In a sentence

靴(くつ)shoesを履(は)いput onて

Put on your shoes

How it works

を (object) marks 靴(くつ) (shoes) as the thing being acted on, and the verb 履く(はく) (put on) shifts to its て (te-form) as 履いて(はいて) (put on). The te-form here works as a light command or an action left hanging — “put your shoes on…” — common in casual spoken Japanese.
