* Murdoc Niccals of ''[[Gorillaz]]'' is notoriously proud of his Cuban-heeled boots and almost always wears them even when wearing nearly nothing else. According to the biography, ''Rise of the Ogre'', he was deeply annoyed by Damon Albarn upon first meeting him, because:
{{quote| The first thing Damon said to Murdoc, pointing down at his boots, was "Your Cuban heels are crap. Look, mine are the proper sort." Damon was wearing a pair like Murdoc's, but with fancy gold spurs and solid silver heels.}}
* Disco Stu in ''[[The Simpsons]]'' has shoes with goldfish in the soles (kind of like the aforementioned [[I'm Gonna Git You Sucka|Fly Guy]]). Unfortunately, the fish are dead, because he can't take them out or feed them.
* In the ''[[South Park]]'' episode "the list", {{spoiler|a group of girls fakes a list that says Clyde is the cutest boy in the class so they can date him and get shoes.}}

* Most of the characters in ''[[Teen Titans (animation)|Teen Titans]]''. Robin has steel-toed boots designed to look like the aforementioned Chuck Talyors, Beast Boy has sneakers with animal-print soles, and even Cyborg has some pretty cool-looking feet. Glen Murakami had this to say on the character designs:
{{quote| "I just didn't want them super-buff like the Justice League characters. I wanted them to have a clumsy quality about them. And like all teenagers, they would really be into footwear. Big clod-hopper shoes. That's why I gave [Robin] the metal [steel-toe] combat boots."}}
