Most people have never had to go to a shoe store barefoot, yet we all had to get our first pair somehow. amirite?

Fun fact, most babies are born barefoot. The ones that grow up to wear shoes are usually given their first pair before they can even walk.

I just wonder how many generations of grand parents you have to go back before somebody didn't have their first pair given to them.

My grandpa got his first "store bought" shoes at 14. Before that his mom would make him and his 6 siblings sheepskin shoes.

Imagine being confused by the fact that adults can buy shoes for babies.

But the parent had to get their shoes somehow as well, the same applies to their parents and then to the parents of their parents... Down the line there is someone who was barefoot and put on shoes who started it all.

Wtf, how old are you lol. There are places where there's extreme poverty and their entire family tree can't afford shoes even today.

Most people's first pair of shoes are put on by another person.

How many generations do you think you have to go back before somebody's parents didn't give them any shoes?

by Anonymous 1 year ago

That's true. Someone, somewhere wore the first shoes. Or was the first baby to be have shoes put on and thus starting the chain

by Anonymous 1 year ago

Right! And every individual has their own "number" of generations you have to go back to find that person.

It's a referral system, most people get their first shoes by someone who already has shoes.

My parents bought them for me when I was a baby because when I was born I didn't have any.

Damn, you weren't born with shoes? L

by Anonymous 1 year ago

No. They felt I didn't deserve a pair of shoes until I could demonstrate my ability to walk in front of them. I imagine. I don't remember the event myself, and my parents haven't given me a history of my shoes.

...yeah an adult puts on a pair of shoes and goes to buy them for you. Not sure how that's a "miniature epiphany".

by Anonymous 1 year ago

But how did that adult get his first pair of shoes?

…an adult put on a pair of shoes and went to buy them for him.

by Anonymous 1 year ago

and how did THAT adult get their first pair of shoes? Surely if you go back far enough, there is a generation of folks who were barefooted and had to acquire their first pair themselves.

by Anonymous 1 year ago

Their parents made them. Was before shoe stores existed...

by Anonymous 1 year ago

Surely there was a time we were barefooted and someone came up with the idea and we all started acquiring or making shoes.

I broke my sandals in another country and had to attend a store of shoes in just my piggly wigglies.

Once In went to a shoestore wearing flip flops because I didn't want to buy shoes, and after about 2~3 years my pair gave up on me. My mon made me go to the store wearing flip flops, but I though about going barefoot. And yes, I was (am?) a weird person.
