The Confederate Army headed to Gettysburg not only to get shoes, which were badly needed by some Rebel units marching barefoot.

That was a secondary task, while the primarily one was to give battle and decisively defeat and, if possible destroy the Union Army, which was approaching to Gettysburg, each Corps staggered from the next one coming up with some hour, by means of a strategic trap planned by Lee.
