The video began with Fritz explaining:
"My husband and I removed the bottoms of all of our shoes."
"We decided to start walking barefoot, and one of our followers had a great idea."
She continued that they had to get creative in order to go sans shoes in most places of business.
"Since some businesses don't want us being completely barefoot...if we cut off the bottoms of our shoes, it allows us to be barefoot but blend in with everyone else."
"This is a huge commitment, but we were willing to make it."
The video then panned over a variety of shoes, from Jordan 1s to Golden Goose to Burberry, as the creator explained:
"These are our favorite shoes. Our shoe collection is worth more than $20,000, but this is a sacrifice we're willing to take because walking barefoot means the world to us."
Though the kicks were pricey, Fritz explained the payoff is invaluable.
The creator then shared the assembly of their bottomless shoes, from removing the soles to "making a lip on the bottom where our toenails will go."
Next, the sole-less couple ventured to their "favorite" store Sephora to see if they could get away with their new invention, and it was a success...in that manner alone.

Viewers of the viral TikTok—which has already been seen a whopping 50 million times—were all kinds of distraught.
Many agreed that being barefoot may have its benefits, but public places may not be the safest arenas for testing.

Others weren't as kind, though, and pointed out all the issues from potential illness to injuries.
To each their own, we guess, but please watch your step!
