What does a man’s shoes say about his relationship potential?
YOU meet him for the first time. You look in his handsome face, then gaze into his big, brown eyes and then you begin to work your way down. Clean teeth. Check. Wide shoulders. Check. Nice, clean fingernails. Check. Roughly size-12 feet. Check. He’ll do.
The shoes on a man’s feet is one of the most worn pieces from his wardrobe and yet it can tell so much about him. Lace-ups or loafers, trainers or boots, dress shoes or Brogues, a man’s shoes reveals his taste — whether he is high maintenance, what he values — essentially, his masculinity can be conveyed by his footwear.
Below women tell what they read in a man’s shoes.
Nia, 39:
A shine pair of leather shoes can tell a lot about a man. A husband is what most women want and if he is a keeper you’ll know just from his shoes alone.
Diana, 27:
Growing up, I used to hear people say that you could tell a man’s size by how big his feet were. I don’t know how true that is, but from my experience, nothing nuh go so.
Caroline, 27:
I’ll take a man with a shine pair of shoes any day. To me it says a lot about the value he places on personal appearance.
Faith, 30:
I like seeing men in the morning in their sneakers; to me it shows that you’re health conscious and athletic, which are great character traits to have in a potential partner.
Paige, 26:
Brands are my thing. Timberland, Clarks, Kickers, Air Jordans, Converse, Hush Puppies, you wear it, I like it. I mean a man who is willing to spend and buy brand for himself more than likely will spend and buy brand for his woman. Chi ching!
Kiara, 29:
Usually when you look at a man’s shoes you can see where he has been. A guy who has been on the construction site all day will have a lot of mud on his shoes.
Sabrina, 32:
Lazy is the only word I can use to describe a grown man wearing a pair of flip flops in the middle of the day. Simply unacceptable. Worst, with socks. Dude, seriously? Don’t even get me started on Crocs. To hell with comfort, you’re a grown ass man, a cruff even.
Audrey, 35:
A man in a designer pair of dress shoes with a matching suit, someone call the fire truck ’cause this man is on fire. Yeah man, him sex appeal tun up! Surely this man appreciates the finer things in life, me included.
Margaret, 38:
I like a man who spends time to clean his own shoes. To me that is a respectable man. It shows that he will spend time with you as well to build on your relationship.
