At this time, fashion is excellent for young people, especially among Gen Z. Fashion itself includes appearances that are shown to be self-identity in order to be a good assessment in the eyes of others. One example that is displayed by young people is shoes. In addition to being a protective device for feet from heat and sharp objects that can threaten one's feet, shoes are also a supporting component in terms of lifestyle. At this time, there are many shoe brands made in the country and are well known by the public, including Aero Street, Compas, Sage, and Ventela. Among the three local brands, Ventela has a fairly high interest among young people because Ventela gives a sporty and casual theme to its shoes, which is a plus for them.
