I feel like it really spends on the design of the character. If they have larger animal paws or hooves and digi legs shoes don't seem to make a lot of sense. But some anthros have more human like builds and shoes make sense then I think.

Nyeh, its subjective, red doesn't wear shoes, but thats becuse his feet are huge, and he's a alien...and stuff...

I would say it depends on the fur in question. Are their feet more like the animal portion or more like the human portion? I feel that the more humanoid the foot, the better the idea of shoes fits. And in some cases, high heels and sandal-like footwear could work well for both kinds of feet.

I have to agree with you about different paws,claws,hooves, etc. I don't really understand how shoes would work on an anthropomorphic animal, but if others like it, then I don't care.

In my eyes, the whole idea of furries wearing shoes feels like more of an aesthetic more than for function, especially if they have the species' feet (hooves, paws etc.). Especially difficult would it be for those who (like my fur) have hooves without the proper ankle-footblade angle, and therefore would need a sort of calf straps.

My fur does wear shoes, but that's because her feet while not paws are fairly large and they end in claws rather than nails.
