Now you have to pay to call a shoe barefoot. Touch your toes.

I’ve lost count.

Is this the third time?

The fourth?

The fifth time barefoot is trendy again?

Doesn’t matter. Because each time it comes back, it comes back stronger.

This time it's not because some random guy from Marchena made it go viral.

No.

This time it’s because a specialized footwear technology center—you know, the kind that stamps their seal and sends the bill—said:

“Hey, barefoot makes sense. It works. It’s good.”

And when it comes from guys who get paid to say that, it no longer sounds crazy to wear shoes without 17 cm of foam, or hippie-like to run in sandals.

The lab coats say it too.

Health professionals who aren’t just anybody.

I’m talking about Dr. Juanjo López, Neus Moya, Jesús Serrano.

People with full practices, waiting lists... and Instagram accounts blowing up.

And to top it off, celebrities. Who usually get it wrong, but this time they didn’t:

Luis Enrique walking barefoot like his life depended on it.

Pedroche showing off her toe spacers like they were Tiffany’s jewels.

And now barefoot sounds trendy, healthy, like the thing to do.

Perfecto.

Works for me.

I no longer have to explain what I do every time.

Nor justify why I tell people to walk barefoot or stop squeezing their toes into pointy shoes.

If you’ve read this far, you know what I’m talking about.

You know this isn’t about running like Tarzan.

It’s about walking, living, feeling the ground.

It’s about not screwing up your feet every time you leave the house.

Go figure.

Changing the subject.

Summer is here.

And with it, morning strolls, impromptu getaways, terrace afternoons, and bare feet.

And if you don’t wear the right sandals, don’t come complaining later about your feet hurting or whatever.

Of the thousand sandals out there, I’m going to recommend the real deal.

The ones that helped kickstart barefoot in Spain.

Because now everyone jumps on the bandwagon, but back then it was rowing in the galleys, like the Manolo García song says.

Pies Sucios Simna:

• With 6 mm sole

• Also in 8 mm

They weigh nothing… well, 68 grams.

They hug your feet like your grandma giving you a hug.

And most importantly, they’ll change your summer.

This one and many more, because they last forever.

Careful, they won’t change your life.

But they’ll make it a lot more pleasant.

Efectiviwonder.

Health starts in your feet.
