I think that is how many of the villagers I see driving a fancy golf cart payed for it. It is the same thing for jewelry, that I don't have...and the same for bigger houses. Most of those folks went without something, and lived well inside their incomes and worked far more than eight hours a day to be able to have some nice stuff now.
There is no shame to have money if you earned it.
One of the ways people would have money for that golf cart is that they didn't fling out all that money for their kids sneakers.

So you have determined, from reading your posts on the subject, the following:
Parents of the group (who's ages etc are unknown) are actually paying for the shoes.
Only 3 people were going to buy the shoes for themselves, the rest were there to rob the people who bought them.
None of the people who were there worked or sacrificed for the money to buy the shoes and some even took money from others in order to buy them.
Most of the folks living here went without something, lived within their incomes and worked more than 8 hours a day to have nice stuff.
And the parents of these kids could buy nice golf carts if they didn't give them money for sneakers.
WOW!!!!
