Is the word 'shoe' technically in the singular form, but we understand it to be plural because it's a general statement?

So giyermek is for clothes and takmak for accessories, but what really is clothing and what is accessories? I have always though of shoes as accessories since people by shoes like this: http://goo.gl/aczwXx.

Is "ayakkabı" a compound noun? I'm noticing a possible genitive ending (ı).
