Yes, I know. Why would anyone take a picture of their feet? Well, these are my daily slippers and I actually love them. In Japan we don't wear shoes in the house of course and instead leave the shoes in the entryway in front of a big step. Most homes
have slippers for guests to wear while visiting. but I'm not a big fan of slippers. Last summer, Mrs. Ochiai gave me these nice pair of zori and I've been wearing them ever 
since. They are quite comfortable and in the winter I've been wearing them with toe socks which works out just fine! They are made of bamboo husks that have been hand woven and the straps are made of a fabric wrapped rope. Mrs. Ochiai also gave me a pair for Leiya so Leiya and I are running around pair-look style on both sides of the world!

Tanya, We call the Americanized version flip-flops and they are very popular. I have never seen toe socks in America but maybe others have. I'm with you, my feet get cold and I wear socks all the time. I do wear slippers in the house & not shoes.
Nice shoes ! I love those shoes with Toes pass through but here in summer without socks :-) and outside. At home I have thickens socks with burls under.
Where do you buy toe socks?
