This Hadīth includes a prohibition of wearing the shoes while standing, because wearing them while sitting is easier and provides more control. This ruling applies only if the shoes need some handling, because wearing them while standing might cause one to lose balance when lifting the leg. Nowadays, however, it is fine to wear shoes while standing. The prohibition does not apply here because the shoes we wear today are easy to handle without a need to sitting down. Finally, the rulings of Shariah apply to men and women alike with no distinction, unless there is textual proof that specifies a ruling to either gender. Men are specifically mentioned in this Hadīth, because they normally go out more frequently.
