What are creepers???
Well, according to the knowledgeable
Wikipedia: "Creepers or brothel creepers are a type of shoe. They found their beginnings in the years following World War II, as soldiers based in the deserts in North Africa wore suede boots with hard-wearing crepe soles because of the climate and environment. Having left the army, many of these ex-soldiers found their way to the nightspots of London wearing the same crepe-soled shoes and these became known as "brothel creepers"."
Nowadays, different interpretations of the creeper shoe have been popping up on street styles and runways alike. Fashion houses like Prada, Moschino, Burberry to name a few, have created renditions of the creeper shoe which have been influencing a huge comeback of the creeper shoe into everyday wear- now even non-Gothic types have been rocking this style of shoe in everyday casual wear to semi formal office outfits.
