My gym expressly forbids barefoot climbing. Probably for the possibility that a barefoot climber might have athlete's foot or some other type of problem that could be conveyed to other climbers who are using their hands.
And, frankly, the bare foot unsupported by a climbing shoe has a much more difficult time with the little holds one finds on a gym wall.
