Footwear
Shoes
noun
Remember how 履く is "to put on shoes" and 物 means "thing"? Well, combine them and you have a word for things you put on your feet — footwear or shoes, in other words.
You might know 履く is used for lots of different clothes worn below the waist, but be careful: 履き物 only refers to footwear and shoes.
This uses kun'yomi readings you learned with the vocab words 履く and 物. If you can remember those you'll be good to go.
