Barefoot was not an option, but these shoes met the grounding requirement, were safer around metal and glass in mfg, AND were extremely comfortable.

Because you've deformed and weakened your feet. Give it time and you'll rebuild the muscles in your feet, and ankles, once you do, your whole body is rewarded
Rubber is a modern thing... If you use a boot with real leather as a sole, with no plastic between the sole and your feet, probably you would be good to go 💪🏽 Like all of our ancestors probably did!

Been wearing barefoot, zero drop shoes for a few years and I love them. But I have struggled to find a good zero drop wide toe box work boot as a farmer.
If I'm not mistaken, barefoot shoes are for the foot to be as if it was barefoot, vs constricted in a traditional shoe, but it is Not grounded, as most are still rubber soles, or similar. There are however "earthing" shoes, aka "grounding" shoes and sandals etc that relay some of that negative electricity found in the earth that you normally need to be barefoot to receive. ...Are there any "barefoot" shoes that are also truly "earthing" shoes? That would be awesome. ...Great videos, keep up the good work.
Simple, excellent advice! I’ve been experimenting with getting grounded for just over a year now. Unfortunately, we have bark scorpions all over this area, so I can’t be barefoot as much as I’d like, but I bought a grounding mat and I find that it really makes a difference in my pain level. Even after the first time or two using it (I sleep with my lower legs and feet on it) I could tell a difference - and it has helped more, the more I remember to use it (rest my feet on it while I work at my computer, etc). I’m glad you did this video, and hopefully some of the critics will do some research of their own and improve their lives.
I have been grounding for over a half a year now and I totally swear by it health wise. I sleep grounded, I am grounded when I sit at my desk and also when I work in the field on my vegetable farm. Ground as often as you can daily and sleep grounded and you will notice positive effects. Back pain gone in 3 days. More energy and a clearer thinking mind. (that's a bonus at 65). It cuts down inflammation which causes many health issues. You won't hear much about this from the medical industry because it would cut down on a lot of medications.

Same. I'm 6'-6". My job and the work I do around the property requires stacked heel boots but when I'm in the house, barefoot. A lot less back and hip issues. Also, got to let your feet breathe. Shouldn't keep them cooped up in socks all the time. Perfect environment for all sorts of other issues.

Theres a lot of research actually that shows grounding helps with inflammation, blood viscosity, hormone regulation, etc.
Florida man here, been running barefoot every morning for almost a year now, and going without boots whenever possible. It has toughened my feet and helped with back pain
1. Back pain can be managed by lifting weights and training and strengthening your core. 6'3" and I fixed my back pain by powerlifting. Squatting will also open your hips. 2. Chiropractors are quacks. The founder of the practice genuinely thought bone adjustments would fix your "spiritual energy". IE witchcraft. One also caused a dissection of my mother's carotid artery and gave her a stroke. Why would they fix your problem when you could just come back next week for more? 3. Went to clog/open toe style shoes this year and its a ton better. I need shoes at work (healthcare) and use thin crocs. Much improvement.
In a similar vein I switched mattresses to a japanese style one that's 3 inches, all cotton and resting on tatami mats. Much better for my back and no more sleeping on polyester
If yall do a job that pretty much requires muck style boots but you like the barefoot feel you should checkout NRS boundry boots, ive had mine for 3 years now and there perfect for any muddy jobs where a knee high boot is necessary
i stopped carrying my wallet in my back pocket simply by hearing what you said before and looking at it objectively noticing its definitely more comfortable without that block on one side.

