  Perpetually barefoot person here. Your feet start to heal and become normal again after you stop wearing shoes all the time. They can withstand jumps like this.

    Ex-Perpetually barefoot person here. For some people, it works the opposite way!

      What happened to you? Just curious and don’t want to disregard your experience. It helped me immensely.

        The short answer is plantar fasciitis.

        With respect, I hope this doesn’t open a door of treatment strategies or anything. But to cover: I’m on year 5 of it. I’ve been doing all the things. The people in my life used to laugh at how often I was barefoot. My wife marveled at my insane calluses. I’ve always been athletic and never overweight.

        For me the pain got really bad after I went mostly barefoot and wore leather slippers on a week long camping trip, my heels and ankles were hurting so bad it was hard to walk, after limping along like that for a while my arches started to hurt so I went to a foot guy who got me some support soles and stiff shoes with lots of laces to help keep my foot together while at work, it’s been getting better but not good enough to go barefoot yet, that is the end goal but doesn’t seem within reach any time soon
