Posted by: thefootpromoter Jan 7 2015, 07:39 PM

I was over on The Mousepad yestrday and came across a post asking what was the first foot fetish website that we'd ever been on. Straight away I knew the answer but also remembered why I had visited the site in question.

It basically involved the sight of 2 girls who I'd seen at the coast/seaside when I was in my late teens. They were walking around the town completely barefoot and I got to experience the sight of them walking right past me and getting to look at their filthy soles as they headed off into the distance. My full story is on http://www.itsallaboutfeet.com/foot-promoter/article.php?id=14206583086447&title=memories-of-the-first-foot-fetish-website-i-visited-all-those-years-ago if you're interested in reading!

Anyway, as a result of this event the website that I first visited for foot content was a site called Parrot Sites (Does anyone remeber it?) which had quite a few galleries of ordinary women who had been barefoot in public posing their bare feet. This website obviously threw me deeper into my love for barefoot women and ultimately led me onto sites like City Feet which was around but extremely new at the time.

I was just wondering what the first Foot related website that all of you visited was and why? And did you go there because of your love for dirty feet / barefoot women or did your time on those sites lead you to become interested in public barefoot women?

I think my first website was Hawk's Feet Links and it is even still around, bloody hell

He started back in 1991 , wow!
===> http://www.hawksfeetlinks.com

I was always into women walking barefoot but at that time (around 1995) there weren't many websites and you just had to appreciate what you could find. I can't really remember any sites in those days that focused only on barefoot-in-the-city and dirty soles. There were quite a few sites with pretty ladies and their clean feet with pedicured toes, so I was happy because I'm into that as well. I think my first dirty-soles-in-the-city website that I found was a free page from Denmark with some nice candids, if I'm not mistaken. Must have been in the late 1990s...?

I just noticed that your original question is "What made you first visit a foot site?" and not "What was your first foot website".

I don't think there was any specific reason for me to first visit a foot site. I guess I was bored and went to one of the early search engines (Altavista, WebCrawler, Yahoo, Excite) and started looking for all kinds of things and then suddenly had the brilliant idea to type in the term "foot fetish"

One thing led to another.

I just typed in "female feet" in the search engine soon after I got the internet. No particular reason but I just somehow knew good stuff would come out of it.

I found some great barefooting sites soon.

Wild Kitty's barefoot playground
Filthy feet
Melissa's site
feethunter
Sole sister

I think I just searched "dirty feet" to see what would pop up. After not all that long a time search, I came upon "Sweet Street Feet" and discovered to my amazement just how many girls there were wandering Germany without shoes.

I found my all time favorite photo there: one labeled "student" that had this hippie girl sitting down reading a book with her filthy black soles facing out to the camera (her face was cropped out of the photo, I guess to project her privacy).

Anyway, to answer the second part of your question, I've always liked barefoot women, particularly women with dirty feet, so I was seeking it out. But I think Sweet Street Feet got my hippie girl fetish going. It seemed the girls who looked best with black soles were hippies. I still think it's true, hence my fondness for Hal's hippie girls.

I started to have internet connection on 1999, so 16 years ago.

Before I liked to see girls feet on tv and magazine.

The absolute first site of barefooting I visited was "Club dei nati scalzi",in english "club of born barefeet",but of sure this and toes in action were the site I liked and followed more.

Posted by: Feetosopher Jan 8 2015, 09:16 AM

I think that the first ever foot-related site I stumbled upon the first time I had a chance to surf the web without.. undesired eyes around

was the (now defunct) site run by "The Feethunter", with pics of girls barefooting in German cities (mostly Freiburg).
I was already totally into girls walking barefooted in the street, so I typed "barefoot in the street" on Yahoo! (Google was not a presence in 1997, when I started surfing) and out came that site.
As I said, the reason why I searched for barefoot-related content on the web was that.. I was (I still am, and will forever be!

) addicted to barefoot beauties!

P.S. I remember perfectly "Parrot Sites", dear Footpromoter! Cool site indeed!

