Has anyone seen RCT trial for shoes on/off vs childhood allergies?

Cant find any good studies

There is excellent data suggesting early peanut exposure strongly prevents peanut allergies later in life (hence giving babies/toddlers bamba)

of course increased exposure between feet and earth during early childhood helps to prevent allergies. a trial might offer support cached in a sea of qualifications, but you don’t need that to know.

I’m not aware of any. But given how thick and relatively impermeable the skin of the feet is (or at least the soles), I’m dubious whether feet would be a significant route for either allergen sensitization or desensitization. As opposed to, say, exposure to soft, thin skin, or via inhalation or ingestion. I’d also want to consider overall risks/benefits. For example, even if shoes-off does reduce lifetime allergy risk, how does that weigh against increased risk of environmental injury (mechanical, chemical, thermal, etc) or greater risk of infection with soil-borne bacteria, fungi, or parasites?
