BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: In recent years, barefoot running has received a lot of attention in the footwear biomechanics literature; it serves to reduce the occurrence of overuse injury and is also associated with comfort when compared to conventional shoes, unless minimalist shoes aim to mimic the mechanism of barefoot locomotion. In different parts of the world, the prevalence of barefoot wear varies widely. METHODOLOGY: A total of 510 people were sampled for analysis during everyday activities, school, and sports to assess the prevalence of the barefoot population. Students were asked how much they were barefoot around the house, during sports, and at school to identify students and non-students and categorise them by ethnicity as being barefoot or shod. Participants were also asked if leg discomfort had prevented them from jogging in the preceding 12 months. If you're having trouble walking, consider about the shoes you're wearing the most. RESULT AND CONCLUSION : In our study (n=510), we discovered that ethnicity divided 86.9% of students and 13% of nonstudents into two subcategories: rural 42.6 percent and urban 57.4%. In which 32.3% were classified as generally barefoot, 1.490.679 reported being barefoot most of the time at home, and more than half of the sample reported going barefoot at least half of the time while sport (1.090.850, 17.270 t test = P0.05). There was no leg soreness that prevented them from running, according to 78.7% of the participants. and 50.8% of those who walked reported no discomfort. The prevalence of leg pain differed between habitual and shod wear respectively. Also, we find out 51.9% participant find comfort in flat slippers.
