The other day I was wearing socks casually in my apartment, and then I put my sandals to go outside to get the mail.

Then I told to myself : you fucking retard wearing socks in god damned sandals !!

But in fact, it is freaking convenient, takes 3 seconds, no need to tie any lace or anything, no need to put shoes in a hurry.

Why am I ashamed of myself because of it ?

Is that propaganda from shoes companies, so they sell more shoes because people put them in a hurry, using them faster ?

The only time sandals are okay for men is at the beach or pool (I prefer flipflops for that). However in hotter climates I think you can give a pass in some situations.

I don't even own a pair of sandals.

We all wear them in the south.

I'm in the south and only wear boots for the most part but I don't judge what other men are wearing unless it's something weird as hell.

Exactly, just go barefoot. Toughen up those soles.
