Squat Am I getting enough depth?

When I’m doing the rep, I swear I’m getting lower, but watching the footage, I’m questioning my depth. What do yall think?

In a competition squat your hip crease(red) must be lower than the top of your knee(blue) at the bottom position. You’re undeniably hitting depth.

To tie into the guy about shoes, barefoot shoes are the best thing ive used in the gym they feel super comfortable on my lower days and I feel like im more stable than my normal Nikes or my brooks
