In case you didn't know, Gator shoes is simply slang for Alligator shoes. Some people always feel that they have to use slang in their everyday language so have to change up the words they use to refer to things. I don't know how hard it is to say alligator but who am to judge. Anyway, Once you become a Veteran Mens Fashion Suit Fashionista, you may have considered getting yourself some Mens Gator Shoes. Whether you wear suits that are flashy or just Classy, I'm pretty satisfied with the fact that you have wanted getting a pair of Gators. Being in the Mens fashion suit business for over twenty five years, it's pretty much common knowledge for us that we need to provide shoes to sell and match the suits. One of the most popular shoes for men to buy are Mens Gator Shoes. Men who are into matching up their suits to their shoes simply love the look of gator shoes for one reason. They know how much genuine mens gator shoes cost. Real Mens Gator Shoes usually start in the range of $250 to several hundreds of dollars. Why. The answer is one of marketing first laws of commerce. Supply and Demand. Since alligator skins do not grow on trees but on real alligators, the supply is very limited indeed. Alligators are not widely hunted except when populations may become large enough that they need to be culled so they don't endanger humans. Since alligator are not raised and eaten for their meat as much in the wholesale manner as cattle are, they are only good for their rare and exotic skins. So that makes the cost of gator skins so expensive because of the rarity. Dress shoe manufacturers have bent over backwards to try to perfectly emulate the true texture of gator shoes but to no avail. They simply don't look quite like the genuine article. First of all, they never exactly get the subtle texture of real gator skin emulated into the stamping machines they use. Real gator skin has little indentations and subtleties that are always overlooked. Plus, if you ever felt what real gator skin feels like you will quickly know that leather that is printed to look like gator skin feels nothing like real gator skin feel. Plus real gator skin shoes are made much better with quality that can't be baked into a shoe that costs only seventy or eighty dollars. It doesn't stop them from trying though. That is why genuine mens gator shoes cost so much more than their printed cowhide counterparts.
