Cheap �10 boots most of the time. I'm mostly a careful person with my feets (touchwood), so these few days I was wearing nice heels that went with my outfits - the one time I needed to replant a blueberry the dog dug up, the hard bottom of the heels are very good for it actually..
But sometimes... Barefoot. I like the feeling of the ground on my feet
If it's super dry I poodle on out with my comfy slippers - we have hard floors which get swept daily so not too worried about traipsing muck in Otherwise pink clogs or ankle height wellies if really wet.
I like shoes I can just slip my feet into - no having to bend over and pull anything up or tie laces. Too impatient to get outside
Very much the same here as I just garden at home...I wear fit flop mules for slippers, these are great for gardening in when it's dry or if I'm just pottering in the GH. When it's muddy, or I need something firm on my feet I have a pair of slip on steel toe cap safety shoes.
If Im gardening at home, Im usually barefoot too. Actually most of the time Im barefoot, I find shoes/boots/socks very restrictive, hence the reason for the post!
I used to barefoot a lot in my younger days but, ever since I sliced my toe open on broken glass, I keep my shoes on outdoors. Been there done it, got the scars to prove it
I'd love to be able to walk about barefoot but the amount of rusty nails and broken glass I've dug out of the garden this past year stops me outside, and I have two cats so the past experience of stepping on a still-damp hairball first thing in the morning means socks at the very least!
