>>445399Why use rubber-soled hiking boots when you're in an environment that naturally produces the materials required to make straw sandals, if you're even into the whole footwear thing. Straw sandals were good enough for Jesus, and he was the son of God, for crissakes.
Doesn't matter if you use footwear or not, it's all down to preference. You don't need to score 'hardcore' points with anyone, anon, you don't have to impress anyone.
If you feel you need it, wear straw sandals, just like Jesus did. If you feel that you are holier than Jesus, then use your rubber-soled hiking boots. Chill out.
