    I think you’re being a little nitpicky. We didn’t evolve to be anything. Evolution is allele frequency over time.

    But in layman’s terms, we evolved to be barefoot because the structure of our feet evolved before shoes were invented and so the most efficient foot shape for walking without shoes was selected for.
