While you start with a pair of shoes, you don't need to stick with them throughout the game. There are several methods to acquire new shoes. You can find them in chests or loot them from poachers and other human enemies. For a more lawful approach, purchasing shoes is also an option.
Tailors, like the one in Troskowitz, sell shoes, though they typically don't boast impressive stats. For better quality, seek out a cobbler. You can find a cobbler in Trosky, marked on the map by three red pieces in a circle, as shown below.

When you speak with a cobbler, such as Cobbler Matthew, you'll find a variety of items for sale, including shoes and horse gear. You can also purchase materials, Blacksmith's Kits, and Cobbler's Kits from them.

Repairing your shoes in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2* offers multiple options. You can have them fixed by cobblers or blacksmiths by selecting the repair option during your conversation with them. This brings up a menu where you can choose which items to repair and view the associated costs. These costs can be reduced if you invest in the Craftsmanship skill, which offers percentage discounts on NPC repairs for all gear, including shoes and armor.
Alternatively, you can repair your shoes yourself, though this depends on your Craftsmanship level. If your skill isn't high enough, you won't be able to repair your own shoes or other equipment. To repair your own shoes, you'll need a Cobbler's Kit.
Cobbler's Kits are available from various vendors, including cobblers and blacksmiths, and can also be found in chests or by looting NPCs. To use a Cobbler's Kit, navigate to your inventory, select the kit, and press the interact button ("E" on PC). This opens a menu displaying damaged items that can be repaired with the kit. If an item appears faded, your skill level is insufficient to repair it. Otherwise, select the items you wish to repair and press the interact button again to complete the repair.
This guide covers how to get and repair shoes in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*. For repairing other gear, use the Blacksmith's Kit in a similar manner. It's always beneficial to keep your gear in good condition, so don't hesitate to seek out a vendor for repairs when needed.
