City-feet members' message board > Barefoot memories&impressions > Other "real" rice cleaner old photos

Here some other old photos of real rice cleaner/harvester.

I precise that are not my photos but I found them on the web.

Obviously are b/w and low quality,but is enough to see them and her leathered soles.

If someone have other photos of this type ,not necessarily rice cleaner,
and wanted to share them, would be very appreciated and thanked.

I will ask to my grandmother if she have some one,but will be difficult to remember
where are placed now

Those are great! The one of the girl in the muddy rice field is my favorite!

Great finds under the barefooting aspect.

About the social point of view, well, I'm not among the ones convinced that "shoes are a progress". Not at all. My girlfriend is the living proof that "them more you're able to live barefoot, the more happy you are", or at least it can HELP happiness (for sure).

But ... the girls working barefoot at the grinder ... I think over the current italian "626" (the law on safety at work) and I smile, wondering where the "exageration" is, on which side.

Now you have to wear safety shoes,the woman of the photo have safety soles :
a thick and hard callous,like the shoes :D ,but I do not know about the
upper part of the feet :unsure:

The only shoes not,but at the time of this photos they had big poverty problems,now not more,and the progress is not just one thing but a combination of things.
