Do the shoes you wear expose your personality to others? Does the study that claims - your shoes are the first thing someone evaluates you - really true?

First Line: Please describe what you wear to work.
To avoid racism and other stereotypes, HR may be using your shoes?
Does a guy wearing flip-flops (open toe) to work say something about his personality?
Do I wear hand-made polished leather shoes with leather soles made in Austin, Texas because it makes me feel good... or because I hate the cattle? I bought several pair so I can wear them with our with-out my uniform. Don't mind wearing them on a 3 mile walk over walking shoes if the weather encourages wearing slacks.
This is something I bring up at meetings with younger tech staff. Not paying attention to detail, not following up on assigned task, not being pro-active... This is a recent research that justifies the comments. And, discussing shoes is independent of any other physical character.
I do hate cattle. It is a fact. Oil had dropped below $3.00 a barrel so my dad couldn't afford to hire me at his oil recycling refinery. I had to work five hours a day after school and make up the 40 hours during weekends by working at cattle feed lots. Like Marvin the Manic Robot, the brain the size of a planet... and forced to do dirty task to earn college money.
So, what do you wear? Does it fit your personality as others perceive you?
