I agree entirely. Only officers wore footwear on a ship. When you're climbing ratlines or walking out along a yardarm 140 feet above the deck, you want to be barefoot.
They did spread sand around the deck during a fight. It stops you from slipping in the blood. How's that for your historic perspective.
I wear boots when I'm in the grottos, but I sure would like to get some nice pumps for in town.
