Yes, but not all the way up their legs like in the picture. But def thick and fluffy and they keep it clean.

And maybe they have little foot-combs!

I always wished the Hobbits had more foot- and foot-hair-derived cultural phrases, like the one "may the hair on your toes never fall out!" from The Hobbit.

I think I once read a fic where "tenderfoot" was a big insult for hobbits, because only baby hobbits had soft foot soles, so it meant you were calling someone a crybaby who can't withstand normal activities (like walking barefoot).

nayrt

Yes!! I always wished there was more of this. Tolkien did a lot of really fun stuff with cultures and language in those books, but he could've put in more idiomatic language regarding the various races' non-human features.

I also remember a fic where "stragglefoot" meant a dirty or sleazy person, and...I don't remember if it was the same fic or a different fic, but there was one that had a phrase like "scare the hair off his toes" or something like that.

Maybe they style their foothair and/or put on airs about who has the thickest foothair and having extra-hairy feet is taken to be a sign of virility of something.

/I love this kind of stuff

Maybe the ones with thin foot hair wear foot toupees.

I have a faint memeory that there was something in the LotR books about a hobbit who did comb his foot-hair.

I feel like this rings a bell too and I suspect Bandobras Took, but google isn't helping me out.
