Image?
I wonder if it would be possible to find a good picture for this article. LordAmeth 11:26, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

A link to an online store would be helpful. - 67.136.165.16 22:16, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Why? Wikipedia is not an advertising service. --PkerUNO 04:33, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Because stores contain pictures. Not every appearance of a product is advertisement, and advertisement isn't the end of the world. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.72.206.153 (talk) 03:37, 23 March 2017 (UTC)

JOSHRC
Is there really such a thing as the "Japan Occupational Safety and Health Resource Center"? I can only assume that's an English translation of some organization with a completely different name. Whether it's Wikipedia protocol to translate such things (I can't imagine why it would be, they're proper nouns), surely, surely the acronym would be inappropriate given that it's the acronym of an imagined translated version of the actual name of the organization. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.72.206.153 (talk) 03:37, 23 March 2017 (UTC)


 * It's a real thing.
 * Full name in Japanese: 全国労働安全衛生センター連絡会議 (Zenkoku Rōdō Anzen Eisei Sentā Renraku Kaigi, literally "Country-wide Labor Safety [&] Health Liaison Board")
 * Short name in Japanese: 全国安全センター (Zenkoku Anzen Sentā, literally "Country-wide Safety Center")
 * URL: https://joshrc.net/ (in Japanese)
 * You'll note that the website itself has "JOSHRC" right at the top of the page.
 * Here's an online dictionary that glosses the English phrase "Japan Occupational Safety and Health Resource Center" with the Japanese 全国労働安全衛生センター連絡会議 (full) and 全国安全センター (short).

Socks and cleaning
Are they worn over the bare foot or do people use socks (tabi) to wear them? How are they cleaned? Are they put in the washer like a sock or does one pass a damp cloth like an athletic shoe? --Error (talk) 19:17, 23 July 2018 (UTC)