@ barefootgirls: I guess you're talking about http://www.barfusszone.de/ ? He keeps his site alive, at least in the most common categories like "city", etc.
To the question: I felt in love with barefoot walking girls / woman in my early teenager years, literally it was one of the first things I did with my Internetconnection

to search for barefoot girls, bare feet barefoot, no shoes, etc. There used to be more sites with very little content, anyone remembers Europbeb.com or something like this, with real life barefooters, specially Barbara, the almost 24/7 hippie from Berne in Switzerland? or "Zeigt-her-eure-füsse" .de?.com ? whatever.
Internet didn't much changed my point of view concerning my feet preferences, Girl-next-door faces, neat dressed, Hardcorehippies, Punkgirls; with well shaped and clean or dirty soles.

Posted by: thefootpromoter Jan 8 2015, 05:06 PM

Thanks all for the great replies so far - It's fascinating thinking back to those early sites that so many of you are mentioning, I too visited quite a few of them in the early days of the internet

@jwdf88 - I'm glad that you got the results you were looking for - I too searched for "Female Feet" on a daily basis

@Hal - I remember those early search engines from my school days

- Back at that time I didn't even realised there was such a thing as a "Foot Fetish", so that term was never searched for, however because of those link sites like Hawks I was obviously led onto websites that focused on this, and I loved it because I too love clean feet just as much as dirty feet

@dude - You're right, Germany has SO MANY barefoot girls it's unreal, I must go there at some time, and yes, Hippy girls really do seem to get the blackest of soles, that's why I love them so much

@Clipper - Unfortunately I don't remember "Club dei nati scalzi", but "Toes In Action" - ALWAYS been one of my top foot sites for many reasons!

@barefootgirls - I remember that Flag & Feet logo but can't remember the site. Sounds like your school days were better than mine

lol

@Feetosopher - I know what you mean about the "undesired eyes", I too had this problem much of the time! I actually remember the name "Feethunter", I too must have been on that site as I remember that Germany featured heavily in the photo's I looked at.

@BicycleRepairman - I don't remember Barbara at all, I do however remember Melissa Lynn as being the first 24/7 barefooter that thanks to groups on Yahoo I was actually able to connect & even interact with

Student was my favorite also back then. I just could not believe soles could get so filthy. I always wished we could see the face. I guess we live in good times now where such soles and face are more readily available.

I think this is it. Hopefully we are talking about the same one. If so, funny how it immediately sprang to mind.

This student picture above I guess it is the most notable dirty feet picture ever. Thanks for sharing and reminding us jwdf88!

Posted by: thefootpromoter Jan 9 2015, 10:01 AM

@jwdf88 - I don't actually remember this photo having a specific name (At least not on the site I saw it on) but I do remember the photo extremely well indeed! Always loved how filthy they were but also how the dirt highlighted the shape of her feet where the arches were - Thank you so much for posting this little reminder

Posted by: dude Jan 9 2015, 01:33 PM

@jwdf88, yes of course that's the photo I'm thinking of. I couldn't believe how dirty her feet were either. I still wonder how long she had to go without shoes for her feet to get like that, and if she even realized (or cared) how dirty they were.

@thefootpromoter, yes, her feet are very nicely shaped. I also loved how her left foot is a little bit more covered in filth (you can see her arch is starting to get dirty) while her right foot is more black, but has a better outline. And look at her toes, even the little ones....

I still wonder how this photo got taken. It must have been candid, since we can't see her face, but how did whoever get this photo find her in the first place? It seems a minor miracle to me.

Posted by: dude Jan 9 2015, 01:37 PM

Another long-gone site I remember was called "City Feet" (back before this City Feet existed). I think it was a guy in Vienna. He managed to take candids of girls with ridiculously filthy soles (like "student" above) at various events, like protest rallies and festivals. You can still find those photos floating randomly around the internet sometimes.

He probably just approached her, complimented her on being barefoot and asked her politely for a photo of her black soles.
I used to do that all the time about 15 years ago

Ah, fond memories of those days.

Here's one of the pics I took. I think I approached and shot about 250 random women on the street --- it was really fun

Well, you've got more courage than I do. I mean, I've had brief chats with some of the (very few) barefoot hippie girls I've seen on the streets of NYC in my time, but never could get myself to ask for a photo.

