I can understand why Hilbert had the coolest shoes (excluding Calem because customization), because the region is based on America and bigger cities etc. It's not like he had to walk any less, but it fits the environment a little more. There was also nate who had shoes suited for getting wet but also walking. They're pretty much in-line with Sun, except Nate's are obviously designed to look like fast-drying, lightweight comfortable walking shoes. Again, they suit the game and environment.
They aren't always the most attractive shoes, but he'd look like a fucking idiot wearing boots.
