[QUAD-L] Shoes vs Footwear

Footwear and shoes will vary among the sexes. You won't see me wearing high heels, thank you. (lol) For a few, footwear is not a major issue, but for many others, it has to be just right. Often, as the day wears on, so may the footwear due to foot swelling or sweating. Hence, it really becomes
