We are generally a shoes off household. we have stupid white carpet (why would you put white carpet in a place on a dirt road?) that i get drycleaned every year but it doesn't take long for the stains to appear, even with not wearing shoes inside.

At the moment i am struggling to get my shoes on and off easily (i wear runners that lace up) due to the big bump in front and difficulty bending, so i have been a bit slack at my place. At other people s places though i still take my shoes off.

It is just so much more comfy to get the shoes off.
