Shoes are originated
from the cold or hot weather.
Shoes are designed to protect
our feet under the environment
that they easily suffer
from frostbite and burn.
At first, they were made
by wrapping the feet with the bark
of a tree, grass, leather
and hair of animals
then developed to have a certain
form as our feet.
After that, in the 11th century,
shoes are developed
with many variations.
Sewing machines and rubber were
used for shoes
and they developed dynamically.

Shoes have many funny stories
as well as their various shapes.
The shoes of Cinderella
in the fairytale
were white-haired at first,
however, due to the wrong
translation to the US,
they became glass shoes.
The ‘sabo’ from ‘‘sabotage’ meant
the wooden shoes
that the working class wore before.
Mounted troops were high heels,
but Louis XIV wore them
to overcome his short height
and became very popular.
They were unisexual unlike now.

Now, the shoes are developing
with modern technologies
with ergonomics to our body.
With this trend,
customized shoes that are called
bespoke service are getting popular.
Also, the development
of various materials
and technologies is making
dream come true for the shoes
existing in our dream from movies.