As a sound engineer who is currently learning a lot more about electronics, I think you're onto something big. The body is mostly an electrical organism, where chemicals move place to cause electrical differentials (neurotransmitters, minerals, etc. changing place.) However, people forget about the total amount of "electrons" that exist inside our body, that align with the planet we exist on. Our planet is constantly being charged by the Sun with wave after wave of plasma, which contains charged particles that changes the charge of the Earth at any given moment. The Earth is a "sink" for this charge due to its massive size. I believe Tesla thought of the Earth as a giant Capacitor/Inductor that could ring at a specific frequency, that he could harness the energy coming from the Sun and beyond by tapping into it in a very specific way, just as we do with a Colpitts Oscillator, tapping into the power supply by using capacitance and inductance to create a resonant "tank circuit". Science is very new. It's a few hundred years old at best. Nature is timeless - as long as the Universe has existed (13.7billion years by our current understanding). We are adapted and optimised to our environment in so many different ways. I trust in Nature a LOT more than I do Science, even though Science can catch up at a later date and provide us with useful insights. Science, however, isn't current. It can't give us results right now. It's latent and will always be. This is why I trust Nature first, then Science later as a verification tool.
@@14jc47LOL. He is able to benefit from being a “sound engineer” without going to engineering school. Any other engineer would know that science has been happening for millennia, long before the scientific revolution.
Dont know about grounding, but i wear zero sole shoes when im not in my work boots because i do 20k+ steps in a factory and theyre the best way for my feet to relax after
Chemist here. The grounding is horseshit , I give it at least a decade before common sence catches on. People still solving if Alkaline water is better or worse.....even tho its already known it doesn't do anything 😒 Gimmicks and sells... The zero drop is real...that's it
I garden and fish barefoot in the woods and on the beaches jetties when your feet are bare you are more careful and nimble and after a while it is second nature
I was walking down my street barefoot about a month ago on a day that the sun warmed the asphalt nicely. I came across my neighbor who couldn't believe I was walking in the street barefoot. I was like why not? It feels good. The only thing he could come up with is that I could get my foot cut by the imaginary glass the recycle truck left behind.
I never came around to the idea of grounding, but as someone with foot issues from my time in the army, I have come to believe that going barefoot often is extremely important for the muscles, tendons, and joints, not just in your feet, but throughout your whole body. I still can't go barefoot, however, because I live in an area with lots of pokies and thorns on the ground. But in my home and in my yard, I go barefoot often.
There's more than a few studies that show some serious health benefits from just a few hours of going barefoot a week. Posture, back issues, foot health, potentially mental health...
If this man was in Southeast Asia no one would dispute him. You keep floors tidier and work differently. If you want footwear it's no problem get on the job and earn some.
Back in 2013 i got suspended from school for going bearfoot. They even made a new rule based on me as a must to use shoes. I did it, when everyone said i was crazy.... now whos crazy :)
Ive been wearing flat sandals for the past 10 years and it has helped my knee pain. I am 6'7". Used to wear boots all the time and the pain started to get really bad.
i just learned a little about grounding from a couple of people i know ... they have grounded bed sheets with a silver threading and a wire that plugs into the negative terminal on an outlet ... says it does wonders for their sleep ... and they also go barefoot a lot of the time ... who knew, go figure.
I cut the cord off my toaster. I touch the positive to my forehead and the negative to my toes. First night I woke up three days later. I was on the floor with nasty muscle pain. Gonna try again. I’ll lyk how it goes.
I could see how you could have back problems from wearing logger boots. I wore those for a while on my job. Had HORRENDOUS back issues, that went away as soon as I tossed them in the trash. Those things are brutal.
Even going barefooted on the garden or if you can, at the beach, has benefits for your health. We need to discharge the electrons on our bodies to the ground, and having a rubber barrier, cement and all the urban stuff blocking the way is a problem.
I don't always go barefoot outside, but when I do, I always find a goat head!! 🤣🤣🤣 As a kid, being barefoot was a requirement!..... However, thinking about it... What's worse? The shoes? Or the concrete/paved surfaces? Remember, years ago, people just had dirt floors.
