But I did. These guys have been a great help and encouragement through some tough times for me and they probably don't even realize it. - PagangoddessBarefoot is the shit.
Actually, in my own gym, I go barefoot, shirtless, sockless. I love it.

Socks here, on DL and squat. I see some guys like it for bench, too. I'll have to try that.

Do you think flip-flops would be a decent compromise, since my gym probably wouldn't like me being barefoot? I have a couple that are pretty worn out so they shouldn't have much cushioning.

Your gym probably won't allow flip flops either. What about socks? I wear black socks with black workout pants and I don't think anyone even notices.

I say just try going totally barefoot and see if anyone says anything. I was nervous about it at first but soon found that I wasn't the only one in my gym going barefoot.
