  • Is a clue to the fact that forms are being replicated on the island (by Jacob's enemy/the monster). In "So It Begins", the "Christian" talking to the dog is wearing both shoes, and this happens a mere minute or two before a groggy, awakened Jack runs past the single shoe stuck in the tree. This is a clue that the shoe in the tree is half of the actual pair that Jack put on his dead father's feet, while the shoes worn by the Christian "apparition" who addressed Vincent are a replication, as is that apparition itself. The real shoe jammed in the tree fell out of the real, dead Christian's coffin in the crash.
  • Made at Hurley's shoe factory.
  • Is an island-induced hallucination.
  • If the recurrence of objects that are black and white represent good and evil, then the owner of the shoe is one of the "good guys." Meaning that if the shoe belongs to Christian Shepard, as is a popular theory, then in the overall story of LOST, he is good.
