The shoe was actually a by-product of the sandal. Shoes were developed based on the needs of the wearer. Environmental factors in particular effected the development. As you can imagine an Eskimo would not be able to wear sandals, so they developed shoes and then boots to protect their feet from the bitter cold and frostbite which could cause infections in the feet and eventually gangrene, then death.

Shoes have always been a functional piece of clothing. However, some examples of early shoes were more for vanity than purpose. A good example of this can be seen in the cracowes type of shoes which were developed in medieval times, unfortunately due to their long pointed design it could be difficult to walk in them. (If you are watching a movie about medieval times look for the pointed shoes wore by the court jester.) As a result the cracowes type of shoe was soon replaced by the Duckbill type of shoes. Duckbill shoes can be seen in pictures of the first Pilgrims.

The next time you buy a new pair of shoes remember they have a rich history.
