The 69-year-old Englishman Pete Mckenzie, former telephone exchange engineer proudly proclaimed one day, after throwing away his shoes. And he has held true to his promise for the past 50 years, renouncing footwear even on important occasions like his wedding.
Pete's bizarre resolution has made him something of a legend in Birmingham's pubs, where he is popular as 'Pete the Feet'. He spends a major chunk of his day at these pubs, hawking homemade merchandise like stickers and cigarette lighter covers branded with his personal logo of two bare feet.
