leather Shoes.
Throughout the centuries, leather has been the primary material for shoes, mainly because it was always available in sufficient quantities. Today, although a variety of materials are used to make footwear, leather is still paramount, for a number of reasons. It can be formed, sewn, and made waterproof without losing its breathability. It is also very robust and offers excellent protection against foot injuries. You will never sweat as much in leather shoes, compared to those made from other materials. While fabric is also breathable, its waterproofing qualities and the level of protection it provides against injuries is significantly inferior to leather. Through these superior properties leather, is still the best material for shoes. Most substitute materials are processed solely for price reasons, A wide variety of leathers are used to make shoe uppers and it's not always easy to clearly differentiate between the types. The most common types of leather are pigmented smooth leather (pigment binder coating on the grain side), aniline leather (open pore grain side leather), waxed or oiled leather, suede and nubuck, The shoe industry is the world's largest user of leathers, manufacturing 14 billion pairs of leather shoes a year. Of these some 11.5 billion are made in Asian factories with 8 billion pairs coming from China alone, making it the biggest producer. By comparison, only 26 million pairs of shoes are produced in Germany and roughly 5 million pairs of shoes are made in the UK.

Sports Shoes.
Athletic footwear has become ubiquitous since the mid-1950s, and it is easy to forget that sport shoes were initially designed for a specific purpose—for functionality, comfort, and to maximize athletic performance. As diverse as traditional footwear itself, athletic shoes fall into the following categories: running/training/walking, court sports, field sports, winter sports, outdoor sports, track and field, and specialty shoes (i.e. gymnastics, weight lifting, water, etc.), production of shoes made athletic footwear readily available to the general public. The first great athletic shoemakers, including Joseph W. Foster for Reebok, the Dassler brothers, Marquis Converse, and Leon Leonwood Bean (L.L. Bean) arose at this time. Increased competition in sports accelerated the quest for developing more comfortable, better-performing, flat-soled shoes,

Sandals
Sandals are an open type of footwear, consisting of a sole held to the wearer's foot by straps going over the instep and, sometimes, around the ankle. Sandals can also have a heel. While the distinction between sandals and other types of footwear can sometimes be blurry , the common understanding is that a sandal leaves all or most of the foot exposed. People may choose to wear sandals for several reasons, among them comfort in warm weather, economy (sandals tend to require less material than shoes and are usually easier to construct), and as a fashion choice, Usually, people wear sandals in warmer climates or during warmer parts of the year in order to keep their feet cool and dry. The risk of developing athlete's foot is lower than with enclosed shoes, and the wearing of sandals may be part of the treatment regimen for such an infection, A sandal may have a sole made from rubber, leather, wood, tatami or rope. It may be held to the foot by a narrow thong that generally passes between the first and second toe, or by a strap or lace, variously called a latchet, sabot strap or sandal, that passes over the arch of the foot or around the ankle. A sandal may or may not have a heel (either low or high) or heel strap

Ladies Footwear
There’s a vast variety of shoe styles for women, each with their own identity and history. Female footwear styles are well known for being desirable and beautiful as well as being functional. The wide array of women's shoe styles can sometimes leave us a little confused as to what's what, and when certain women's shoe types should be worn, Of course, there are certain ladies shoe styles that are more appropriate and practical for different situations, and certain styles of shoes will suit particular situations or outfits more than others, Casual shoes are fairly self-explanatory – these are female shoe types that you wear on a day to day basis. These are usually teamed with womens casual wear for a relaxed look. As some of us do tend to wear heels in the day time as well at the night time, there are also heels which might fall into the category of ‘casual’. Comfier heels that are not too high, or wedges, might fall into this category due to them being far easier and more comfortable to wear.
Check out the most popular casual shoe types below:
1.Wedges-A wedge heel can give an outfit a more polished look without actually having to wear excruciating heels. Wedges are far more comfortable to wear, especially a lower wedge.
2.Ballerinas-Ballerinas are such a versatile shoe that come in every print, colour and pattern imaginable, from classic nude to wild animal prints and bright quirky colours.
3.Lace Ups-Lace up shoes tend to be slightly sturdier and can provide additional support for your feet, as well as providing an adjustable fastening that can be tightened or loosened to suit your feet.
4.Canvas Shoes-Lightweight women’s canvas shoes are slightly sportier looking than ballerina shoes, but they’re an equally great choice for casual wear. They’re comfy, practical and come in every colour and pattern so you can always find a pair that will match your outfit.
5.Flip Flops-Women’s flip flops are generally made from a foam sole, with a plastic toe support in the middle. For a longer lasting style, opt for one made from leather. Very basic styles will have simple plastic straps.
6.Mules-An open backed shoe with a closed front. Ladies mules are suitable for slipping on and off and generally far more casual than closed shoes but give more support than flip flops.
7.Loafers-A casual shoe that generally slips on, with elasticated panels on either sides negating the need for laces or fastenings.
8.Trainers-Women’s trainers are named so because they are designed to be used whilst training – while at the gym, or yoga, as well as for fashion wear.
