I feel like everyone is reading "leather shoe" and interpreting it as "dress shoe," but tennis shoes/trainers are usually leather, too. Sandals, moccasins, etc.

I feel like everyone is reading "leather shoe" and interpreting it as "dress shoe," but tennis shoes/trainers are usually leather, too. Sandals, moccasins, etc. Leather is a material. My ON running shoes are leather. My legit hiking shoes are leather. So are the kung fu shoes I used twenty years ago to fly through the fucking air with swords.
- topgrain2 4mo agoProbably interpreting it that way because “bad for running” and “needs shoe polish” can’t possible be describing sports shoes with leather components.
- KPGv2 4mo agoRight. I'm taking personal offense to someone using "leather shoes" so inaccurately. :)
- quickthrowman 4mo agoLeather shoes are shoes or boots made of leather, cork, and optionally steel and rubber. They last a really long time. A shoe that has a leather upper and EVA foam makes up the rest of it is not a leather shoe. It’s a shoe with a leather upper.
