About Shoes: Can you cook a pair of Converse in the oven?
Manage episode 448704944 series 3345706
Today we are joined by Charlotte, who is a footwear technologist (no, we didn't know that was a job either)! She is responsible for making sure our shoes are safe, comfortable and that they don't fall apart while we're wearing them. This episode is full of random facts and philosophical questions about footwear, such as 'why do Converse get cooked in an oven', 'why are they called sneakers' and 'do slippers count as shoes'? Joe also talks us through his ridiculous number of shoes... can you guess how many pairs he has? You won't believe it.
