SHOES!!!

in hive-175065 •  3 years ago 

Hello Steemians. Hope you are well.

Shoes are amazing, they protect our feet from harm from different things like stones, thorns etc. Much as they do protect us, once I was putting my shoes that are crocs and a thorn actually passed through. Luckily the sole was so thick in that it stopped after it had pierced my sole a little bit. We had to stop for me to pull out the thorn which was not easy.

There are many different types of shoes for men and for women alike. Men have sneakers, moccasins, sandals, boots among others. Mens’ shoes are notorious for being expensive. Women definitely have a larger variety for various occasions. Women have heels and they are of various heights like 3, 4,6 or 8 inches. Heels are of different types like block heels, stiletto heels among others.

Heels generally make women look more feminine as they make their gait graceful. They also make women definitely look taller and very elegant. Sneakers are also really lovely as they can be worn for particular activities like for exercises but can also be worn generally to make looks casual. They can be worn with pants, dresses and even skirts. Men can also put on sneakers generally with both formal and casual outfits.

Pumps are also very essential as they make one look official even when not in heels. These also come in handy where one is tired of putting on their heels. One can also carry flats in form of flip flops or any other form as they maybe more portable than pumps. Boots are also necessary especially where people live in countries with seasons like winter. These helps their feet keep warm.

Boots can also be used to make a fashion statement as there are different types like thigh or knee high boots that just make one stand out. The boots maybe flat or may have heels either stiletto or block thus making the look more eye catching. Flats whether closed or open enable one’s feet to breathe. They are also very simple and easy to wear as one can easily throw them on as they are stepping out of the house to go the grocery store etc.

Heels are most definitely kept for occasions where one wants to be a little bit extra. It may be a normal day, parties like birthdays, weddings or any other occasion. Definitely shoes have graduated from just being a form of necessity to protect our feet and have expanded to key elements of fashion as they can be used to express different stories or creativity.

This point is expressed so well in the book Shoe Dog by Phil Knight where he had a vision where people could put on sneakers for normal every day activities and not just sports and that was the whole intention as he was growing his business and his dream has come to a reality as people treat sneakers like any other type of shoe that can be worn any day and not for a particular purpose.
