According to our historical records, the earliest shoes actually appeared in Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties, and because China was in a slave society at that time, shoes were divided into two grades. Generally speaking, the shoes worn by slave owners are basically made of leather or silk, which are soft and comfortable to wear, while the choice of slaves is basically made of rough hemp bark, even after being pressed into cakes with licorice.

Later, during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Zhao Haoqi Wuling promoted the reform of shoe leather at that time. He integrated the shoes of Han people into the shoes of northern nomads, and made their booties into the style of booties that we often see in ancient TV dramas. This style of leather boots has been popular in China for thousands of years, and it was not until the Qing Dynasty that another kind of boots widely popular among the people appeared.

In addition to the appearance of booties during the Warring States Period, our shoes were actually different in the Qin Dynasty, that is, the styles of men's and women's shoes were different at that time. Men's shoes are square and women's shoes are round. After that, clogs, silk thread, shoes and high heels began to appear in Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties. Shoes in Qing dynasty were made of cloth soap, but they also looked like boots.