If going barefoot hasn't helped your pain in hips, knees or ankles, you might need custom orthopedic insoles. Some of us already have feet malformed in childhood, lateral flatfoot, and you absolutely need to give your feet that extra support
I'm pretty open-minded with health stuff but my feet are way too sensitive being raised in the city and never ever even going without slippers on in the house😅
As a beekeeper, I’ll pass. I can assure you a beesting to the underside of your foot is a pain like no other. As far as back problems, I’m 6’5”, and had back pain for many years, I thought due to my height and occupation. The right mattress is a game changer. Nothing fancy, just an expensive, good quality materss. My back is still tired and sore at night, but by morning it’s recovered. That’s something the chiropractors never ask about either. They are happy to have you coming back every month.
Problem I find is no shoe manufacturer makes shoes for humans. They try to make a 'one size fits all' type shoe, but it fits no one. The minimal ones aren't any better, but at least they don't have a heel. We need to go back to custom cutting our own sandals.
"You will be more intentional with how you walk", obviously true but also having grown up barefoot on farms in Africa, you won't believe how hard your feet get. Broken glass, nails, no problem. When that 1inch thorn hits you up the side of the foot, not so pleasant but you get used to it. Also we a grew up here barefoot in the winter, you don't get sick more often and the first time I ever heard about flat feet was a visit to Europe.
As someone who's flat footed and was always suggested as a kid to get a heal and ankle and arch support. My common sense said those doctors were wrong. We weren't meant to live that way. You support that arche and it can't support itself.
Been wearing the Alaskan by Magical Shoes all winter and its by far the best barefoot shoe period. beyond comfortable. Learning to walk without shoes, While wearing shoes is quite a unique thing to go through
@@xxxlonewolf49 All im saying is i could 💯 see how a direct connection to the earth could be beneficial. not to mention the fact that it makes ur feet stronger

As a kid, being barefoot was a requirement!..... However, thinking about it... What's worse? The shoes? Or the concrete/paved surfaces? Remember, years ago, people just had dirt floors.
I think a recent study showed your red blood cells are able to move more easily while you're grounded
Please cite the peer-reviewed study so that we can all read it.
How about cleats with copper insoles connected to the spikes?
If going barefoot hasn't helped your pain in hips, knees or ankles, you might need custom orthopedic insoles.
Some of us already have feet malformed in childhood, lateral flatfoot, and you absolutely need to give your feet that extra support
I'm pretty open-minded with health stuff but my feet are way too sensitive being raised in the city and never ever even going without slippers on in the house😅
Wow! Im glad I live on the east coast. West coast fellers are getting weird.
As a beekeeper, I’ll pass. I can assure you a beesting to the underside of your foot is a pain like no other.
As far as back problems, I’m 6’5”, and had back pain for many years, I thought due to my height and occupation. The right mattress is a game changer. Nothing fancy, just an expensive, good quality materss. My back is still tired and sore at night, but by morning it’s recovered. That’s something the chiropractors never ask about either. They are happy to have you coming back every month.
Problem I find is no shoe manufacturer makes shoes for humans. They try to make a 'one size fits all' type shoe, but it fits no one. The minimal ones aren't any better, but at least they don't have a heel. We need to go back to custom cutting our own sandals.
How do you ground on concrete?
Magically, of course.
I use a grounding mat in my bed
OK
I'll bite
Grounding in bed?
East coast men knoweth when to wear foot wear
Not sure about going barefoot on concrete in a workshop. You become the ground tester for all your electrical power tools.
Do you sleep on grounded sheets also?????
"You will be more intentional with how you walk", obviously true but also having grown up barefoot on farms in Africa, you won't believe how hard your feet get. Broken glass, nails, no problem. When that 1inch thorn hits you up the side of the foot, not so pleasant but you get used to it. Also we a grew up here barefoot in the winter, you don't get sick more often and the first time I ever heard about flat feet was a visit to Europe.
"Proho has catlike reflexes" love it 😅 Anyways, I really like the content you produce, so thank you dude.
