Unfortunately, this raises more questions than it creates answers. For example, if the people of Japan, an island nation isolated until a series of big wars in the 1600s, were capable of developing long before external contact ethnic footwear in which this problem is not endemic, who else has done so? Is there any other ethnic footwear out there that by design is resistant to this type of attack? I suppose I could begin the list by contributing another solution. Entry 1. The Japanese - Tabi boots. Entry 2. The Dutch - Clogs. These wooden devices couldn't be any less comfortable if one were to hammer nails through the soles before putting them on. And merchants that sell them always try to bundle them as part of a package deal, including a smoke and a pancake. However, they seem immune to the vulnerability. Any other contributions?
