Why only steal the right-footed shoes ? Image Credit: Instagram / solebroscincy
The culprits seemingly broke into the store and spent time removing only the right-footed shoes from the boxes.
Hunter Emigh - owner of Sole Bros 513 in Cincinnati, Ohio - got quite the shock when he discovered that someone had broken into his store on October 8th.

He got even more of a shock, however, when he found out exactly what had been stolen.

Upon reviewing CCTV footage, he discovered that the thieves had spent a considerable amount of time painstakingly opening dozens of shoeboxes and taking out only the right-footed shoes while leaving the left-footed shoes alone.

Stills from the footage show the huge pile of boxes that had been left strewn across the floor - many belonging to expensive brands.

But why on Earth would the thieves have only taken one shoe from each box ?
The CCTV cameras did at least pick up the culprits - a man in a red hoodie, a man in a dark-colored outfit and also possibly a woman wearing glasses and carrying a white bag.

In addition to 100 right-footed shoes, the thieves made off with clothing and a number of other items.

Efforts to track down and catch those responsible remain ongoing.

Right footed shoes are the ones on display here in fancy shoe stores, for that very reason. The rest are under lock and key in the storeroom.
