I do all my inside workouts barefoot. I have for at least 15 years. I just find it so much easier to move around barefoot.
Outside walking shoes I struggle with. I have wide feet and it's hard to find wide shoes that fit good for my feet. I also believe strongly that not wearing the right shoe adds to injuries. My daughter who is a runner is a testament to that. My son convinced her to change up her shoes and she did for 1 1/2 years and started having knee, hip and lower back pain. She went back to her old brand and most of the pain went away. Also, my PT told me walkers and runners should have 2 pairs of shoes and to alternate them daily and strongly recommends that 500 mile rule. So I keep replacing my shoes hoping I will find that holy grail of a perfect shoe.
