Shoes on Hobbits?
I have the colector's version of The Hobbit, which is illustrated byt the author. Of all the pictures of Bilbo (well, ok there's omly about three) there is only one where he is not wearing shoes!!!!! In one it evern looks as if he is wearing stockings as well! This seems strange after one has heard that hobbits never wear shoes.
And, as the fellowship leaves Rivendell, and Sam is going over his list in his mind, there is a mentioning of woolen hose! Ok Mr. JRRT you have some 'splaining to do
