Working Outdoors

I mentioned several times in this blog about nudists wearing only a t-shirt. This time I want to talk about footwear. Specifically, working footwear. There are many times when having the right footwear is key.

As much as I love life in the nude, my being nude tends to cause some laziness. Why? Two reasons mainly:

1. The desire to stay naked clashes with work that needs to be done outdoors (privacy concerns, etc.) If I avoid those tasks because being naked is more enjoyable.
2.  Not having the right footwear. If I'm barefooted and clean, I'm in relaxation mode!

Most nudists we see are in the process of relaxing in some way or another, like suntanning. In that situation, barefoot, flip-flops, or sandals are obviously best because they're minimal. In that situation, minimal footwear is fine. After all, if you're wearing something like flip-flops on your feet, are you really going to be able to use a shovel efficiently anyway? No, you can't stand on it hard enough to break soil without doing damage to your foot. Also, because our feet stick out in front of us, they are vulnerable. We are prone to favoring our toes when we're doing work, and we tend to jump back if something threatens our tootsies.

If you're moving, lifting, digging, or whatever heavy chore you may be doing, you need the right stuff on your feet: Boots. I'm not talking about cowboy boots, although those would certainly do the job. They just don't quite have the right look when you're wearing nothing but a smile:

Granted, those guys weren't working.

Having the right footwear is a necessity when you're working. Being able to wear no clothes while working is just a bonus! If you're working in plain, ol' dirt or mud, barefoot is a great choice. It just adds to that good, nude feeling of being connected to the earth. If you're really working, like using power tools and heavier materials, you need to wear boots like these guys:

You want to see an example of someone that should be wearing foot protection but is obviously running with his brain disconnected? Look at this guy. Even if you're okay with flying object danger, you're still going to end up with chlorophyll-colored feet :

When I mentioned being barefoot in certain conditions, here's one that would not work. Boots required, baby!
