[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We remove our shoes in the house, but when we have guests who are not family or very close friends we put our shoes on for their visit, so that they feel comfortable keeping theirs on.  I would never ask a guest to remove their shoes, although I do remove mine when visiting people with shoeless households.

I can’t imagine having a dinner party with work associates and everyone is walking around barefoot or in socks.

Cleaning floors after a gathering is a small price to pay for guests’ comfort.[/quote]

Is too.

Kids’ friends always have to take shoes off because they run in and out.

My husband and I take ours off when we are home, but do t require adult guests.  We also wear shoes when we host.[/quote]

This is what we do.  I ask young kids (under 16) to remove their shoes in the mudroom when they enter.  Adults may if they wish, and we will provide slippers for their comfort.  We always wear shoes when hosting (it's part of your outfit, after all). Wearing slippers at your own dinner party looks absurd.  The PPs with shoe free homes must look assinine having formal events in their homes, with everyone running around in socks and slippers while dressed nicely.  Talk about ruining the effect.[/quote]
