Do you wear footwear when nude in woods?

Do you wear footwear when nude in the woods?
Today I spent a hour in the woods with nothing on my feet and nothing on my skin. I was completely exposed. Felt way better to not wear footwear. What do you think?
Posted a couple of pics in my profile because I liked it so much. Will become a regular event for me now

While I agree it feels better being 100% naked, here in Oz there are too many sharp, prickly, thorny and bitey things in our bush to hike barefoot. So I hike with shoes, but take them off as soon as I get to my destination. :-)

If the trail is clear, then I am barefoot. That I enjoy the most, but sometimes I have to wear sandals if the trail is rough. I start to toughen up my feet in the spring so that I can walk on just about anything and love it!

Even tho its a great feeling not to have anything on i have to wear footwear in the woods so the sharp rocks or thorns dont jab me in the feet

I guess I'm kinda wimpy and have sensitive feet. I need some sort of solid foot covering on my soles other than just a beach sandal.

Always barefoot as this is very good for your feet. Is like a massage and strenghten your skin. Of course in the beginning it does sting and hurts but every time you go barefoot again it hurts much less until you reach a level of great comfort. A lot is down to training with your body.

while i'd love to go fully barefoot, beyond my backyard or other residential locations, it's not an option in a lot of places around here... too many rocks and thorns.. and then when you get out into some of the hill country, there are snakes to watch out for. so a good collection of shoes and boots, for hiking, biking, campground walking, etc. are nice to have.

Being naked and barefoot is awesome. You feel one with your surroundings. But it all depends on what is underfoot. Stones or thorns can hurt. Why not carry some slip-on sandals? Maybe add your camera but nothing else. It is even more awesome to be separated from your clothing or any form of cover-up.

Though I prefer barefoot, it all comes down to the terrain.

Interesting. I am going to separate myself from my clothes next time I go out for a nude walk. Maybe today...part of the excitement is the danger of being seen - has not happened to me yet
