Donald Trump's alleged shoe gifting to various advisors is leaving social media users in stitches over one specific detail.

Alongside donning a MAGA cap, apparently the ultimate status symbol of being a Trump supporter is if the POTUS has gifted you a pair of... Leather Oxford shoes.

According to various reports, the president has been gifting members of his office Florsheim shoes costing around $145 (£107).

Not only this, but he's been heard addressing members in cabinet meetings to guess their shoe size before sending an aide to order them, The Wall Street Journal reports.

Trump has also reportedly been heard checking if people have received the shoes, before praising others for sporting their 'incredible' new footwear.

A female White House official told the outlet the shoes are for 'the boys,' reflecting on it as 'hysterical because everyone's afraid not to wear them'.

And it's not taken long for people to weigh in on social media, particularly after seeing images of Secretary of State Marc Rubio wearing a pair which look a tad too big.

One Twitter user said: "Oh. My. God. He makes ALL of the men in his cabinet wear these Florsheim Oxfords? And none of them fit?"

"Can't they just refuse ? Clearly the wrong size ! Or they can't ?," another added.

A third noted: "These are mass produced $145 shoes. They are the price of a pair of Nikes. They’re at DSW. Why don’t these guys just buy a pair that fits and pretend it’s the one Trump got them??"

And a fourth wrote: "There’s something deeply poetic about the world’s most powerful country being run like a provincial wedding party where the boss buys everyone the wrong shoes and expects loyalty in return."

But who else has been lucky enough to be in with owning a pair of Trump's favorite shoe?

Well, the Wall Street Journal reports Vice President JD Vance also owns a pair, alongside Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, Communications Director Steven Cheung, deputy chief of staff James Blair and speechwriter Ross Worthington.

During a meeting in which Vance and Rubio were present, Trump reportedly asked the pair for their shoe size before remarking: "You can tell a lot about a man by his shoe size."

Well, I wonder what you can tell about a man who's shoes are too big for him eh?

Tyla has contacted the White House for comment.
