I never thought to check the thickness of the insoles!

Oh yeah. And the footbed underneath that as well! Now that I've injured my feet from barefoot shoes, all those elements are more important than ever before. I used to not notice these things at all! Hope your feet are feeling great these days :-)

@@joseoctaviomorenorodriguez9541 it is really an individual thing. For me, I found that I spent so much time walking and standing on really hard concrete or uneven pavement here in England now, so I ended up injuring my feet. Also, it is quite cold here in the winter, so I found I need more padding and warmth for my after work walks. Now, the only place I would wear barefoot shoes would be on pretty flat natural ground but if it's warm enough, I probably would rather actually go barefoot :-) the problem is I didn't really get injured until two years into it, but now I regret having done it because I need more support and cushioning than ever before. My feet are just not back to normal now. The only thing from it that I like is having wide to boxes, so now I try to find traditional shoes that have this feature. I also found in Mike's experiments that overly cushioned shoes aren't good as I mentioned in my video as my feet can't feel where they are in space or in relation to the ground rather :-) I have a longer video on barefoot shoes that you might want to check out with all the different features to think about.
