    Can I have a Augmented Emperor's Boots?

    We all know where this is going to head, but I'm going to ask anyway. I would really like for my character to look like it's barefoot. The Emperor's boots shows, for Elezen, smallclothes-sandals. It would be appreciated if we could have footwear that allows for a barefoot look. Is there any chance for this?

    I believe the models are created with the slope of the foot appropriate to the sole on those shoes. So while I agree with you completely, and would use the heck out of a true barefoot glamour, I don't think it's likely.

    They replied to call outs for this before, said it'd be unrealistic for people to run around rough terrain barefoot or something to that effect.

    Bottom of your feet harden up so it is entirely possible. I spend as much of my life barefoot (hate footwear XD). Theres been a study showing that it is healthier to walk on natural ground barefoot than shoed. Somehthing about grounding the bodies natural electricity.

    Compare your characters feet wih the emperor's boots and without any shoe in this slot and you would see that the emperor's boots works as intended. It make it like there is no shoe equiped in the feet slot.

    It is more because those "sandals" are part of the character model and not something like gear that can get changed easily.
    they could bring foot gear ingame, that look like barfoot, but then the skin tone would maybe be not correct. Or put an option into the character creator to change the foot type.

    Removing them can also result into the character floating some centimeters over the ground.

    I think people that really want a true barefoot option would take that trade off.
