But if you move barefoot during cold harsh winter or during combat situations, it will just result in an epic fail. You will just get cold feet.
Personally, I think ancient Elves, Dalish Elves and Solas should wear ornate slippers or sandals. That offers some form of protection, still gives the "closer to nature" vibe.
Solas + ornate sandals. We need some artwork.
Well, animals make it through harsh winters with no shoes, ancient humans might have too. Elven toes could be well adapted to withstand the cold somehow.
Even their armour doesn't have boots. Could you imagine fighting against a fully armoured knight, then he steps on your toes?
No wonder the Dales fell.
If they fought mostly long distance, it wouldn't be an issue. I imagine protecting your feet in close combat is probably an essential part of elven martial arts. The enemy would have to look down to step on your toes. Down and away from your hand, which in this moment becomes ready to strike.
