Maybe you guys should come over and visit my town....I will be your tourist guide and show you the best barefoot streets & places

We`ve been having some bad weather the last 1-2 weeks, but today it suddenly turned extremly hot and sunny....and suddenly there were bare feet everywhere.

I hung out with Katja today and took some pics of her. On one pic this guy was checking out her feet.
The tops of her feet were all dirty because she had walked through a muddy puddle an hour before.

Thanks a lot Hal! These pics are superb, not only video captures but high quality real pics. Katja is gorgeous and her tough soles are so hot!

Hey Hal these pics are *really* good! Pleeeeeze update your site with a set of these as soon as possible!

About 20 years ago it was common to see 6 or more barefooters in Greenwich Village in NYC. I dated one I met after I said to her "I see we like the same color shoes!" as her feet were as filthy as mine. She often stood on my feet with hers if we were standing in a line. In Washington Square Park I'd often see barefoot women with very dirty soles. One woman, Jane, always had black feet up past her ankles. I think she was living in the park or street. Today, there no no barefooters to be seen. Rarely someone will slip off her shoes on the lawn or in the fountain.

I agree,, nice shots and some really nice tough soles. Is she 1 of the gals that can put out cigarettes barefoot? I'd love to see a nice shot of her doing that.

Those are great pics, Hal. Katja has that hippie look that goes great with the tough bare feet. It looks like she never wears shoes!

Thanks a lot, guys!

Yes, Katja is a free-minded hippy girl who walks barefoot most of the year. She is also one of the girls that can extinguish a cigarette with her hard soles. I have it on video somewhere.

She actually just left for a big hippy festival today and told me that there are tons of barefoot girls there....but unfortunately after 1-2 days the entire area is covered with dangerous glass from all the broken bottles that people throw/drop on the floor (which are only cleaned up when the festival has ended), so everybody starts to wear shoes for their own safety. Apparently there are always still a few hardcore barefoot girls who don´t even mind the bottles

Cheers,

Somewhere? Oh, please share that with us Even if you don't put it on your site. If I had shots like, I'd had it on here as soon as possible. She is quite the treasure.
And, as far as the hippie fest goes, that sounds like a video paradise. Especially toward the end to catch those super hard core who would be still barefoot on all the broken glass. That would better than you ever stage in a photo shoot.

I have it on video...it is part of a clip where she walks over some sharp gravel and other stuff. I´ll add it to my site some time in the future.

Yeah, that festival is probably a dream come true except if the girls cut themselves really badly....she said, that this happens as well because apparently it is a broken-bottle-nightmare. There also seem to be a LOT of drugs involved at that festival, which just makes people careless (the ones who drop the bottles and maybe also the barefoot girls...who knows).
I´m not a festival guy so I´ll probably never go there but next year I may give Katja a camera along so she can take some pics.

Oh, I agree. There's a big difference from ability and barefoot lifestyle to deminished capacity. And I would never like to see any injury in either event.
The camera idea sounds like it might work.
Katja sounds a little like Jenya. A barefooter and a photographic observer.

I see you have some model car crushing clips. What did you think of the ones I posted, where they did it barefoot on YouTube. That's got to take some strong/ tough feet the way they jumped on them and smashed them.

I´m into crushing so I thought those clips were pretty cool. I usually prefer fruit/food/balloons but barefoot car crush is quite a turn on. Lately I´ve had some of my models crush cars barefoot as well...a few of them also have really strong feet.

Excellant Hal
I posted some with plain crushing, but the one where the jumped and stomped on them,,that took some seriousl tough feet or strong feet. If you look close they're stomping on wheels, axles and sharp plastic with their full weight and not even a flinch.

And I love the audio is going, you can hear how fun they're having and the crunching sounds.
I'd like to see what else they could do,,pop cans. Maybe light bulbs

Probably walking over hard piece of plastic require tough soles,but I prefer to see
very hard gravel / rock walking !

Hal Heaven ,tell me where do you live , I will transfer in your city....
I'm joking !

Thanks for the pictures !

Had a decent sighting today, a woman walking down the street in Manhattan in the mid-afternoon carrying her heels. Her soles were slightly dirty, so I'm guessing she hadn't been barefoot for very long.

It wasn't the ideal of the hippie girl with pitch-black soles and no shoes in sight, but I'll take what I can get.
