The shoes do seem like an odd choice.

Maybe the ignorant who clicked him thinks those are rubber boots (what's the proper name?)... instead of SPACE boots...

Seriously, they PAY these people?!

Rubber rain boots in the USA
Wellington boots in the UK

To me they look like “platform shoes”



If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

Yes, that's what I mean!

But we KNOW what they are.. 

They should have used "normal" boots (this mold: 4515, for example)... Or even medieval ones (this mold: 4502, for example)

Wellies
At that moment the ship suddenly stopped rocking and swaying, the engine pitch settled down to a gentle hum. 'Hey Ford.' said Zaphod, 'that sounds good. Have you worked out the controls on this boat?' 'No,' said Ford, 'I just stopped fiddling with them.' (With thanks to Douglas Adams)

In other words, shoes that no one here owns. We're unprepared for precipitation here in the desert.

I love that word!
It almost sounds like someone splashing in a puddle  ;D

In Australia they’re known as gumboots  :)
