Everything about Footwear totally explained
Footwear consists of
garments worn on the
feet, for
protection against the environment,
hygiene and
adornment. Socks and other
hosiery are worn between the feet and the footwear, except for
sandals and
flip flops (thongs). Footwear is sometimes associated with
fetishism, particularly in some recent
fashions in shoes and boots.
People who practice the profession of
shoemaking are shoemakers, cobblers or
cordwainers.
The oldest known footwear was discovered in
Fort Rock Cave in the
U.S. state of
Oregon;
radiocarbon dating of these
sandals woven from
sagebrush bark indicates an age of least 10,000 years.
