JAKARTA - Shoes are not only to support appearance and protect the legs, but can also reveal a person's personality. This was conveyed by a behavioral psychologist, Jo Hemmings.

Quoted from Express UK, Jo Hemmings said the choice of shoes can describe a person's character. Shoe choices can also even be the key to success in job interviews to first dates.

"Sepatu is often a hidden clue that can show who we really are," said Jo Hemmings, quoted on Wednesday, April 9, 2025.

"Realized or not, we tend to make a quick assessment of a person's personality, habits, even the potential for romance is only from his shoes," he added.

Both men and women, shoes are currently an important part of self-image or personal branding. Based on research from Deichmann, the largest shoe retailer in Europe, it takes less than a minute to shape a person's first impression, and shoes are in the spotlight.

Whatever type of shoe you choose, there is always an implied message about your personality, whether it's a striking shield that emits confidence, or comfortable sandals that reflect the soul of the coconut and free, explained Deichmann director Simon Wilson.

Jo Hemmings also explained several types of shoes and the personality of the person wearing them. Like people who like to wear flat sandals are said to have a character of a free soul, do not like to be complicated, and can adjust anywhere.

Then someone who likes to wear boots tends to have a spirit of being adventurous, tough, and reliable under any circumstances. Then for those who like to use classic sneakers are true nostalgia lovers, who have characteristics and are not easy to follow trends.
