: Hola Carmen. La cuestión es que hay zapatos así llamados que no son de ese material, otra cosa es que lo digan mal, pero lo que tú dices es muy correcto.

simplemente "zapato" o "zapato de vestir"
Yo lo llamaría simplemente "zapato" o "zapato de vestir".
Es normal que en inglés sea un nombre compuesto porque la palabra "shoe" es mucho más genérica que en castellano, en cambio nosotros usamos "zapato" sólo para "zapatos". :)

: este calzado no es considerado un zapato de vestir, al contrario, es un estilo casual no un zapato que un caballero lleva a una boda o evento formal

:D Lo sé. Con vestir me refería a ropa que no sea de "sport", no necesariamente de un exceso formal. He modificado mi peer coment en un agree para tí.

Yo sólamente te decía que en ocasiones he visto zapatos que no son de ante y los llaman así, no sé si será por el tipo de calzado o la forma, que de forma tradicional ha ido adquiriendo ese significado.
Saludos.
