Songs about Shoes and Boots
Manage episode 413197730 series 3439797
Lets face it, most of us can't get away with walking very far barefoot. The first shoes emerged in the ice age in 40000bc and were made of bark. By 2023, the footwear industry is estimated to be worth around USD 403.18 billion.
It's hard to avoid footwear when it comes to songs. Red shoes are a particularly popular topic for example, as are celebrations of sneaker brands.
We're talking Shoes and Boots on today's episode.
