Imagine putting your hands into socks, and then into large thick leather gloves with laces that wrap tightly around them. Every day of your life. Your hands would be very unhappy, and basically useless. Well, that's how your feet feel being locked away in socks and shoes all day, never feeling fresh air, never feeling the earth. Claude Jarman Jr., the 12 yr old who played the boy in the 1946 movie The Yearling, once said during an interview that the hardest thing for him after doing the movie was wearing shoes. "They hurt, and they were hot. I had just spent 6 months running barefoot in the woods in Florida and now I had to wear shoes again. I hated it."
