In 2008, roughly 45 million travelers passed through
security at Atlanta's International airport, followed closely
behind by about 35 million at Chicago's O'Hare.
At Denver's International Airport,
2008 statistics showed
an average of 2,135,222 people passing through security
every month. This means over 71,000 travelers walked
shoeless through security each day.
The Secure Step program
provides travelers with a free
alternative to having to walk barefoot or in socks with
71,000 other people.

From the public TSA Blog on Security Checkpoints
"I am involved in public health. A few years back I
got a nasty plantar wart
from walking barefoot in my upscale health club.
Very painful to have treated.
The idea of getting another from the
barefoot thing at the airport - well it
boggles the mind. I cannot believe
we have to place our bare feet down
where all manner of vermin have
been before. Mind you I am a health care
professional.
I want security, but if the liquids have to be in plastic bags, then
bloody well
so should our feet be covered."
