If it’s a post made from the states, for some reason there are places in the states where it is normal to wear shoes in the house. I’m gonna assume it probably somewhat correlates to a similar region as the ones where house scorpions are a possible pest.
I wear sandals or slippers indoors because I hate the texture of my carpet and can’t afford to replace it. I hate how socks feel as well, so those don’t get worn unless I’m going somewhere.
People in the US generally wear shoes in their homes. When they come home, they might take off their shoes if the shoes are uncomfortable, in the same way they might remove a bra or a tie, but it’s more for reasons of comfort rather than hygiene or preserving flooring. Guests are usually allowed to keep their shoes on.
In households of people who have recently immigrated, it’s different. It can also be a thing with people whose homes have a high aesthetic value. In general though, in the US it’s expected that the host requests that the guests remove their shoes, rather than it being a presumption.
Do people not walk barefoot in their homes?
At home? But that’s where I keep all my rusty nails.

I’m in the U.S. Nobody wears shoes on my carpet. Nobody.
