A few years back I started to get plantar pain. I was wearing expensive dress shoes that had broken down in the insole area very badly. Not knowing about plantar faciitis, I tried wearing mocassins for a couple of months. At the end, I could barely walk. It was only then that I found out about plantar faciitis and the recommended treatments: use orthotics, stretch appropriately, use ice, but don't go barefoot. It might be OK if you had done that all your life (I don't know) but chances are good that it will exacerbate your condition.