Also, Hal, that photo you posted was what drew me to Toes-In-Action for the first time. Long before Katja and Celeste and Fee and other barefoot hippie models were on your site, I loved that photo. I wonder why one big toe looks cleaner than the other?

This picture was in the original selection of "The Feethunter".
He mainly took candids of women barefooting in the street, and rare "posed" shots like this one, always with the faces cut out.
"Faceless pics" have always been a major turn-off for me.. I'd really like to know if there are other forum members who have the same.. er.. "problem"..

Posted by: dude Jan 11 2015, 04:51 PM

QUOTE (Feetosopher @ Jan 11 2015, 12:24 AM)

I would have preferred to see the face too, but that was probably the compromise that Feethunter made in order to get the photo, was to cut her face out to protect her privacy.

Even without the face, the ridiculously filthy feet are just too good to not love the photo. I'm glad the Feethunter recognized that and asked for the photo. And I'm really glad that the hippie girl was happy to show off those feet.

Thanks, Dude! I love that photo as well. That girl was walking barefoot with her female friends but they were all wearing closed shoes.
But I have no idea why her one toe is cleaner --- maybe she walked into something and cleaned it...?

I have no problems in admitting that my personal tastes have surely been "spoiled" by the fact that I have shot around 130 different barefoot (and.. more than barefoot!

) girls in the last 10 years.. all of them super-happy to show their faces.
This said, I guess that when The Feethunter took that picture (probably in the mid-90s), ending up on internet was probably a no-no for many girls.. so all my respect for him, of course..

Posted by: Duffman847 Feb 28 2015, 02:28 AM

Very good question.

Like many others on here, my preference for feet began back in my childhood - as far back as I can remember. Like quite a few aretifists (such as Andy Warhol, Quentin Tarantino and Elvis Presley) I was relatively gifted and precocious for my age - never afraid to be different or stand for what I believed in, even if it meant alienating a few people along the way!

As there are accomplised artists on both sides of my family, I suppose the appreciation of bodily aesthetics has always been in my blood. I'd say that the real spark was around the age of 10 when my Year 6 (7th grade?) teacher went through a phase of going barefoot towards the end of the day.

Perhaps it was the shock value of an authority figure going barefoot that proved the catalyst, but there was a feeling deep down that I couldn't explain.... yet

A combination of this with the knowledge of sensory pleasures that barefooting can bring matured over the years, and was aided by the onset of puberty, which truly hit around the time that City Feet was launched in the summer of 2003.

From what I recall, the first foot "site" I visited was the now defunct Celebs-n-Legs(dot)com - my favourite pic was this one of http://pics.wikifeet.com/Monica-Potter-Feet-612647.jpg... the way she smiles seductively, and the way the arches slope and her toes are gracefully poised is quite appealing.

After the inevitable surge of searches, I came across (no pun intended!) barefoot-girls net - a classy Italian site which has a combination of pre-existing images and tasteful contributions from girls across Europe and North America.

There was also Barfusszone run by a German guy called Franco (I think). The genesis of my love for miniskirts and bare feet was with http://barfusszone.de/gallerie/pictures/city/Bilder/CITYFLASH_05_jpg_jpg.jpg.

This was taken back in 2000 on a hot summer's day in Vienna, and for the very first time my mind generated a vivid story in which a lady who can brave hot pavement makes a choice to leave the house without shoes. Her legs look great, her soles are obviously dirty and the bag she carries is also far too small to contain shoes!

I seem to remember finding http://web.archive.org/web/20050710011831/http://www.city-feet.com/preview/preview.html. I was hooked by the two preview videos that were viewable (the glass walking REALLY got my attention!) and never really looked back as Paul delivered like clockwork, without fail.

Today I despair at certain sites as corporate greed becomes the norm. One which I loathe is publicfeet(dot)com - it fatally crashed 2 years ago, losing all its data, but reared its ugly head again after a short absence.

Difficult to navigate, rife with popup adverts, hardcore porno, UNDERAGE GIRLS and stolen material. People are welcome to upload as they please without moderation, it's a disgusting free-for-all that goes against everything classy sites such as CF and barefoot-girls net stand for.

By extension it also puts aretifists in a bad light, undermiming the efforts of CF to improve the image of people like us.

Keep it real - City Feet is the king of them all!

