Shoe Swap
Just earlier tonight, I was at a martial arts dojo. Per Japanese customs, shoes must be removed upon entry. A girl who was interested in what the dojo had to offer was also there.
By the time everybody had to leave, she mistakenly puts on my shoes, a beautiful pair of Bass Parker buckle loafers...
Here is more or less how the exchange went:
Me - You putting on my shoes!
Her (after a moment) - Your shoes look so much like mine!
Mistake: I don't remember her name. If she comes by, I'll make sure to remember...
Note: The Bass Parker shoes are now discontinued. The only shoe from the same family is the Bass Walton.

Bare Feet Impressions on Ebay
I recently bought a pair of shoes on ebay, where you can find some fine collectibles from shoe brands and series that have been discontinued, such as the Italian-made Bragano from Cole Haan. Here is what I found while browsing some Cole Haan collections:
In this particular setup, the seller is wearing the shoes barefoot, no pants, and seems to be sitting on the carpet or so. Playing with the shoes is cool with me but may trigger unpredictable reactions among different people.
The bottom line is that in a sales context, I would stay away from the messy plays and bare feet.
