Few notes I feel are important to add: from the perspective as someone who sells leather sole shoes. 1. Painted soles are incredibly common, not just unique to designer shoes. You buy an all black dress shoe with leather soles? Wear it out on concrete once and that sole is gonna start developing some grey to tan wear spots. This is normal! Show off those wear patterns with pride, or invest in some sole polish to cover it up! 2. Rubber vs leather soles have completely different traction! Most normal people don’t have to worry about this, but if your buying shoes for dancing a rubber sole is going to make doing pivots, and other more slide-y moves a lil more difficult. Rubber grips - leather doesn’t. 3. Slapping a rubber sole on a pair of Louboutin’s that originally had a leather sole is gonna plummet the value of the shoe. Once you alter the shoe like this, you cannot go back without completely resoleing the thing.

No normal shoe costs $1000. You buy that shoe, the cost the the key feature you pay for. Paint wearing off is the point. It shows you have enough wealth to spend $1000 per week on shoes. Disgusting consumerist attitude, but it's important to understand the psychology behind it.

Leather soles are more desirable than rubber soles, but it really comes down to a personal preference. I have had a couple of shoes with painted leather soles, and it just wears off eventually no matter how good the quality is on the shoe construction. Good shoes are worth it though - if they are actually good, high quality shoes rather than cheap crap with a fancy label. (I know nothing about Louboutin or their quality, so I'm commenting generally rather than on this particular shoemaker). I have several pairs of boots in the $400 - $600 (and a few higher than that...), but I've never had to replace them. Just a resole every so often. A lot of the cheap crap with glued on soles need replaced every year costing more in the long run. I see it more as an investment in quality rather than a status symbol and a luxury item, but it is a privilege that not everyone has to be able to afford that upfront cost of quality material and craftsmanship.
