Go Barefoot Day

Go Barefoot Day

Whether you’re at work or not, find a way to rebel against shoes, be it running barefoot through the grass and pampering your feet, or kicking off your shoes under your desk at work when your boss isn’t looking. Show support to the charity Soles4Souls, a global charity trying to put shoes on the feet of 300 million underprivileged children.

National Go Barefoot Day is a day where people are encouraged to go barefoot. It is celebrated annually on the first Friday of June. The purpose of National Go Barefoot Day is to get people to appreciate the feel of the earth beneath their feet and to connect with nature. Going barefoot also has health benefits, such as improving balance and strengthening muscles in the feet. People who celebrate National Go Barefoot Day often do so by going for walks or hikes, swimming, sunbathing, or playing outdoors.
