Pumps
I'm not sure why, but Ken called this one "male nude with pumps."
The Oxford English Dictionary has one definition of "pumps" as sports shoes, plimolls (labeled as British, now regional). In British school stories from the early 20th century, "pumps" were contrasted with "boots," which meant the ordinary leather shoes of the time which extended just above the ankle.

ReplyDeleteThe Plimsolls were also the name of an English New Wave band!
DeleteWow, I've been to the UK like 20 times, and never knew that. Thanks!
