went outside barefooted vs went outside barefoot

Both phrases are correct, but 'went outside barefoot' is more commonly used in English. 'Barefoot' is an adjective that describes the state of not wearing any shoes or socks, so it doesn't need the '-ed' ending. 'Barefooted' is less common and may sound a bit more formal or old-fashioned.
