Novel footwear upon the upper front portion of which an animated face with movable eyes is located. The footwear comprises an inner sole, an outer sole, and an upper shoe surface affixed together in a wearable relationship, with an arch-shaped support member located in a forward interior portion of the footwear. The upper portion of the arch is in contact with the interior of the upper shoe surface, and its opposite lower edges are affixed to edge portions of the outer sole. The inner sole is interrupted at a forward location generally corresponding to the location of the arch, and an upwardly biased treadle member is operatively disposed at such interrupted location. Upon the forward part of the foot of the user, on occasion, entering such arch member and extending therethrough, the ball of the foot normally rests on the treadle. The upper central portion of the arch serves as support for simulated eye members that are displayed on the exterior of the upper shoe surface, which eye members are pivotally mounted in spaced apart locations on the arch member, and have normal as well as deflected positions. Linkage means interconnect the eye members and the treadle, such that the eye members are rotated each time the foot of the user presses down on the treadle member. The eyes are biased to rotate back to their normal positions when the user's weight is removed from the treadle.
