      I do that too.

      They’re bright white Allbirds that would get too dirty too quickly if ever I wore them outside, so it’s a bit of a mental nudge for me to take them off and put on my outdoor shoes in case I forget to do so.

      …sidebar: how do I clean bright white fabric shoes? it’s bleach, right? I don’t know why I’m intimidated by the task.

        I would try dish soap and a toothbrush first. If that doesn’t work, a weak bleach/water mixture might work, but make sure to rinse it well. Too much bleach can discolor it. I’m sure there are some howto videos out there.

      See that’s definitely shoes on. The existence of house shoes - sliders and crocs - demonstrates that some people in that country are shoes indoor people. Those types of shoes exist purely to facilitate a shoe on lifestyle.

        For me, I have a tendon issue in a couple of toes that refuses to heal. I can’t walk around barefooted without aggravating it. So I have a couple pair of slides that are only house shoes.
