I've only ever seen this done by Americans. They also have really car centric cities. I guess it kinda makes sense to just keep your normal shoes on to warm your feet if they can't get dirty since you mostly only walk indoors.

    I'm American and I know people from multiple states and I've never heard of anyone doing this. Always surprises me to see it assigned to us online. I'm sure it must happen in some region of the country but I don't know where.

    It's a reoccurring internet discussion you can google. The rest of the world thinks Americans wear shoes inside, even on their beds, because that's what we see in US movies/series, and Americans always deny they'd ever do such a thing.

    I should wear shoes in bed. My feet got attacked by a cat this morning at Oh God o'clock.

    I hate that shit. When someone wears shoes in bed it's all I can focus on and it ruins the scene. As a fat American slob, I'd never wear shoes to bed. The only time I wear shoes inside is if I have to run inside quickly for something on the 1st floor or in the basement.

    I'm not American and I always wear shoes in the house. Why the fuck not?

    So... do you clean them every time you get home? Or is there just not much rain, snow or even just dirt in your area anyways?

    We do have a lot of rain, specially in this time of year, but we have something here that is called a schoonloopmat which cleans/dries your shoes quite good. That together with hard wooden floors throughout the house makes I never take off my shoes at home.
