There are a lot of weird things going on with the Spa Day update. The main thing being that Sims won't take off their shoes while doing activities involving feet, such as yoga routines or even foot massages. It looks so bizarre seeing a Sim getting their foot kneaded with shoes still on or getting their toenails painted with their shoes on. I've noticed that during a mood change (Sims portrait going from one mood to another) the shoes disappear for a brief moment before returning.

@MintyFreshSims For me, some sims seem to put on socks for yoga and meditation, even if their outfit doesn't have any socks. And, yeah, that's still with shoes on (unless I have the "no shoes" sign from Snowy Escape).

Over the years, Yoga practices have incorporated a number of equipment choices such as super comfy and hypoallergenic mats, yoga socks, sweat-proof technology clothing and towels, you name it… but what is never OK is practicing Yoga with shoes on. Sims should no longer be practicing Yoga with shoes on, as if.

Fixed in Patch 1.81.72/1.49
