Geta (footwear). Specifically, these are Tengu-Geta. They indicate that the person is a Tengu. -- kainaw 16:36, 13 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Not necessarily so. They are worn by yamabushi. This page might be helpful. Children can wear them too. [1] Watch also this. You can buy a pair about $50 to $80. See [2] and [3]. Oda Mari (talk) 06:57, 14 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
