      Even in more tropical countries it’s healthier to take off your shoes so place in which you sleep and eat is not filled with dust and dirt. I’d say it’s mostly cultural heritage and a bad one at that. I’ve been into many more tropical countries than Spain where people take their shoes off all the same and their winters don’t drop below 18°C.

        Why is it bad to culturally take your shoes off? I am from Hawaii and we always take our shoes off. I think it’s cleaner and a good cultural practice here.
