** In ''Film/JackieBrown'', there is a close-up of the feet of Melanie, played by BridgetFonda. In the same film, there's an extended scene in which Pam Grier, as Jackie, wears only a fluffy white bathrobe. Most other directors would use this to show some cleavage or bare thigh. Not QT. Jackie's robe is bundled up to the neck and so bulky that it gives no hint of her shape, pulling attention to her bare feet.

** The second season incarnation of [[ComicBook/TeenTitans Beast Boy]] is barefoot in his primate form. Justified in that 1. He can use his feet to climb and grip things, and 2. He's an animal shapeshifter that transforms into many different creatures; therefore making shoes impractical.

* In the ''ThreeByThreeEyes'' manga, there are plenty eye-catch panels between the chapters with Pai/Parvarti (or other female characters) in various state of (un)dress, and often barefoot. Also, there is the whole Amalah story arc, where Yakumo is helped by the "Level C" warrior girls, who wear {{Stripperific}} costumes with no shoes. It is even mentioned that, unlike the "divine rank" Level B, the Level C are not allowed to wear any footwear.

* Have we forgotten the scene in the first ''CharliesAngels'' [[TheMovie film]] where Alex (Lucy Liu) pretends to be a masseuse to get info out of the bad guy? She starts by walking on his back, but by the end of it she's crushing his face with her bare feet. And yes, we get plenty of close-ups of it all.

* ''TheInheritanceCycle'' has a couple of Foot Focus scenes. There's a mild one where Eragon notices that Arya's feet are bare, but also one where Eragon concentrates on an image of his big toe to deter enemies trying to read his mind (a form of PsychicStatic), and also him wiggling his toes to show a dwarf that humans really do have five toes per foot, not seven.
