I don’t know what the fashion is today, but when I was living in Munich in the 90’s, you could tell the Americans by their clothes, and the absolute give-away was the sneakers. Every young adult German wore Doc Martins. When I came back, I visited my family in SF, and we were at Fisherman’s Wharf and I saw a group of girls that I immediately pegged as German from their clothes; I walked over and introduced myself in German, and sure enough, they were German.
Shoes. It’s in the shoes.

Hah true, never met one without a pair somewhere
Still? I thought it was just current fashion.
My ex and her entire family had a pair. I knew a few colleagues who’d rock em too, mostly women though.
They’re great shoes, after they’re broken in. Last forever.
