In the Middle Ages, European aristocrats made a fuss about poulaines, shoes with toes so high that they looked more like a statement of power than shoes.

In Washington, it seems that history is repeating itself, but this time with a slightly more modern style.


Photos of US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Vice President JD Vance have been making the rounds: both are shown wearing sleek black shoes with a large gap between their feet and the back of the shoe. In short, their feet appear to be "floating" inside them.

Wall Street Journal: Trump gives Rubio and JD Vance elegant shoes, but in a size

According to the Wall Street Journal, President Donald Trump has begun giving male officials around him Florsheim Oxford shoes, a presidential gift that doesn't always seem to be the right size.

Men's fashion experts have not spared irony.

"They're clearly too big," said apparel analyst Josh Peskowitz.

According to Vance's account, he and Rubio gave the president their shoe sizes: 13 and 11.5 according to the American system (about 48 and 45.5 in European measures).

Trump, always ready for a comment, is reported to have said: "You can tell a lot about a man by his shoe size."

But shoe experts say that the stated size doesn't tell you one very important thing: whether the shoe fits your foot well.

In this case, according to fashion analysts, the problem isn't philosophical; it's simply practical. As one popular men's style content creator summed it up: "Don't blame the brand. This just seems like a user error."

Finally, amidst all the debates about wars, diplomacy, and global strategy, Washington has found a new topic of discussion: how big the shoes of power should be.
