Describing the sole of the foot

[hylas_]

Help me out here, fellow literotica writers. How do I describe the texture of the skin on the sole of a foot? How does it feel? What is it like? What can I compare it to?

I'm talking adjectives, or more elaborate descriptions.

All I can come up with is “leathery”, but that sounds kinda negative.
I'm looking for neutral or positive descriptions.

Leathery? A woman's foot is never leathery. Smooth, supple, soft as a rose petal. But never leathery.

Now a man's foot...tough, smelly, scales of dead skin sloughing off and leathery.

Speaking as a now retired reflexologist, firm, strong, tough, solid, thick, pliable, resistant, textured, soft, if I think of some more I will pop back. Hope that helps.

All of those are good.
If you're having your male character rubbing lotion into your female's character feet, then you can add smooth to the list once he's done.

Always gave a final massage with peppermint lotion to both men and women. Oily might be a better description!

Oily! That's the other adjective I couldn't think of after applying lotion.

Delicate, sensitive. Erogenous.

For a man? A well-worn map.

Heh, "well-worn map," I like that one.
"tough" is a good one, too. Simple, but good.
Thanks, everybody so far! I felt a bit stuck there, but I think the thoughts are loosening up a bit again.
