She raised her hand. "Well, there's, er... running shoes for sports and stuff. And..." She flipped another page. "And... Ooh, fancy dress shoes. Can people actually walk in them?"

Humming a quiet tune, Evelyn read the rest of the page before raising her hand. "Some of them are athletic shoes, winter boots, sandals, and dress shoes, Professor." she said, putting her hand down as she spoke and then continuing to look through the books. 'Rain boots? Why don't they just cast a spell so water doesn't...oh right. Muggles.'

"Well, for sports...they use tennis shoes, sneakers...and when going to work, most Muggles use this leather shoes, and women wear this shoes that make them look talller, they're called heels, I think..." He said.

Of course, he remembered the boots for cowboys and cowgirls, sometimes made of animal skin. Ouch...

"Of course, the type of footwear muggles wear also depends on the territory they live in. In some places, such as the subcontinent, there are beautiful, local types such as the Khussa and the Kolapuri."

He loved the Kolapuri to bits!

It is made by really famous fashion designers around the globe and they sold it to people on a very expensive price. An example of a signature shoes Prada. I saw Professor Bunzy wearing one. Mmmyeah. That's all." answered Cedric, wondering how silly he looks in front of the class.

Well, he gave the credits of his answer to Professor Bunbury because of her he had learned that muggles have signature shoes.

But shoooes... Looking down at her own, she smiled, they were her favorite, bought in Sweden last summer. Though, she did need a new pair.

Just as she was looking down over the edge of the desk, she noticed a pair of SHOES that had appeared suddenly. Her brow furrowed clearly noticing they had not moved yet. Looking up, the boy she had been seeing skipping in was before her. Oh no, had he seen me watching him?

And then he spoke. And Miranda gaped a little. She just had to look around and behind her. For all she knew, the boy was talking to someone else. But he was talking to her and a big smile spread on her lips as she figured that out. "Oh, yeah, s-sure!" Miranda watched him as he talked again. "Nice to meet you Blake, I'm Miranda." her cheeks puffed with the smile and she, ofcourse, waved a little. Reflex. He seemed really nice.

Type of shoes? Gosh, there were so many!
Miranda raised her arm to anwser. ""Sir, there are Dutch clogs you can wear...They are made of wood. Why clogs? They were funny.

Sighing, the sixth year put down her reading materials - well, so to speak - and opened her mouth to start answering...

... And closed it right back up again when Celandine began listing all types of footwear known to mankind. Rachel simply stared at the younger girl as she talked and talked and talked. Being a Ravenclaw, Rachel could understand this sort of behaviour but, er, yeah. It was a TAD excessive.

"Erm, thigh-high boots?" It was the first thing that came to mind.

Maybe because she had mentioned them.

"They're lovely," he said with a nod, his tones low. For now, he was happy that he was in this class, and that she was with him. He raised his hand again. "There are sneakers too, aren't there, sir?" he as much asked as stated, as he lowered his arm and fell silent once more.

"Which one is your favourite?" she asked in low voice, smiled at him, without disturbing the class. She could be calm but since It was Fyo who was sitting next to her, it was impossible to her tobe quiet.

Lion Power..hehe..

She flipped through the catalogue and raised her hand naturally, "There is a type called Indian Jooties sir," she said, smiled.
Antonio listened carefully to the various responses. "Excellent!", he said. "Four points for the first answer and one point to each of the rest of you. Now, can any of you tell me why we wear shoes in the first place, rather than just walking around barefoot? That's what animals do, after all."