As someone who's flat footed and was always suggested as a kid to get a heal and ankle and arch support. My common sense said those doctors were wrong. We weren't meant to live that way. You support that arche and it can't support itself.
Next video will be reviewing First aid kits
Das Boot. Cody is a tall champion.
Been wearing the Alaskan by Magical Shoes all winter and its by far the best barefoot shoe period. beyond comfortable.
Learning to walk without shoes, While wearing shoes is quite a unique thing to go through
As a man with a foot fetish, I truly support this idea of naked feet. The only thing that I find more appealing is a well fitted cranial rug.
"SHOES ARE THE PRISONS OF THE FEET"--my dad born, 1929 he NEVER wore rubber sneakers.
It's been nice now that the snow has passed! The earth barefoot feels great after a long day of sweaty boots machining metal.
I’m in a similar situation. I’ve noticed that very stiff pants or restrictive pants add to my back pain as well.
Sciatica is a b*tch.
ProHo takes responsibility for his own personal safety. No Nannys need apply.
Be careful and deliberate. And mindful too. Great moto
Can't wait to see the follow-up video after something breaks your foot or toe.:)
I’m wearing barefoot shoes exclusively for about a year now. Best idea ever
I hear ya man.
That's why I only wear Crocs now.
hidden cat found 3:01, then he said "cat like relaxes"
Perhaps Indian moccasins might be worth looking into.
Humans are meant to be connected to the earth. Maybe not full time but regular grounding makes a lot of sense to me.
If you think shoes 'unground' you...stop doing drugs
@@xxxlonewolf49 some do and most do to a degree.
@@xxxlonewolf49 All im saying is i could 💯 see how a direct connection to the earth could be beneficial. not to mention the fact that it makes ur feet stronger
@CainnechK Strengthing the feet is good, agree on that. Sayings it's for "grounded" ELECTRICITY is hippie nonsense. That is the same nonsense as 'healing crystal'.
@@xxxlonewolf49 yea i agree that crystals are totally BS but i see how having direct contact to the earth could be beneficial. I’m really not convinced either way but i don’t think it should be totally dismissed
Here in Australia today I've been laying in the grass next to a creek watching TH-cam and a danger noodle snuck up on me 😅 i dove one way and he slithered the other, then i went back to TH-cam. Act accordingly
By grounding yourself and drinking lots of water, you become more alkaline. Those funny-looking communication towers that make your ears ring and dehydrate your body while you sleep....THEY hate when you break their brain cancer causing electromagnetic circuit...Hope nobody knows what I mean.
Do you hear a constant ringing in your ears that everyone puts down to tinnitus, but you know isn't?
Do you feel a tingling in your hands and feet on occasion or perhaps constantly, especially at night when you are relaxing? Do your sinuses feel like they are "dialating" as if from eating a hot pepper for no apparent reason?
And/Or,
Do you wake up feeling super dehyrdrated in the morning?
If so welcome to my world...The wonderful World of Gates and Gang coming to a cell tower near you...
God Bless
Yes
Yes
Yes
And yes
@@SisterShirley Unfortunately here is another. Graphene is pressure activated. Clench your teeth and tighten your jaw muscles. Graphene will cause a high pitch noise in your head.
The louder the noise the more graphene in body. Tell everyone you know to try...God Bless
Any time I go barefoot, I get stung on the foot
It never seems like chiropractors are actually able fix anything, I've always thought of it similar to a massage in terms of what it does for you
Here in MN i ground has much has i can let the kids play outside without shoes all the time.
Thank you,Cody. I appreciate you doing a video on the Alaskan Boots.
Yep, and barefoot foot running is amazing as well.
I’m gonna try this myself. All of this makes so much sense.
just make sure you dont do this in spots where there are hook worms and whatever else!
Imagine working in your shop and you drop something heavy onto your feet you'll know all about it barefoot ..
Just because it’s common, doesn’t make it right.
