President Joe Biden’s footwear became the subject of media coverage recently, as the President was spotted wearing an unusual pair of ‘lifestyle’ sneakers while leaving the White House just days ago.
The new shoes, which are far different than the usual dress shoes worn by the President, reportedly will prevent him from falling, as well as providing additional comfort and support.
The news of Biden’s change in footwear immediately drew harsh criticism online, with users alleging that the President is being forced to wear the shoes because of his past issues with falling.
The President took a tremendous fall at the Air Force Academy last year, as participants in the ceremony on stage rushed to pull him from the ground. The clip has garnered millions of views since it was originally uploaded.
Inside Edition aired a report on Biden’s new shoes, which are reportedly made by ‘Hoka.’ A reporter even displayed a pair of the kicks, calling them the ‘Joe Biden sneakers.’ See a clip of that report included below,

Recent polls show the President trailing former President Donald Trump in nearly every swing state heading into the 2024 Election. Even though Robert F. Kennedy Jr. pulls a disproportionate amount of votes from the former President, Biden is still struggling. He trails Trump in Nevada, Arizona, Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and Georgia.
In Michigan, Biden just had his Democratic Primary, in which over 100,000 Michigan Democrats voted ‘uncommitted’ instead of for Biden as a protest to his Administration’s handling of the Israel-Hamas conflict.
Biden’s health has become a main topic of discussion throughout the country, as Americans are beginning to question whether or not President Biden is capable of performing the duties of the highest office in the land. A recent poll found that concerns about Biden’s health are amongst the top concerns of all voters heading into 2024.
As the election nears, speculation continues to grow that President Biden may not be the nominee for the Democratic Party, as many have speculated that he may be replaced by the likes of California Governor Gavin Newsom, or perhaps even former First Lady Michelle Obama.
