You’d think, but they’ll insist they don’t need to. It’s a display of masculine protection so you should be courteous enough to let him live it, plus usually they won’t want to spend the money bc it seems frivolous to him.You can just go into the next store y’all see and buy her comfortable shoes, happened to me many times while I was traveling. I wouldn’t want him walking around barefoot that’s not being gentleman that’s stupidity.
