Another option. Very comfortable, look and feel great and ‘barefoot’ design.
Multi-purpose indoor training shoes?

Interestingly, my Kendo teacher used to insist that it was better to have baby-soft skin on one’s feet than thick, dry callouses. The reasoning was that soft skin has a lower coefficient of friction and callouses tend to rip off in whole, painful sections! He was right and so to this day, I look after my feet, exfoliating and moisturising regularly. When I see cracked, calloused heels in sandals, at eye level when going up escalators, it makes me gag!

Dude I don't mean THAT calloused. As soon as I see cracks I use pumice stones then moisturise as well. Learnt the hard way ages ago that having soles that look like continents is not healthy.
