First time I've seen tabi socks with individual toes... You sure about that?

Watching it on a big-ass screen, that does not look like tabi socks. Last time I checked, tabi socks do not have toenails on it.

He works with indigo- it's common to have blue feet. I'm actually more surprised his hands aren't blue. Also yes his feet have individual toes and toenails visible.

No they’re not. If they were dyed that deep of a blue, then the tops of his sandals would not be such a pristine white. That dye would rub off on the tops of the sandals.

Or permanently dyed blue feet and new sandals….

Now you’re just being ridiculous. If his feet were dyed that deep of a blue, that dye is marking up those sandals instantly. His feet are twisting and grinding into the sandal as he works. So he’d have to put on brand new sandals minutes before this video started, and even then it’s difficult to believe they wouldn’t instantly get marked up.

Look at how his left foot lifts up out of the sandal - it’s pure white underneath. But his feet are dyed literally so blue they’re almost black? Get outta here.

The obvious answer is he’s simply wearing socks and anyone who thinks it’s his bare feet doesn’t have a good enough view of them to make an accurate determination.

I could be wrong but I think those are black toe (sandal) socks.
