Moved to mainspace by Bruxton (talk). Self-nominated at 02:55, 28 June 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Last Dance shoes; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.

• Reviewing... New enough, copyvio<8%, QPQ provided, hook in article and source. Will complete soon. Whispyhistory (talk) 09:28, 28 June 2023 (UTC)

... Hook is in the article and followed by a reference containing the hook (length <150 characters). I found other shoes that have been valued higher, but the hook is not stating they are the most exoensive shoes, so I think okay. Whispyhistory (talk) 13:31, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
