A BARE FOOT "A BARE FOOT" is a interesting culture of Japan. If you grew up in another country and you visit Japan, you would be confused about the rule "taking your shoes off in a room" Even in a Western style hotel and on a airplane, most Japanese take their shoes off. Actually my friends and I take our shoes off in a room that we share to study in my school. Of course, we have sandals to go to a hall and restroom. I come to a school with my own shoes: sneaker or flat shoes, and then change my footwear into sandals. My friend who graduated and work as a doctor said she had understood GETTING SWEATY in her shoes. She took her shoes off during classes always when she was a student, but she can not do so now in a hospital. If you wear shoes all day long, I recommend taking it off in your house, in a classroom and in your own car. You could understand why Japanese like A BARE FOOT lifestyle.

A BARE FOOT

"A BARE FOOT"* is an interesting culture of Japan. If you grew up in another country and you visit Japan, you would be confused about the rule of "taking your shoes off in a room." Even in a Western style hotel and on an airplane, most Japanese take their shoes off.
Actually my friends and I take our shoes off in a room that we share to for studying** in my at school***. Of course, we have sandals to go to a hall and restroom. I come to a school with my own shoes: sneaker or flat shoes, and then change my footwear into sandals****.
My A friend of mine who graduated and now works as a doctor said she had understood experienced GETTING SWEATY in her shoes. She always took her shoes off during classes always when she was a student, but she can not do so now in a hospital.
If you wear shoes all day long, I recommend taking it them***** off in your house, in a classroom and in your own car. You could understand why Japanese like A BARE FOOT a Shoe's-Off lifestyle.

I don't wear shoes in my house. (I change into slippers). And most visitors take off their shoes when they come. But you are correct, it is not the normal custom in the US.

* "A BARE FOOT" - I don't know how you could say this better. And it's not really bare foot, is it? Because in Japan, don't many people wear socks or slippers in the home? Also, "culture" means 文庫 (It can also mean 教養 and even 菌! - as in 真菌やヨーグルト). I think you want to say "custom" or "tradition." Tell me if you like this: "An interesting aspect of Japanese culture is that it is a Shoes-Off society." Or you could say "The custom of removing shoes indoors is an interesting cultural aspect of Japan."

** I changed "to study" (Infinitive form) into "for studying" (gerund form). (Using the Infinitive sounds incomplete, like saying 勉強する instead of 勉強することの。 (I think that's right, but my Japanese isn't very good （笑）).

*** Usually we just say "at school." We would only say "my school" to emphasize that it is "my school and not your school." (Interesting, though . . . when we talk about parents or other relatives, we always say "my . . .")

**** This is fine. But it would be more natural to say "I wear a pair of sneakers or flat shoes to school, and bring along a pair of sandals to change into."

***** Because shoes always come in a set of two, I changed "it" into "them." This is also why we usually say "a pair of . . ."

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions.

A BARE FOOT

"Being BARE FOOT" is an interesting cultural aspect of Japan. If you grew up in another country and you visit Japan, you would be confused about the rule "taking your shoes off in a room" Even in a Western style hotel andor on a airplane, most Japanese take their shoes off.
Actually my friends and I take our shoes off in a room that we share to study in at my school.(Because "we share to study in") Of course, we have sandals to go to ain the hall and to the restroom.("in the hall" because being inside the hall is the emphasis "to the restroom" like "to school" where there's some activity there. "the" because they are general things that one does.) I come to a school with my own shoes: sneakers or flat shoes, and then change my footwear into sandals.
My friend who graduated and works as a doctor said she had understood GETTING SWEATY in her shoes.(I don't know about "understood" here. Maybe, like she "understood" the experience. You could just say "she knew what it was like to get sweaty in her shoes" or "she sometimes felt sweaty in her shoes" "her shoes got sweaty sometimes") She took her shoes off during classes always when she was a student, but she can not do so now in a hospital. (good sentence)
If you wear shoes all day long, I recommend taking itthem off in your house, in a classroom and in your own car. You could understand why Japanese like A BARE FOOT lifestyle. (Or: "Then you might be able to understand why..." or "You can understand why...")
