Winkle pickers are a style of shoes characterized by their long, pointed toes. They were popular in the 1950s and 1960s, particularly among rockabilly and punk subcultures. Originally designed for men, they have since been embraced by various fashion trends and can be found in both men's and women's footwear. The name is believed to originate from a tool used to extract winkles, a type of mollusk, from their shells.
