The Barefoot Debate

 New York Magazine published a fabulous article this week by Adam Sternbergh. It is an entertaining and interesting read about the role of shoes in our culture and how it impacts our health -- both good and bad. Featured on NPR as well, it has raised some lively discussions.

By the way - it also features some fabulous photos of feet painted in the forms of oxfords, high heels, tennis shoes, etc. (Photos by Tom Schierlitz, Foot makeup by John Maurad and JenaiChin).
