OK. Feet should be equally dirty. The score is quite clear: 8-1. Thank you all for your votes and comments!

Well, if you read my comment again, you will see that I did not object at all to your right of expressing your desires about CF content (or the content of any other site). Consumers rule the market, not vendors.
I just said that the more peculiar are the desires, the less likely it is that you will find a dude who is willing to build a site ENTIRELY devoted to the kind of stuff you desire. Nothing more, and nothing else than that..
But of course you might be lucky enough to find the right dude with the right stuff.. time will tell..
As for my considerations about fewer and fewer dudes willing to spend money on barefooting-related paysites.. they were general ones, surely not targeted at you. But they are based on sad facts, and even sadder figures. The average combined number of subscribers to BAREFOOT URBAN GIRLS and BAREFOOT NUDITY in 2019 is around 50% of what it used to be in 2014-2015.
I have managed to keep both sites online without sacrificing quality through a series of adjustments.. but it's getting tougher and tougher.

Thank you BFwatcher. I am on a limited budget so have to choose my pay sites carefully. I thought his response was not only unfair but quite condescending. So I prefer natural feet and unglamorous models. Sue me. I’ve had several exchanges with Paul of Cityfeet in the past and he never came across this way. And he’s found a lot more natural chicks who are not disgusted by public barefooting. Maybe they are easier to find in Russia.

Yes, those crutches and injured feet sites. So many of them. Plus the hardcore foot worship and B&D sites. And food crushing sites. I guess my micro fetish is in the very very slim minority. But if you read the YouTube comments on C4 Interactive’s page, you see a lot of comments asking for full videos and even offers to pay for them. I saw that the site was set up in Utah so maybe the webmasters are Mormons trying to bait us “sleazy foot guys” 😆. Maybe I’ve seen Punch Drunk Love too many times.

OK, point taken. it´s not easy to find a vendor who would be willing and able to cater for your special idea of what the content should look like. Let´s hope that the sites you identify with most (in my case CF, TIA and BUG) stay around as long as possible. They all operate globally, which is an asset, as they might find a decent number of customers more easily than if they were only national operations. Fingers crossed!

As for the way I reacted, actually it was the tone of your comment. I found it a bit mocking, that´s all, but no probs really.

You´re welcome. You know, Feetosopher can be rather outspoken at times, but I don´t think he wants to harm anyone.

Speaking about natural feet and unglamorous models strugling with one shoe, well who knows, Paul might be reading this and one day might surprise us! That is if he is fast enough and doesn´t allow Mormons to step in first!

By the way, who is your favourite CF model?

The answer I gave to @bfwatcher is also valid for you, sir.

Nothing personal against you, of course, and no problem at all if you basically hate anything that I love (and feature at BAREFOOT URBAN GIRLS)

If you took offence for anything that I wrote, please accept my apologies.. as @bfwatcher observed, I am often outspoken and hard-nosed,
but I am not into attacking people for no reason at all.

Most of my rants in this forum are aimed at nobody in particular, and are a way to digest my frustration about the recent "evolution"
of "barefoot-themed entertainment" on internet.

I guess that you would NEVER be a subscriber to my sites.. but I think that I will manage to survive..

I cannot but re-state what I wrote to @tubMan.. if you took offence for anything that I wrote, please accept my apologies, @bfwatcher.

Most of my sarcastic rants in this forum are aimed at nobody in particular, and are only a way to digest my frustration about the recent "evolution"
of "barefoot-themed entertainment" on internet, as well as about the fact that despite I rip my ass off to deliver quality stuff at both BAREFOOT URBAN GIRLS and BAREFOOT NUDITY,
I am getting declining commercial success and appreciation in return.
Probably I must come to terms with the (very sad, to me at least) fact that the types of barefoot beauty I celebrate on my sites have become unfashionable.

As long as I am not losing too much money on my sites.. I'll keep them online. And then probably I will quit. Nothing tragic, after all.
Kingdoms rise, kingdoms fall.

@Feetosopher: I have subscribed to Urban Feet in the past. Your ex model Uma had all natural feet in most of her shoots and were the blackest of soles I have seen on any site👍
Until unfortunately the rain came down and cleaned them.

I am taking a financial break from sites for now.

I can only imagine the economic woes having such a site would involve. My frustration comes from the lack of what I look for on any site. There must be very few individuals out there who like what I like.

