Why doesn't Corrin wear any shoes ?

When you are raised as a prince/princess with servants dedicated to educate you and give their lives for you, it makes it hard to believe Corrin doesn't wear any shoes ? Didn't Camilla educate her/him on the dangers of stepping in yard without any shoes ? I suppose the castle is so clean nothing ever gets dirty but I am positive that at some point he had to travel however under assistance : like if Corrin was ever sick he/she would be escorted to a doctor or something.

So yeah, why doesn't he/she wear any shoes ?

I saw a theory once that said that, since Corrin (and Azura) are captives, their lack of shoes represent it since, that's like, a thing in some cultures.

^ This

Another possibility is that, since he was locked up in a fortress that probably had nice, soft carpeted floors, he never had a reason to wear shoes since they're worn to protect the feet.

If I were to guess, given how silly a lot of their appearance options and attack animations are, I'm pretty sure it was a conscious decision to make them stand out somehow and nothing more.

I considered it a step up from awakening,seeing as they didn't have feet(this thread is hilarious in its own way).

That reminds me of all the, "We get it IS, they have feet now", jokes that were made after the design for Corrin was revealed.

I thought the "IS can't draw feet" joke got infinitely funnier when they first drew female Corrin with two left feet and then did the same to Eponine in the Halloween DLC CG art.

Edit: for those who don't know what I'm talking about or need a reminder:

Huh, looks like Eponine had two right feet. Oh well, still funny.

My guess is that Corrin wears no shoes because he expects everyone to kiss his feet. Alternatively he might simply think that the universe won't dare to put sharp objects or other unpleasant things in the way of Corrin-sama. Or maybe he just breaths through his feet, kinda like how female Corrin seems to breath through her butt cheeks.

Kinda like Azura breathes through her left leg or like Camilla breathes through her cleavage then. XD

To clarify: I don't want to mock you. I just want to expand your joke.

Pretty much these.

I might be in the minority, but I thought the lack of shoes pulled the Corrin design together. It reminds me of gymnast, which reflects how flexible they are when they are a Nohr Noble. All that flipping and tihs. And it isn't as if warriors not wearing shoes is unheard of.

Also, hands and feet are pretty damn hard to draw some times. I've been drawing for two thirds of my life and I still make the exact same mistakes when it comes to them. Then again, I'm not that great of an artist though, so there's that.

Sorry I couldn't resist...

But to be serious, while it is indeed odd that Corrin doesn't wear any shoes, I believe it is just a design choice that wasn't given any attention in the story...

Design choice to reflect their draconic heritage and otherworldly powers.

I heard about it when the game was announced and I don't get why they did this because we've had multiple dragon people before but still they wore shoes like you and I. Now maybe when FE had no feet drawn this wasn't considered but heck even the rainbow sage wears shoes since his sprite is from those weird awakening npc priests.

Why do you care?

I don't know, just curious

Just reclass him fam. That'll give him shoes

Fr Fr tho, maybe he just literally doesn't want too, due to what Abvora mentioned

No kidding! I did it the moment I got a heart seal.
