Published on January 9, 2020, a post on social media sparked a conversation about the significance of shoes in a woman's life.

According to the post, different types of shoes convey different messages about a woman's character and lifestyle.

High heels, for instance, signify confidence and self-assurance. They show that a woman has her life together, but unfortunately, some women in Nairobi struggle to walk in them.

On the other hand, rubber shoes are comfortable, affordable, and reliable, indicating that a woman has too much on her plate and wants to be comfortable while running errands.

Classy sandals, however, reveal a woman's confidence in flaunting her legs and toes, while wedges suggest that she is playful, daring, and a party person.

Loafers, with their high quality and price tag, convey a sense of class and love for fine things. Floaters or Crocs, often worn by villagers, signify a hustler who is trying to make ends meet.

Lastly, boots show that a woman is adventurous and ready to take on new experiences.
