My wife, whom you might know from her Flickr page, has started a blog about her barefoot lifestyle. There are lots of barefoot-in-public pics, dirty feet, barefoot sandals, walking on gravel, shopping, and hopefully soon some barefooting in restaurants.

PaintedSole.com

So far we're updating it every couple of days, and hopefully we'll update at least weekly.

Brilliant. Its fantastic to see your lovely wife gain confidence and the pair of you devot time to share her wonderful feet.

You must be very proud, and I hop your wife is also proud of her feet.

Please do let her know the pleasure she is bringing to so many by being so generous with her time and her bare feet

Some updates!





We have several more in the queue.

@bemused - Thanks!

Thanks sooo much for these fantastic pictures. Being barefoot can be soo natural! Kind regards, flip

Just seen the latest update at taco bell

Fantastic!!

The first time you posted pics on here she looked a bit nervous to be barefoot in front of people, Now she looks so confident and proud - as well as spending her own time updated her barefoot blog.

Is she more confident now. What is her motivation now to devote a blog to her bare feet??

This is really special. To see a wife learn about the importance of her feet and go to so much trouble to hare them is magnificent#

Come on folks, this guy and his lady deserve some serious encouragement - and thanks!!

Shes not asking for money, shes just showing her feet off for hubby and letting us all enjoy it too!!

Thanks, guys! She's been completely barefoot for a week, her last streak broken from having worn flip flops to the dentist.

A lot of her confidence is her just getting used to people knowing her as the barefoot artist girl around town. Sometimes, I think she'd be embarrassed if certain people in the local art scene saw her wearing shoes.

There are a number of motivations. One is that we always take a lot of pictures, and she's always posting them to various places anyway. Another is that the more exposure a classy, artistic, intelligent barefooter gets the more it will be accepted in society. And also it's something we can do together.

I glad everyone is enjoying her blog. Right now, we have enough backlog to post every day for a week.

In the blog, I really like the photo of your wife in taco bell. To me it is daring because in the US, almost all fast food places have a sign that shirts and shoes are required.

In UK where i live you can go barefoot in restaurant / shops / shopping mall like in NZ/ OZ there are no signs saying no shirts and shoes no entry only shop that says no in UK is supermarket tesco so as i am a barefooter i do not shop there

kiwifeet thankyou for grate pics of barefootting i loved NZ / OZ for barefooting when i was threre a wondafull place thankyou for shareing your barefoot fotos

Again, thanks soo much for these nice, natural barefoot pics. It would be soo great if being barefoot would be accepted much more in society. I don't understand, what's wrong with going barefoot in public??? Please continue with your work!!!

Tanks and kind regards, Flip

Another update!



A little more barefoot shopping.

A few more pics from the old depot, hanging around the old caboose.

Congratulations to you both for this lovely blog, it is great that she is such a hardcore barefooter, even in winter!

It would be nice to see more close-up pictures of her beautiful soles and to know about the reactions of passers by, friends and family about her bare feet and tough soles.

Thanks a lot for sharing these pictures and part of her life, her experiences and thoughts about being a barefooter.

All the best!

Dear Mr. & Ms. Kiwifeet, I frankly envy you.

I don't know if you make any money out of your blog, and more in general out of Ms. Kiwifeet being a cute barefoot lady.
If yes, good for you.
If not, I believe you are very lucky anyway, also because I guess you are running the blog at zero cost.

You are the perfect incarnation of the spirit of the time, and of the true essence of the digital revolution.
You, and all the amateur photographers/bloggers like you, are showing us old-fashioned maverick craftsmen of adult entertainment that we live on borrowed time: we're ridiculous dinosaurs, bound for extinction.
I have started shooting at 15 (I am 44 now); I have studied hard to improve my technique; I have worked my ass out on my "respectable" day job to buy better equipment, to pay for my models, to cover travel costs to and from the locations of my shootings; I have slept 3/4 hours per night FOR WEEKS to promote my photographic projects on internet.
Wanna know a thing? I AM A CLUELESS IDIOT.
This post of yours on this forum certifies it.
I have read: posted on Jan 25 - 2,267 views. I have seen it's about a blog Ms. Kiwifeet is running. I have had a look at the quality of the pics: not spectacular, but surely honest (indeed much better than those of many pay websites!!! ). The point is... you have TWO WEAPONS I will NEVER have.
1) MS. KIWIFEET LOOKS GENUINE. SHE HAS A STORY TO TELL.
And it's clear that nobody seems to give a shit about her not being Barefoot Miss Universe and the shooter not being the Helmut Newton of Dirty Soles.
2) MS. KIWIFEET SHARES HER PICS FOR FREE. And this is enough of a reason for everybody to love her.

With the many Ms. Kiwifeet around the web, only a very demanding connoisseur of barefoot beauty with money to waste would still consider spending 40-50 dollars per month to subscribe to City Feet, Toes-In-Action, etc (not to mention buying my very peculiar BAREFOOT URBAN NUDITY pictures and videos).

So my hat is off to you, Ms. & Mr. Kiwifeet.
You are basically kicking us old-fashioned maverick pornographers in the ass, towards where we belong: the garbage can.
But no hard feelings from my side, it's not your fault.
It's mine.

I should deffo head to Mantua lakes tomorrow... but not for my barefoot nude flashing photosessions.. TO GO FISHING!!!

Thanks for your encouragement! It's really cool that she's so into it. It was around 40 F here today, and she walked around like it was nothing.

She's originally from New Zealand, so for her family it's no big deal. When her brother came to visit, he was jealous of her ability to walk and run on rough aggregate so he took off his shoes and walked barefoot, too.

She's had mixed responses from passers-by, usually positive. One store clerk at Wal-Mart vocally admired her barefoot sandals, as did a couple of Target employees (though she's been asked to leave a couple of Target stores). A lady at the nursery where we bought plants for our garden last spring was amazed at her barefoot sandals and said that she was going to make some for herself and her granddaughter and start wearing them to church.

We're both kind of semi-eccentric artist types, so our friends kind of expect it from us.