@BFWatcher: as for my favorite Cityfeet models, Ira wins by leaps and bounds.
Natural feet, long feet, rolled up jeans, clearly loves going barefoot, even in snow.
And fulfilled what I looked for for years (another micro fetish..): all bundled up in winter clothes, including gloves, but totally naked feet in public:

http://www.city-feet.com/models/69/view

A few others I like:

In particular, her nameless friend—I love how she teased us with her feet in sandals in the first shoot, and then took her Keds off to go totally barefoot for the second shoot. Also incredibly dirty soles:

http://www.city-feet.com/models/179/view

Lena...even though she has some decorations on her feet, her broken sandal and subsequent barefooting was epic:

http://www.city-feet.com/models/235/view

Anna: state of the art feet with high soles.

http://www.city-feet.com/models/159/view

Julia: Frisky, beautiful face, filthy soles, even puts on one shoe (only one shoe) on her dirty foot for a few seconds. Anklet barely noticeable since it’s not too flashy.

http://www.city-feet.com/models/119/view

Finally, even though she has painted toes in most shoots, another Julia and her barefoot visit to Egypt where she’s barefoot in various outfits (including a winter coat at the Moscow airport) is the Citizen Kane of barefoot shoots. Her feet are all natural, no polish, for the what appears to be a multi day barefoot journey. Positively filthy soles while walking through the streets of what appears to be Alexandria, Egypt.
Yes she puts an anklet for some photos but the positive aspects of her bare feet in this series (natural feet and toes, large feet, walking on many different surfaces including tarmac at an airport, clearly enjoys showing off her bare feet in public) outweigh the negative.

Thanks Feetosopher, but there´s no need to apologize. We´re discussing stuff, that´s all.

Believe me or not but I see why you´re frustrated. You work hard and a tangible result in terms of your revenue is nowhere to be seen. Perhaps people don´t have enough money anymore. It can´t be about the quality you offer. What´s available for free is nothing in comparison with what you, Hal or Paul produce. You say that kingdoms rise and kingdoms fall, true, but without you guys around, life wouldn´t be the same. Yes, we argue about what a perfect content should look like, but at the end of the day, you three deliver exactly the stuff we only dreamt about before the Internet made all this possible...

tubMan, you´re not alone, man! These girls are my favourite models too! I totally agree with what you have to say about Julia. She´s just perfect and for me she´s the best CF model ever!

glad to read that my guess was wrong!

There are actually several Barefoot Urban Girls (including UMA, but also SWAINS.. see the picture below) who seldom use nail polish.
However, as many dudes deffo are into polished toes, I must keep a balance between natural toes and polished toes at BUG.

As for my frustration.. it is further amplified by the fact that I do not aim at getting a profit from my sites. I am happy with reaching break-even.
I earn a living on a "standard" job. My sites are just a self-funded, serious hobby.
Yet even reaching break-even has become very challenging, especially in the last 2 years.
Judging from the number of webmasters of foot-themed paysites who have quit in the last years (including famous ones.. Fair Adam, Lord Lucan..),
the decline is a general one. For a dude of my age, this is seeing the world you have loved falling apart.

Whatever.. as long as I am not losing too much money.. you can count on BAREFOOT URBAN GIRLS and BAREFOOT NUDITY being around..

great to know that you did not take offence from my words, @bfwatcher!

And thank you so much for your words.. they have made my day!
As you know, I run BUG and BN as a self-funded, serious hobby.. so the appreciation of connoisseurs plays an important role
in helping me to hold on in spite of disappointing business results, and of all the nuisance that running adult sites implies!

@Feetosopher,
Thank you for the photo and heads up on Swains. You feature her a lot - great you have a regular model who clearly loves going barefoot. Just a few questions- is she ever asked to not enter places or to leave due to her bare feet? Does she bring sandals or flip flops just in case? I hope the answers are “no” to these questions 😬

Also, this is a comment I’ve made to Paul as well in the past, have there ever been requests to have just a few photos of the models in shoes, including sandals, at the start of the shoot? And then the model takes them off and ditches them as Lena did in one of Paul’s recent shoots?

Hello there, you are welcome!
Both SWAINS and AMELIE are personal friends of mine (not just models), and they live in my area.. these are additional reasons for shooting them often.

Coming to your questions about SWAINS:
1) Not in my presence.. and SWAINS has never told me about any unpleasant experiences in that respect.
Italy is not a modern country from many standpoints, but I can say that most people do not show openly hostile attitude towards barefooting.
Probably also the wonderful looks of SWAINS and her outstanding elegance help a lot in preventing any unpleasant behaviour towards her
2) I have made no mysteries about SWAINS equally loving barefooting and high heels.
When we meet for shootings, she always comes barefooted and goes away barefooted.
I have never asked her whether she carries emergency footwear in her bag.. I do not know, frankly speaking.

As for your third question.. to date I have received several requests to have my models pose in heels or hoses from start to finish
(obviously I systematically reject both types of request ).. but no request of the kind you have mentioned.

Don´t mention it. I´m glad that those few lines helped lift your spirits a bit.

Let´s hope that there are still enough girls in your neighbourhood willing to kick off their shoes and a few more dudes worldwide willing to invest a couple of bucks in it.

By the way, an awesome photo of SWAINS foot and fascinating info about her attitude. She is amazing. Coming barefooted and leaving the session barefooted does speak volumes! An outstanding woman!
