Everyone loses their shoes once in a while, but this is quite a place to lose them.
Or, is this just a picture of an invisible person waiting for the subway?
Please provide your theories in the comments.

Man spontaneously implodes while trying to navigate weekend train schedule.
The only person deemed worthy has been taken up in the Rapture.
The message is don’t stand to close to the edge!
As they may say in Russia, “Try ‘Putin-On’ these shoes!”
“Ain’t it good to know, you’ve got a friend.”
Yes, you.
Next Marvel movie blockbuster now being filmed in NYC Subway – “The Invisible Man”.
The Phantom of the Opera?
C’mon, you expect trainers to take the bus?
“The Invisible Man: Now playing at Lincoln Center”
Another thing for uwsiders to protest: height of these high tops.
Hahahahaha… That’s funny… because it’s true!!!!
I can’t even guess, but what a great photo!
Aha! What a fabulous photo? I have a theory: it was the photographer in the subway station with his cell phone.
It’s art!

You never know a person until you walk in their shoes.
The abdominal slowman…
How many shoe brands made in U.S.A. ? Is the person homeless? Remember @ the N.Y.P.D. guy who gave away his Boots ? Similar re some Shoes in England, ? Anyone read the history of the Nike brand? [joke :] Maybe the person faded away, waiting for the correct Subway train. I prefer much of London Transport. There used to be a guy from the country of Jamaica; E. 57th St. area — who made shoes. Remember Haley Mills re song “Cobbler…”, ? Also, “All G-d’s children got shoes.”
Your “Maybe the person faded away, waiting for the correct Subway train.” is my fav so far.
I just figured I’d walk a mile in their shoes:

Dang! I forgot to sprinkle the invisible powder on my shoes! Again.
The SHADOW KNOWS……
“Beam me up, Scotty”
To ease your commute, always take a pair of smelly sneakers with you to clear out people on the platform.
Pacing the Platform
“If you want to forget all of your problems, wear a pair of small shoes”. The person abandoned their small shoes to face life’s problems head on. Bring ’em on!
Oh there they are!! I’ve been looking everywhere…
It’s the Invisible Man, and he’s naked. But even he won’t go barefoot in the NYC subway.
I see lots of people change out of their sneakers and into business shoes on their way to work.
I guess men are getting into that now.
