Their foot steps sound like they just have 2 pegs for feet… they hit so hard.
And they frequently, almost daily, spend the entire evening stomping around the entire footprint of their apartment.
Are there people who really just get the top floor, and think “I’m so smart, and everyone else can get fucked” then proceed to make all the fucking noise in the world?
Many people have terrible gaits and slam their heels down as they walk. I don’t know how someone comes to walk this way, as I’d imagine it is comfortable or great for the joints.
Typically it’s due to shoes
I spent a lot of time barefoot as a kid and now I wear barefoot shoes when not at work, I walk on the balls of my feet
My roommate slams his heels into the ground hard enough I can tell when he gets home as I can hear him walking up the stairs outside the apartment
He wore shoes all the time as a kid and primarily wears boots
What are barefoot shoes?
Shoes that don’t restrict the feet movements. Basically gloves for feet. Only protect superficially to allegedly allow the foot full range of motion and train and stimulate the use of all the muscles when walking and running. They reached peak popularity back in 2010. Recently some studies had questioned this claims as they seem to increase the rate of injuries, for of course, they provide no ankle support or torsion protection.
Basically shoes that are super wide for your toes and have no difference in height between your heel and the balls of your feet
They also are typically quite light weight
They take a little getting used to at first but after the little break in period there really nice
These are the ones I’ve got
