes inside your home? I typically take off my shoes and either go barefoot or wear my house slippers (they're super comfortable). When guests are over I encourage them to do whatever is comfortable but most take off their shoes. The only time shoes stay on in the house is if we are grilling (or something equivalent outside).

What about you?

Try to keep outside shoes off in the house.

As soon as I get home my shoes go off and my slippers go on.

Same here! Shoes are not allowed in my house. We take them off in the foyer before entering the rugged area of the house. But guests are given the option and some take off their shoes and some don't. My husband is adamant about the shoe rules in the house due to his OCD! lol

We are not worried about guests taking off their shoes when they enter the house. We leave it up to them. I myself do not take off my shoes straight away upon entering the house. My shoes are really comfortable (Dr Scholl with built-in gel inserts!) so I don't take them off until I find my slippers. There have been occasions when I have been so busy doing jobs around the house and running errands in the town, that I have not taken off my shoes from the time I dropped my kids off at school until the time I pick them up! Of course it doesn't help that my shoes feel like slippers so most of the time, I forget to take them off!

No I don't take my shoes off.  Unless they are super muddy or something.  Too annoying to have to put them on every time I want to go outside.

we take our shoes off when we come in

In my culture we usually leave our shoes by the front door. But every now and then we ask our guests to leave them on because if they wearing Slippas they might not find them when they leave cause some other guests when they leave before them and have same color them might take your new ones and leave you with their old ones. LOL

I don't wear my shoes in the house. I wear socks in the winter and barefooted in summer.

My shoes come off when I come in the house.  Just more comfortable barefoot.  I keep a pair of flip flops by the door in case i need to run outside for a minute.   My husband will wear his shoes all day long.

I take my shoes off inside the house and put on my house shoes

I don't take my shoes off and neither does anyone else.  The difference might be I have no carpet in my home.  All hardwood or ceramic tile.  So if something is dirty or spilled super easy to clean.

I do take my shoes off, I dont insist anyone take their shoes off, unless its muddy outside, then I ask

[BlackSheepNY]

I used to love to go barefoot when I was younger.  We only have carpeting in the bedrooms, so the hard floors make it pretty uncomfortable to go barefoot.  Not to mention the fact that I live in Arizona and as soon as the weather warms up, out come the Scorpions.  Wouldn't want to step on one of those barefoot!  So no, no more barefoot unless I'm on a beach!

I hate being barefoot, I have to keep my shoes on. Hate slippers. Don't have a single pair.
