is it true the red shoes are made out of baby skin? Why does the Pope wear them? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Papal_shoes

Time to smudge the Vatican.

Red Shoes

I read that one of the origins could be from the prostitutes and transgenders who work the meat packing district. They would walk through the district and get blood on their shoes. Some crafty shoe maker decided to make red shoes so it would hide the blood they walked through.


This might be the origin of hookers and red shoes. If you add "meat packing" and "slaughter house" to that maybe it explains why Tony Podesta's boys and the Pope wear red shoes? They walk amongst the slaughter? I'm sure the meat packing district has gotten rid of it's share of dead bodies since they have all the machinery.


I tried to find the article that talks about the red shoes in the meat packing district but all I could find is articles about transgenders and prostitutes working the district but no shoes.


Except this little blurb:

Now the trademark of these particular shoes is the RED sole. Particularly named Chinese Red. Why red? Because in France, the prostitutes would walk back to their flats in the early morning after a night of selling their wares, through the meat packing district. Thereby getting blood on the bottom of their shoes. A cute little gimmick. Creepy, but kinda cute....
