Har Be Bar wears Pan Phue's traditional Burmese shoes after Ka Sin's wife, Sar Ge Dar, accidentally leaves the apartment with Har Be Bar's shoes, May 17, 2015

These are traditional Burmese shoes. In this case, Har Be Bar wears these shoes after Ka Sin's wife, Sar Ge Dar, accidentally leaves the apartment with Har Be Bar's shoes. It is common for someone to simply slip on any shoes that are left by the front door to go outside. Har Be Bar says this happens all the time. The Burmese shoes are beautiful. These are made of black velvet on the entire surface, even the sole of the shoe. The shoe is embroidered and adorned with gemstones.
