Shoe Shame

Have you ever been shoe shamed? You know, judged for your love or purchase of shoes?

This is real


It can happen in a couple of formats.

The old school shame...you go to a brick and mortar store, and buy a bunch of shoes resulting in toting multiple bags. Yes, you try and hide one bag into another to lessen the optics of the financial purchase you have just made - but shoe boxes are not easy to hide..




And, the new school shame...UPS boxes in the mail.

The UPS/Fed Ex guy/gal is usually not as judgmental, as this online purchasing contributes to the lifeblood of their company.

But, why the need for judgement while buying shoes? Better yet, why do we, as shoe buyers allow for shoe shame? Everyone has vices...do glorious leather bound shoes that hug your arch need be the scapegoat?

Obviously, the Shoe Investment Calculator (SIC) can be a good method to perform a non-biased investment calculation. So, next blog...I deliver the tool to judge the shoe purchases you make. (Note, this type of judgement is ok).


So, when the question is posed, "did you really pay that much for a pair of shoes?"...you can answer about the cost per wear, the SIC score, the annual wear per year, etc. Or, you can grab your bags, boxes and shoes, and know the following:

1. Shoes are worn on your feet. That means, they get you places, help you climb higher and protect your feet as you progress forward. So, when deciding on an investment for your body, I choose shoes.

More later this week...from the World of Cha Cha Shoes.
