In the sentence "One day a man came in for a pair of shoes," the word "day" refers to a specific period of 24 hours, but it is used here more generally to indicate an unspecified time in the past. It sets the scene for the story being told, suggesting that the event occurred on a particular day without providing specific details about when it happened.
