Historically America was a frontier, meaning that we arn't pansies and arn't afraid of dirt and needed to wear boots all the time because our house might be attacked by a bear and fighting off bears with bare feet isn't fun that is why they call bears bears.
We don’t you fucking retard.

Why do Americans like "advertising" with their clothes?

You ever watch Die Hard? Danger lurks around every corner in America. The second you take off your shoes, you show weakness and bad things happen. My shoes don't even have laces so I can slip into them, grab my gun and blast people if I have to run outside on hard terrain.
To elaborate on this, I think maybe it's also a cultural holdover influenced by other frontier conditions like most people having dirt floors or not bothering with spittoons when chewing tobacco.
Its probably regional, I certainly don't wear shoes in my house. Unless its the dead of winter and I need a pair of slippers or something. I know a fair amount of people who wear shoes into their basements even if they have cement floors down there. Other than that I've never even heard of this.

I paid $90 for my Mutombos. Unless I'm in the shower, I'm wearing them mofos. I will get my moneys worth.
The floor gets swept and mopped every day so what is the big deal? Is this just another example of foreigners being lazy?
because I can't get everyone to take off their shoes until it's too late so I gave up
I don't wear shoes inside my apartment and I keep and make people wear those surgical booties if they want to come in otherwise they can get lost.
Only if I'm tired, drunk, or whatever. I've slept with my boots on a few times but I was never well when it happened.
Were you in prison when you slept with your boots on?
Eww, wearing shoes in your home ruins the tatami mat.
Remember this scene with Dave Chapelle as Rick James? Yeah, that's pretty much what you're doing to your carpet every time you walk on it with shoes after you've been outside.
I for one prefer not to grind dirt, shit, cigarette, bodily fluid etc. particles into my carpet from the outside.

I don't wear my shoes inside my home, and I can't think of anyone that does. Why fuck up your carpet tracking a bunch of dirt and crap from outside into it?
