The difference between boots and shoes is that boots usually have a higher leather around the ankle. This can extend from high ankle, shin, or to below the knee. Boots are often used during the winter, but some fashion boots have been worn year round (example 1970s). Boots are laced or zippered. Shoes are an enclosure of the foot and low to high ankle in material with laces, velcro, or in some odd fashion years zippers. Not all shoes can be worn anytime; for example, women wouldn't wear 4-inch heeled shoes on an icy day. The most worn type of shoe is one of thousands of variants of the "tennis shoe" or some similar footwear made of canvas.

What is the difference between the working voltage and test proof voltage for dielectric footwear?
Working Voltage is the voltage at which the boot is safe at. Test Proof voltage is what the boot was tested up to before it failed. However you must keep in mind that if you are in wet conditions that can significantly lower the rating of the boot. Also voltage does not kill you it is the amperage.

Is clarks first shoe ever made?
If this were true, it would mean the entire world went around barefoot going "gee, I wish I had something to protect my feet" until the Clark's shoe company was founded. How likely do you think that is?
Would epoxy glue fix a sole of a shoe?
Epoxy glue is very strong, and it is waterproof, but it is not flexible enough for the sole of a shoe. Shoe soles bend constantly as you walk, and if a glue is not flexible enough it is going to crack. Look for a brand of glue called Goop (there is even a variety specifically called Shoe Goop, but in my experience, there is very little difference between one variety of Goop and another). And remember that Goop takes a full 24 hours to become completely solidified.
