Do you like buying shoes? How often?
Candidato
I guess purchasing and collecting shoes is actually one of my favorite hobbies and really one of the few items that I really care about in my wardrobe, you could say. Because although I care about my clothes, I just have a very special interest in shoes and sneakers, especially some really good Oxford shoes which look very classy in a formal environment.
Examinador
Have you ever bought shoes online?
Candidato
Yes, I did buy shoes online once but it was not really a good experience for me because although they promised that the shoes would be original, but they ended up becoming a copy product because they really did not have any original barcode on them. So when I went to actually scan it, it didn't show anything which proved that they were fake.

How much money do you usually spend on shoes?
Candidato
My approach to buying shoes is but unique. So instead of buying shoes too frequently, actually save up money to buy a more expensive product because they tend to last longer. My dad once bought a shoe from Korea and it was from Field I believe. It really lasted 7 years of regular use and I was really impressed by it.

Which do you prefer, fashionable shoes or comfortable shoes?
Candidato
I have shoes that fall under both of those criterias and it really depends on the situation I'm at and the event I'm attending. Because in a formal event I obviously wouldn't really care about comfort as much as how they look. But I do prefer for daily use shoes that are both good looking and very comfortable to wear.

The sentence incorrectly uses both 'because' and 'but' together, which is redundant and grammatically incorrect. In English, coordinating conjunctions like 'but' should not be combined with subordinating conjunctions like 'because' in this way. The correct approach is to remove 'but' after 'because' to maintain proper sentence structure.

The word 'criteria' is the plural form of 'criterion'. Using 'criterias' is incorrect because 'criteria' already indicates plural. This is a common mistake in English pluralization. The correct plural form is 'criteria' without an 's' at the end.
