'Dutch' Shoes

I know that Holland is famous for its tulips.

But wearing such tulip decorated shoes/sneakers goes somewhat too far for me, 😁 .

It's good however that everyone has a different taste, else shoe shops wouldn't sell any of them.

A tad manic to me however, so it's my weekly Manic Monday (Mē) contribution.

Edit: honesty obliges me to say that my son, after reading my narrative and viewing this image, doesn't agree with me. "Think you're too old Dad, to know that these custom made shoes/sneakers are available in all kind of Dutch shoe shops and in Dutch internet shoe shops as well", was his reply. I really hope now that he won't give me such shoes/sneakers as a birthday present, 😁 😜 😁 !

I don't know, Mr C, maybe tulips are good for your sole too.

Lol! I know you have mentioned that you were rather tall, and to see you wearing such shoes might give me a good chuckle. They are cute, but not something I would wear. tigs=^..^=

I was somewhat deceived by your title Cornelius - I was certain I would see wooden shoes - really like these - I like the artwork as the tulips are so representative of your country - A Great Image for Manic Monday my friend!!!!!!!!!

You wouldn't have to tip toe through the tulips with these shoes on. Cute photo.

Perhaps these are much quieter than wooden shoes. An excellent photo with comp, lighting, color, and contrast.