Posted by: TwoTubMan Feb 28 2015, 01:52 PM

Does anyone remember "Subgirl?" She had a site that was more S&M related, but she loved posing with her feet, although usually in bondage/foot worship situations (which are not my cup of tea).
But she did have a section on her site devoted to "Dirty Feet," where she and other models walked, and then posed, in various scenarios which made their feet extremely dirty (railroad yards, underground parking garages, and the like).

I actually contacted her once with a suggestion for a photo shoot and she actually went through with it! I enjoy the "Cinderella sitings," girls walking around wearing only one shoe. Since she had that "extreme" angle in her shoots, I thought she would enjoy such a shoot - and she did it! An entire photo shoot (about 80 photos) of her walking around a large American city wearing just one shoe (her other foot bare). There were shots of her getting cat calls from cars going by, her going to Starbucks, her walking down a filthy sidewalk, just wearing one shoe.

There was another site based in Zurich that featured barefoot girls walking through train stations, city streets, city rooftops, underground parking garages, all in bare feet. That site has vanished too. It really says something when you can find more "baby diaper fetish" and "fat girl fetish" and "feeding eggs fetish" sites than dirty feet sites.

I perfectly remember "Subgirl", as I used to be a great fan of the model.. the great http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1423002/bio?ref_=nm_ov_bio_sm!!!
Back in the early 2000s, Molly was very active in everything fetish, and she loved barefooting (and also peeing outdoors!

).
Sadly people changes.. Molly is in fact still active in the adult entertainment industry.. although she has augmented her breasts, changed her "nom de plume" into http://www.emilymarilyn.com/.. and now is heavily in the "shod/latex" BDSM scene. SIC TRANSIT GLORIA MUNDI..

QUOTE (TwoTubMan @ Feb 28 2015, 01:52 PM)

Yeah, it was Molly's Subgirl site that I first went to...I didn't go for any of the hard core, bondage crap, but her natural dirty soles turned me on. After that it was the Feet Hunter....It was later on that I discovered City Feet. The format and the concepts were perfect for me...the models were ideal, and Julia, she of the yellow top and the black mini skirt made me a fan for life.
I also love Hal's Toes in Action, especially the great Katja....and Feetosopher's pics of urban barefooters is sublime. Oh, and I can't leave out the "Slim Brunette in the Underground"..Stella, of course.
I went on the Mousepad for a while because of a certain blonde from Nashville with a kazillion dirty barefoot pictures...all very, very nice....but she was insulted by some jerk on one of her Mousepad pages, and disavowed any interest at all in anymore barefoot pics made of her...and seemed to regard even her fans afterwards as low life creeps...all because of one insulting, jerk-off who offended her. I never bother with the Mousepad anymore because they seem to be anti-dirty soles there. The overwhelming majority of pictures seem to be pink, clean and sterile almost...models that wouldn't be caught dead walking barefoot in public. Nothing like what I come to City Feet for in any way.
For my purposes, City Feet, and all the models rule.....especially my "Top Four"...that I've listed in the "Who's your ATG CF Models?" thread.

Posted by: nudescalze Feb 28 2015, 11:22 PM

I remember the Subgirl website: I liked it because the model was also nude and did dirty things.
Sites with girls that are only barefoot do not interest me: I do not pay money to see clothed barefoot girls, I can go to the lake and see them in bikini (but not topless, because it is prohibited).
I have joined Nude In Public for some months because the models are barefoot, but I have left because the models do not do extreme things, and some friends have told me that to stay nude in public is not prohibited in the countries where they do the sessions (Czech Republic, Hungary, Germany), and so for me it is not exciting.
I have joined Barefoot Nudity because The Feetosopher is from my city (Mantova), many of his models are Italian and do extreme things, and he does the sessions in my country, Italy, where to stay nude in public is prohibited.
I think that The Feetosopher is a genius, a great artist and a corageous man: there is nobody who does the things that he does in Italy, and the quality of his photos and videos is fantastic.

I am extremely grateful to longtime subscriber to BAREFOOT NUDITY nudescalze for his ultra-appreciative words about my site, and my work in general! THANK YOU!

