I know it just came out so maybe I'm not setting something correctly, but I have a Taming of the Shoe sign hanging in my house and have it set to "no shoes". Instead of taking their shoes off and either being barefoot or wearing just socks, sims entering my house all changed into women's fashion boots. Although it was funny to see guys wearing them too, I don't think that is how this is supposed to work. Am I missing a setting or something to have them actually be shoeless when they enter with my sign set?

I removed all custom content from the game and with a fresh one started I placed a sim in a lot on Mt Komorebi. At first she walked in (wearing outer wear) and did not remove her shoes, even though once again it was set for no shoes. I toggled it to slippers and she changed into them. Changed outfits and sure enough each one had slippers. I then toggled the setting to no shoes, had her walk outside then back inside and she removed her shoes and walked around barefoot! Did this a few times with various outfits and had her move away from the house and come back and sure enough she removed her shoes every time, so it seems something in the custom content files are causing issues with the removal of the shoes.

@DDWard1972 Is this for NPCs or your own household Sims ?

I haven't had any issues so far personally

Could you try a game repair ?

Since installing Snowy Escape and utilizing the no shoes sign, I have noticed that my sims are either ignoring the command or changing into completely different shoes not assigned to them in CAS. I've noticed my sims changing into heeled shoes, trainers and others.

When I've changed the command to "wear slippers indoors" that works as intended, however the no shoes allowed does not.

I find my sim does take her shoes off. Guests however don't. No different shoes either, just don't take them off. Had 3 guests now, only one obeyed the "no shoes" rule.
I also had my sim be late for work because after her shower she automatically put her shoes on and then she couldn't walk through her house. I can not take her shoes off manually, so I just reset her, made her teleport and get to work that way.

@Lavendela91 That might not necessarily be a bug. There are Sims that are rebellious and don't do it although they should. It's not 100%

Do you have an interaction to scold the ones that don't ? Might only be there for polite Sims, not 100% sure atm.

I would also please like to everyone to keep one thread per issue, even if it's all about shoes

It was both my Sim and npc Sims. I had a welcome wagon and they all changed into heeled boots as soon as they came into the house. Slippers works fine and wearing their shoes, of course, but no shoes makes them change into random shoes when they enter the house.

@DDWard1972 Sounds like something was wrongly assigned.

Can you test a fresh save that never had mods to see if that has the same issue ?

Do you see this in a pre-patch game or new ? In Mt. Komorebi or other world ?

Yep, I was having the same issue. Its not coming from any particular mod but from cc causing an issue. Most likely the labeling of shoes n*de when they shouldn't be( even though some the shoes they are putting on base game or from other packs weird) but from some reason cc causing this and not mods. I'm going go threw all my shoes and uncheck it with sims 4 studio (hopefully it still works with this pack)
UPDATE: I went threw some the shoes that were showing up instead of bare feet/ socks and the aren't labeled n*de when they aren't supposed to so I have no idea what's causing this might take cc shoes out and see if that helps.

I'm having this issue too, after installing Snowy Escape and setting the preference of NO SHOES, all sims will randomly wear either CC shoes or those from the game itself, anything but no shoes. If I select slippers, that works correctly.

I have the most recent patch and I'm playing in Mt Komorebi , tried a new save file, took out my mods leaving only CAS cc in the game and the results are the same as the OP has here. Still wearing shoes, even to bed! I thought maybe it was the sim being a little rebellious but when clicking on her I was given the option to observe the rules and she changed into different shoes, still no socks.

Small update: I took out the CC feet I had installed and it seemed to work, then NPCs came over and, again, random shoes. So, it wasn't the CC feet like I thought.

@LiLiMoh If you remove all your CC and test on a vanilla game (best to try a fresh one as existing saves might already have issues if cc borked the shoes) and see if you have the same issue ?
