Shoes and slippers should NOT be merged but both listen as sub-categories under papal vestments! Your problem, in the first place, was confusing the two, which lead someone to claim that Benedict XVI had restored the old papal slippers. A.M.
That's fine with me, provided someone corrects the statements about Benedict XVI restoring the papal "slippers". I am still learning to sign-off, so, for now, A.M.
Okay, I've corrected all the other articles. And figured-out signing-off. Athanasius 19:33, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)
If papal shoes and slippers are going to be merged, it should be done like this:
In order not to have to change any of the references in the other articles, which now all refer to papal shoes or slippers, the article's title should be changed to "Papal Shoes", which would include all 3 types of shoes. We have an article each on papal shoes and papal slippers. The painting of Pius VII should be the image connected to the Papal Slippers section and the photo I provided to the papal shoes section. I could write a short piece on the papal liturgical slippers, and that image of the slippers & 'gauntlets' (currently under papal slippers) could be included there.

They're on the papal slippers page. The liturgical sandals are the ones shown with the gloves. The slippers are the ones on Pius VII. We really need a better picture of the slippers, eventually. ( Athanasius 03:09, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC))
A Carthusian monk, all of whom wear only white habits, refused to change his garments starting the trend I believe, Worth some research perhaps.

I am surprised to see no mention of the footwear associated with the current occupant of the see. -- Haruo ( talk) 16:04, 16 October 2014 (UTC)
Etruscan and Roman priests wore red shoes. Surely the Church's explanation is covering for something—the red color of priestly shoes in Italy is older than Christianity by hundreds of years. 72.68.108.107 ( talk) 23:52, 20 October 2019 (UTC)
