Looks easy and obvious, but getting the ankle and hip mobility required to squat properly this is quite difficult for us who spend most of their in front of computers. When I started lifting, my squats sucked, and I didn't even realize before I hired a trainer who told me. I had to significantly reduce my squat weight and start from scratch paying attention to doing deep squats with good form.
It took me about a year of consistent mobility training to get the ankle mobility and hip internal rotation required to squat right.
Though if you wear lifting shoes that's a nice shortcut. It can reduce the mobility requirements significantly. I prefer to squat without lifting shoes just because I want to be able to do it naturally, and I don't compete or anything like that.
