Is shoes off at airport getting less popular?
When was the last time you were asked to remove normal trainers when travelling in Europe? Hasn't happened in years, boots is understandable but simple sneakers?
My shoes always set off the alarm and they swab my hands for explosives traces. I must have explosive feet.
Living in Canada, the only time I have to remove my shoes at the airport is when flying to a US destination. If I'm flying domestically within Canada or other international destinations, I can often keep my shoes on while going through security.

Bad guys will utilize this prospect to hide things in foot wear…
