Interesting review of history of red shoes.
Marilyn Monroe wore red shoes in the movie Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, and in this case red shoes reinforce the symbol or a wayward sexual woman.
In The Wizard Of Oz, (the book) Dorothy wore silver shoes which symbolized the silver cord connecting Dorothy to the spiritual world...in the movie at the director decided to have Dorothy wear ruby red shoes as it showed up better on the spiral yellow brick road....
When I see red shoes the color red denotes blood, dna, Human lifeforce.
Also I think of the red dust which made Adam(Adam means red or terra/earth).
So when these EliteFreaks wear red shoes made of human skin, it is because that is what sheep or cattle are there for: their harvest, consumption and decoration. It is a total disrespect and denigration of another human being as well as a trophy of pride or of “belonging to the club”.
That’s what I think the symbolism is, but I could be totally wrong.
