I try to avoid buying shoes made of leather, or pillows stuffed with feathers, etc. I own one leather belt that I inherited, but I hardly ever wear it.
Most tennis shoes today are a knitted “sock” glued to a plastic foam sole. Dress shoes made of man-made materials can be found at places like Target. So it’s gotten easier to buy shoes.
Thanks for sharing! Wish there was a way to maintain our own shoes.
