Clothing worn on the feet
Things people wear on their feet, like shoes, boots, or sandals.
Patrón de uso:
footwear for [activity]
Error frecuente:
Learners sometimes treat 'footwear' as a regular countable noun and say *"a footwear" or "two footwears". In standard English, 'footwear' is usually uncountable and used like 'clothing'. Say 'some footwear', 'a piece of footwear', or name the specific item, such as 'a shoe' or 'a pair of boots'. Learners also sometimes use 'shoe' when talking about all types of things worn on the feet; 'footwear' is better when you mean the whole category (shoes, boots, sandals, etc.).
