It is important to clarify that no one is directly blaming the president’s shoes for the fall. However, online speculation has emerged questioning why he fell despite wearing shoes intended to enhance stability.
An interesting observation arises when examining the soles of the shoes. They featured rubber soles with a distinct grip pattern and a horseshoe-shaped heel, setting them apart from regular dress shoes with flat bottoms. These shoes seem to have been designed to aid individuals who struggle with balance, such as an elderly person navigating challenging terrain.

Notably, these heels bear a resemblance to those worn by the late Michael Jackson to maintain balance during intricate dance routines. While they appeared to defy gravity for the King of Pop, they did not prevent the President of the United States from encountering a sandbag.
