Product: The Sims 4
Platform:Mac
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
What is your current game version number? 1.58.69.120
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All of them.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Graduate and observe what shoes the game assigns your sim with their graduation gown.
What happens when the bug occurs? I'm assuming that the game may be randomly assigning shoes with the graduation gown, regardless of the gender of the shoes and sim. I have a male sim. When he graduated I noticed when he cheered and I could see his shoes that he has female shoes on - high heels.
What do you expect to see? I expect to see shoes that match the gender of the sim graduating, or their regular shoes - or preferably their dress shoos that I chose in CAS.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. Graduation came with Discover University.

This happened most likely because of a uniform tag missing that would assign footwear to the graduation outfit. I haven't played through to a graduation yet, but I've seen this behavior with other uniform assignments in game. It's a small, but incredibly annoying thing.

The shoes are completely random, they don't even follow the CAS tags of male and female. Here are some examples:
Slippers
Heals with cats, flip-flops, boots
Turquoise and purple

Seeing this also on PS5. I just had twins graduate, and one of them wore some lovely green heels.
February 2022
I have this issue as well, still in the game. EA do your job please, there is way too much bug in this game, its unbearabled. Some are due from years, since season EP...
July 2022
It's still not fixed after years!!!!! My sims are graduating in slippers, and male sims wear high heels. It's so annoying EA please fix this!!!
October 2022
Sims team please just make the sims wear their formal outfit shoes! The random (And gender-inappropriate) shoes look terrible and ruin any possible full-body pictures taken with graduating uni friends. I don't mind guys wearing heels if it's their choice but this isn't it. Someone who's never worn heels in their life wouldn't even know how to walk in them...
