Fan Casting Earthy Barefoot Character in Sort by Tropes

Characters who walk barefoot are often shown to be close to nature, animals and their surroundings. These characters are sometimes depicted as a Wild Child or Nature Hero living in jungles, forests or in the wild. They tend to be deeply connected to animals (and may even have the ability to talk to them) and plants in general. They tend to be more respectful of the land and the earth. At the very least, they are the Nature Lover.
