High heels weren’t always a girl thing. In the fifteen-hundreds, the riding shoes of French noblemen were fitted with raised heels so that their feet stayed put in the stirrups. Over the next few decades, heels inched higher on dress shoes, particularly among men of privilege. – Patricia Marx
If I’m not barefoot, you’ll probably find me with a pair of New Balance on. And I’m not one of those hipster-jump-on-the-band-wagon-ironically-cool NB fans. I’ve been rocking those kicks since they were true nerd shoes. Since the ’80s, yo! Word. – Reid Scott
My primary school teacher once poured a bottle of curdled school milk forcefully down my throat. Then I threw it up all over her suede shoes. I’d rather have drunk from the spittoon in Barney’s barber shop. – Paul O’Grady

I never really stop and think about should I put my hat on this way or that, not thinking that little JoJo down the street would be copying that. I’m more conscious about it now and tell the kids that it’s not about the shoes or what kind of shoes… it’s all about the dance. – Savion Glover
