Introduction of Cloth Shoes

Bu shoes, as the name suggests, are shoes made of cloth. Cloth shoes, in China, have a long history of more than 3,000 years. According to the evidence, the earliest handmade cloth shoes are those worn by the kneeling statues of Western Zhou warriors unearthed in Houma, Shanxi Province. 2009, "Thousand-layer bottom handmade cloth shoes production technology" was listed on the "National Intangible Cultural Heritage" list by the Ministry of Culture, thus protecting this ancient handicraft technology. Nowadays, cloth shoes are becoming the representative of "Chinese shoes" and returning to the daily life of every Chinese.
