A crumb from Rotterdam

Since tattooing is a "contact profession," all tattoo shops in Rotterdam are closed until April 28, so the staff of artists at Tattoo Bob in Rotterdam-Katendrecht have temporarily focused on embellishing footwear for doctors and nurses serving in Intensive Care.

These unique clogs not only look good. They offer another advantage. Because of the pandemic, most health care workers are wearing identical suits and facial coverings, and this can make it difficult for them and their patients to recognize each other, until patients see the uniquely tattooed footwear.
