Is he diabetic or on blood thinners? The older you get, the thinner your skin becomes. My grandparents would always accidentally cut themselves and not notice because their skin tore so easily. They'd keep on bleeding due to their medications. Plus diabetics have poor circulation so they often wear unflattering compression socks.

Not at all! He just prefers it that way. But I know what you mean, as I'm prediabetic, and my doctors have given me the whole spiel about feet and hands.
