      Came here to say the same. I feel like “indoor shoes” are a lot more rare in places where you have a chance of tracking in snow

        What do you mean by that? (English is not my native language)

        We have a moderate amount of snow and relatively long winters here. Most people wear indoor shoes (slippers, Crocs etc) when inside, at least in their own home. At guests we either get them from the host or you walk on socks.

        What does the weather have to do with that?

    Why do people go barefoot in public

    Why do people wear shoes in the office

    Why dont3 I ask women if they’re pregnant

    Because arbitrary customs that exist which might have a good reason behind them but largely have become things that are considered polite or rude, both of which are societal concepts which themselves are worthy of questioning
