Classification Essay

Walking into the store and seeing everything in their perfect place I think, "Wow, this is awesome and the smell is wonderful I could stay here all day and smell these things." You are probably thinking it is something rare that we don't see very often or something that is really fascinating. Well in reality it is only a shoe store, I love to look at all of the new shoes well really, it is the smell that I love the most. I am the rare kind of person that you are going to come by once in your life, I love the smell of new sneakers. I have always had a problem when I have to pick out a new pair of shoes because I want to stay in the store and smell them all day. When having to pick out a new pair of sneakers I have to think to myself if I want sneakers, shoes or sandals. Sometimes I don't care about any of this and I will ask an associate to pick out my shoes that they think best fits me.

I know you are probably thinking about what the differences are between all three types of shoes. Well sneakers, they are laced up can be velcro if you are that lazy. Sneakers are mans best friend when you become old, the only reason why I say this is because old people need the best balance a shoe can give. Sneakers are best for you when you are going to be on your feet for a long period of time. I always wear my sneakers when I am going to work, I work at a retail store and I have to be on my feet for numerous hours at a time. The type of store that I am currently employed at isn't the best store you have ever been to, no organization nothing. What can I say, I work at Marden's Surplus and Salvage, some people think it is the best store ever. I hate it due to the fact that I live there. My work shifts vary from day to day, the normal night shift is usually five hours and all of the other days it is eight hours per shift.

Shoes can be anything as long as they aren’t sneakers or sandals. They are what professionals wear to work. You know what I am talking about you know the penny loafers or when pretty women wear the high healed pointy toe shoes. They can be very casual to the extreme opposite. When ever you see a business man all dressed up in a suit more than likely he is going to be wearing shoes, unless he doesn’t care and wants to be comfortable and is wearing sneakers. Shoes are the most professional looking type of footwear that you can purchase. When I attend a special event (i.e. a wedding, funeral or a graduation) I must wear my shoes, they are what usually makes my outfit perfect. As a matter of fact I wear shoes majority of the time. If I wear a nice pair of pants or a skirt and I wear my sneakers with it, it just doesn't look right.

Sandals, boy do I love sandals! They are the best things ever created; well that is when it comes to foot wear. The best time to wear these suckers is right when the weather is getting good, you don’t usually wear them when there is snow on the ground but right after that you can slip them on. When you wear them you can show people who you are, because this shows your character, you can paint your toes, wear toe rings and if you really want to get fancy you could even wear an ANKLET! I do most of that excluding the whole anklet part because it isn't me. I wear a toe ring all year round, so when I take my footwear off at the end of any day I see my beautiful toe ring. I wear my sandals all summer long, even if they aren't the most appropriate kind that goes along with the outfit I am wearing. Sandals come in so many different styles, they can be strappy, slip on or something that resembles a flip flop, there are so many different styles of sandals you can buy. Even though they don’t have much material to them they seem to be the most expensive footwear, I have yet to figure out why this is true.

Out of all three types of footwear that I have described you should now be able to pick the one you prefer the most. Personally I prefer the sandals, I love to show off my feet even though they may not be the most attractive things in the world but hey we all have to take off our shoes and socks sometime. I still think that the best smelling type of footwear that you can possibly buy would have to be the sneaker.
