The biggest pair of shoes was created on the Philippines on October 28, 2002. The length of each boot comprises 5.5 meters, the width is 2.25 meters and the height of each boot is 1.83 meters. A 37.5 meter high giant could have worn this pair of shoes.
The masterpiece of shoe production was carefully thought of and created by a group of 10 masters from the city of MARIKINA – the shoe capital of the Philippines. Today the pair, the price of which is estimated to be of 2 million peso (37411 dollars), is exhibited in the shoe museum of MARIKINA. It took the masters 77 days to create the shoes. The upper part of them was made of 30 square meters of Cordoba leather, and the insole, sole and welt demanded correspondingly 250, 280 and 80 kilos of plant tanned leather. The masters from MARIKINA also needed 225 kilograms of clue and a kilometer of threads! From this huge amount of materials one could have manufactured 250 shoes pairs of average size.
Giant boots have all chances to be included into the Guinness Record Book – for today the pair, that holds the record, is only 3.12 meters long.