I take the occasion to clarify a couple of aspects.
I have maximum respect for Jan Vels and what he created at Nude-In-Public and NIP Activity. His site and BAREFOOT NUDITY probably cater to consumer groups which have a rather limited "overlap area", and sure I cannot compete with a site which has been around since 1998. What nudescalze says is true, however. Shootings are held in "nudity-friendly" places, and the people involved (models, photo-videographers, assistants) face no serious risks. A BAREFOOT NUDITY model, ELLY, actually posed also for NIP Activity in a Czech city, and told me that people's reactions are at worst puzzled, but often extremely amused, nobody goes berserk and calls the police, and anyway the worst case scenario would be the cops coming and politely asking you to cover up.
Things in Italy are completely different. Even if no law prohibits in a clear and explicit way to be nude in public (Italian laws about everything having to do with nudity and sex make reference to hazy and undefined concepts like "obscenity" and "common sense of decency", leaving the ground open for the interpretation of individual courts, which is usually anti-nudity and anti-sex), if my models get "caught in the act" by the wrong person, he/she would surely call the police, and both the models and me would face extremely unpleasant developments, which could go from a trip to the police station and registration into their files, to possible legal action and a trial in court, which could end up with everything from a fine up to 300 Euros or up to three years in jail.
This is why both me and the models pay maximum attention not to be "picked" by anybody. Sessions for BAREFOOT NUDITY require hours of study, careful planning, prudence, intelligence and rapidity.

All my respect for "clothed barefooting models", of course.. but basically ANY GIRL who is good looking and not uncomfortable with barefooting can pose for sites like BAREFOOT URBAN GIRLS, City Feet or Toes-In-Action.
Posing for BAREFOOT NUDITY, instead, requires truly outstanding qualities (total body control, rapidity, vision, intelligence, prudence, courage), which go far beyond sheer exhibitionism and obvious barefooting skills.
Posing for BAREFOOT NUDITY is like a commando action behind enemy lines.
This is why BAREFOOT NUDITY and its models are so special to me.. I LOVE YOU, GIRLS!

I was always into barefoot girls, even as a young kid, but I didn't get a chance to really "play" on the internet until about 1998. Given my interests, I just typed "barefoot" in the search engine, and BAM, why mind was blown wide open!

I think the first site I visited was probably the Dirty Sole Society, which seemed awesome, because hey, this is where women who like to go barefoot are proclaiming it. I quickly realized that I was not welcome there, which was a huge disappointment, but there were plenty of other fish in the sea. It worked out for the best anyway, since the actual female members of the DSS seemed to be minimal. It was dominated by obnoxious middle-aged men acting as white knights to protect their (very few) female members.

Moving on to the good stuff, I agree that dirty, outdoor bare feet were rare in those days, but an early favorite was Dennis Cramer's Mara site. His videos had their flaws, but he was one of the first to really make this stuff available, and even VHS quality was better than most internet video at the time.

As for the others, I think they've been mentioned: Parrotsites and Sweetstreetfeet were pretty big deals. jwdf88 also mentioned Wild Kitty's Barefoot Playground, which was great, because it was one of the first sites where the guy focused on his girlfriend/wife in outdoor barefoot adventures (and she showed her face).

Does anyone know if any of Wild Kitty's old pics can still be found anywhere? It would be great to see some of those again, even if the photo quality is dubious.

The old sites really didn't have the quality or the slickness of today's best sites (which include City Feet and the Feetosopher's sites, for sure) but there was a charm to them, and the excitement of new discoveries all the time. It was like a frontier, that's now been tamed a bit.

Being a lifetime lover of barefoot girls (in public or otherwise), I remember first going to a site that had to do with "Apartment House Wrestling" purely ficticious "wrestling matches" between girls in bikini's in an apartment setting. These all had numerous pics of dirty, or black soles as the "wrestling" girls went at each other. It wasn't long after that, I was checking out the G.L.O.W. site, for their videos of Little Egypt, Little Fiji, and Princess Little Feather (I think that was her name)..all little gals..as indicated by the "Little" in their names. Little Egypt would belly dance on her way to the ring, and had the dirtiest feet of all...a beautiful little treasure she was...and still is.
After that I reached the pinnacle of barefoot sites with City Feet...
