A shoe is an item of footwear intended to protect and comfort the human foot while the wearer is doing various activities.
 Shoes are also used as an item of decoration and fashion.
 The design of shoes has varied enormously through time and from culture to culture, with appearance originally being tied to function.
 Additionally, fashion has often dictated many design elements, such as whether shoes have very high heels or flat ones.
 Contemporary footwear in the 2010s varies widely in style, complexity and cost.
 Basic sandals may consist of only a thin sole and simple strap and be sold for a low cost.
 High fashion shoes made by famous designers may be made of expensive materials, use complex construction and sell for hundreds or even thousands of dollars a pair.
 Some shoes are designed for specific purposes, such as boots designed specifically for mountaineering or skiing.
High-heeled footwear (often abbreviated as high heels or simply heels) is footwear that raises the heel of the wearer's foot significantly higher than the toes.
 When both the heel and the toes are raised equal amounts, as in a platform shoe, it is technically not considered to be a high heel; however, there are also high-heeled platform shoes.
 High heels tend to give the aesthetic illusion of longer, more slender legs.
 High heels come in a wide variety of styles, and the heels are found in many different shapes, including stiletto, pump (court shoe), block, tapered, blade, and wedge.
Melvin Kenneth "Mel" Smith (3 December 1952 – 19 July 2013) was an English comedian, writer, film director, producer and actor.
Locomotor effects of shoes are the way in which the physical characteristics or components of shoes influence the locomotion neuromechanics of a person.
 Depending on the characteristics of the shoes, the effects are various, ranging from alteration in balance and posture, muscle activity of different muscles as measured by electromyography (EMG), and the impact force.
 There are many different types of shoes that exist, such as running, walking, loafers, high heels, sandals, slippers, work boots, dress shoes, and many more.
 However, a typical shoe will be composed of an insole, midsole, outsole, and heels, if any.
 In an unshod condition, where one is without any shoes, the locomotor effects are primarily observed in the heel strike patterns and resulting impact forces generated on the ground.
Platform shoes are shoes, boots, or sandals with an obvious thick sole, usually in the range of 3 - .
 Platform shoes may also be high heels, in which case the heel is raised significantly higher than the ball of the foot.
 Extreme heights, of both the sole and heel, can be found in fetish footwear such as ballet boots, where the sole may be up to 20 cm high, and the heels up to 40 cm and more.
 The sole of a platform shoe can have a continuous uniform thickness, have a wedge, a separate block or a stiletto heel.
 Apart from the extreme forms of fetish shoes (which are first and foremost not intended for walking in), walking in platform shoes can be cumbersome and clumsy.
 Raising the ankle increases the risk of a sprained ankle.
Nicole Lamarche is an ordained minister in the United Church of Christ and a beauty pageant titleholder who was crowned Miss California 2003.
 Competing in the Miss San Francisco Pageant in 2003, she won the title and went on to win Miss California 2003 and became the Fourth runner up to the title of Miss America 2004.
 She was the swimsuit winner and although she decided to wear high heels during this segment of the competition it was erroneously reported by an espn.com columnist that she competed barefoot.
 This is most likely due to pictures of her competing in the Miss California swimsuit segment not wearing high heels, as the contestants normally do.
 She earned over $26,000 in scholarships.

Katsu Kokichi (勝 小吉 , 1802 – 1850) was born Otani Kokichi in Edo.
 He was a low-ranking samurai who was adopted by the Katsu family in order to marry the only Katsu daughter, Nobuko.
 Kokichi's father, Otani Heizo, was a minor official in the shogunate.
 His half brother, Otani Hikoshiro, was twenty-five years older than Kokichi.
 After their father's retirement as family head, Hikoshiro became responsible for all the family; he was a noted calligrapher and Confucian scholar and was twice distinguished as district administrator within the shogun's domain.
 By contrast, Katsu Kokichi led a life of idleness, never achieving an official post and supplementing his small (41 koku) income by dealing in swords, among other things.
 The other things, contrary to samurai-class ideals, included acting as a security guard and lending money at high interest.
 When Kokichi's son Rintaro (later to become the famous naval commander Katsu Kaishū) was fifteen, Kokichi retired as family head, passing on that duty to young Rintaro.
 During his last days, Kokichi wrote an autobiography (one of the few surviving from pre-Meiji Japan) titled "Musui Dokugen" ("Musui's Story"), narrating his life and adventures in a style much like that of the picaresque novel.
 This book is an excellent description of low life in Edo during the late Tokugawa shogunate.
 Katsu Kokichi died in Edo in 1850, three years before Commodore Matthew C. Perry reached Japan.
 The autobiography has been translated into English by Teruko Craig, under the title "Musui's Story: The Autobiography of a Tokugawa Samurai."
