    Ah, this reminds me of uwabaki (上履き) back when I went to elementary school in Japan. Outside shoes and inside shoes which are called Uwabaki are different. The only time I use Uwabaki outside is in an emergency situation. I remember doing this in 2011 Earthquake

      Those are similar to what I wear indoors: typically slip on shoes with a soft sole.

      For some reason I don’t feel productive if I’m not wearing shoes.
