shiny shoes

I don't wear shiny shoes. I think they are...well...ugly. I'm curious though why people do wear shiny shoes. Was it ever in the Official's Manual that your shoes have to be shined? I'm guessing this is something that started way back in the day when refs maybe wore regular shoes to officiate in - not sneakers. I know some associations definitely want you to wear shiny shoes. I'm so glad mine doesn't seem to care. Does anyone know the history on this?
