Texture

Shoes have a wide range of variety not only in texture, but in the amount of texture one shoe can have. My little worn down red sneakers were manufactured with many textures, but I found the textures created with wear more interesting. The top image shows how the shoelaces over time have become worn; the threads are starting to break, creating shoelaces that have more "bumps" along the way. Secondly, the bottom image shows the texture of the worn out soles of my shoes. If studied it can be assumed, through the varying textures from the right diamonds with all of the original fibers to the left diamonds worn down to the plastic, that I have a high arch in my foot, which is true. The way I walk and the shape of my foot have been able to create a different set of textures in an area that, when purchased, was uniform. The middle image is the only one that really interested me in the original texture of the shoe. The "canvas" style of sneakers are known, of course, for their canvas texture, displayed in this image.
