I have dogs and for the last ten years or so, owned indoor sneakers. I do not like slippers or sandals so I buy some running shoes or something, cheap ones, on sale. They last forever because it's indoor only. I replace them when they get smelly.
I do not wear shoes that have been outside, in my place.
Works for me!
Carpets need to be cleaned more often if you wear outside shoes inside, or if you go barefoot inside. Wearing socks (better) or slippers (best) inside keeps carpets cleaner longer. Hardwood floors are easier to clean with bare feet.
I really prefer hard floors and area rugs that are small enough to be washed in a machine.
I have a pair of slippers inside if needed, but I really just keep my shoes by the door and wear socks.
Slippers inside the house and a pair of clogs/loafers for stepping outside (take out trash, get mail, etc.). You don’t need a pair for every room in your house.
Also if you don't already have it, get a longer shoe horn so you can also slip into robust shoes more easily!
I have house moccasins by Softmock. Swap footwear by the door. If I am putting my feet up on the couch or whatever the mocs stay on the floor. If I have to go outside, shoes go on. I have outside mocs(the old worn pair of house mocs) that I swap to for quick outside excursions for trash, mail, dog. I used to have an old pair of converse low tops with the backs folded down, but I don't wear chucks anymore.
I have slippers for when I want to cook in the kitchen or nip outside for a minute, etc. Other than that, I just wear my socks indoors.
Also of course, don't wear dirty shoes past the entryway of the house. If they're not dirty that's another story, but if they are, off they come.
I wear moccasins indoors. My partner wears slippers. All shoes are at the door either on the floor (under a slim table for keys and accessories) or in a shoe rack (for her shoes; I only have three pairs).
I never wear shoes in the house, and rarely wear socks unless it's really cold.
say I’m cooking all day on Sunday then need to take the trash out. I’m assuming it’s change shoes, then say the grandkids stop by and want to go go for a bike ride? I’m assuming it’s change shoes.
If I'm going on a bike ride then yes, I put shoes on (I'm not "changing shoes", because I had no shoes on to begin with). If I'm doing something quick outside like taking the trash out, I'll either just stay barefoot or maybe slip something like Crocs on if they're close by enough to be convenient. You know if your skin touches the ground outside, it'll be fine right? It also dries way faster than a sock or a shoe if you go out in the rain. It's entirely fine.
