Shoe fetish
Shoe fetish is a sexual attraction to shoes or other footwear. The appeal might be the shape, material, smell or seeing someone wearing a particular pair. High heels, boots, trainers and formal shoes can all feature.

What's the Attraction?
The Details Count. Someone who likes stilettos may not be interested in trainers, while a sneaker fetish will prefer worn sports shoes. Leather, shiny finishes, straps and the sound of heels can be part of the appeal.
For some the shoes complete an outfit with stockings or lingerie. Others are about the shoes themselves, whether they're worn or not.
Shoe Fetish versus Foot Fetish
A foot fetish centres on feet; a shoe fetish centres on footwear. They can overlap, but liking shoes does not automatically mean liking bare feet.
Interest in worn footwear may also overlap with scent fetishism. The attraction can involve the material's smell, the wearer's scent or a personal association with that person.
Shoes and Domination
Boots and heels can feature in domination, submission and roleplay. Shoe worship may involve agreed attention to a partner's footwear, but not every shoe fetish involves BDSM or humiliation.
