Hello. I have a good question. Why does linus wear sandals? I don't think I've ever seen linus wear tennis shoes or boots before. I've always seen him wear socks and sandals or barefoot. Does he not like shoes or something? Does he have a fear of shoes? No hate towards linus but just curious. What ever his preference is I'm cool with it. And don't they live in canada. Isn't canada 2 cold for sandal wear? Idk I haven't ever been to canada. That is all.

Because they're superior.

 

 

They live in vancouver canada, it doesn't get insanely cold there in winter. The average low that it gets to in winter is like 32f. (Though it has gotten colder)

I think it's cos he has some kind of foot problem and wearing sandals and socks eases the pain?

It's the perfect way to keep your feet a bit worm yet if you bump it somewhere you make sure you still FUBAR your toes. Remember what Nicky V says you wanna get your toe cut clean off your foot!

Because the sandals give +15% EXP bonus when paired with socks, that's why LTT is growing so quickly... ???

Vancouver is quite warm most of the year. It doesn't get cold enough to really move away from sandals, especially when worn with socks, especially when you drive.
