Their intended practical purpose was to protect shoes and socks from mud or rain, but they also served as a feature of stylish dress in accordance with the fashions of the period. … Increased informality may have been the primary reason for the decline in the wearing of spats. … A revival of high-top shoes with cloth uppers was forecast to replace them.

The important thing was I had an onion on my belt, which was the style at the time.

Seems about right for the joker. Don’t get me wrong should still be a knife or something in the pump, but seems about right

Kind of expected a garter belt and a dagger TBH
VindictiveJudge@lemmy.world 8 months ago
Just like Yzma.

Took me a minute to understand. Someone should recolor the Joker with a non-pale skin color to show how it looks because in my head it looks funny this mobster looking-guy showing up making threats with women’s shoes.
Cipher22@lemmy.world 8 months ago
It is the Joker, that’s still in character.
electric@lemmy.world 8 months ago
I know, just found Joker even funnier now.

Pale, but like... Swedish pale, not clown makeup pale
More tanned. Outlines are a bit fucky on this one and I had to change the building behind him a bit because it was too close to the new skin colour, but I'm not doing an effort job for this

Joker crazy in the streets and the sheets.
byroon@lemmy.world 8 months ago
What a joker
FartsWithAnAccent@fedia.io 8 months ago
Wow, I always assumed he was wearing old timey spats or something lol
Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 8 months ago
Probably was and overthinking an animation flub isn’t worth the effort. It’s a quick joke and they weren’t concerned that kids would freeze the frame and start questing continuity. There’s a McFarlane figure based on the Timm design that has laces where you’d think they’d be.

They are lol, it’s just a one off joke because it’s ultimately a cartoon
RGB3x3@lemmy.world 8 months ago
If there’s any character that wouldn’t give a shit about gender roles, it’s the Joker.
Gabu@lemmy.world 8 months ago
He’s batsexual and nothing else matters

I see a line at the ankle, and a change between white and an ultra-pale pink, but maybe that’s just me.

updoot to cope

Please don’t type updoot, or please fuck off back to reddit with your IPO

I sort of see it but it could just be compression artifacts. Someone will have to do further digging.

The money you look at it, the weirder it gets. Like his legs look way to thin for his size, or how tiny his feet are compared to his hands.
WamGams@lemmy.ca 8 months ago
The animation was originally a female character, they just put the Joker over it.
Back in those days, a lot of animations were reused, especially cartoons. Certain movements could be seen hundreds of places.
Knock_Knock_Lemmy_In@lemmy.world 8 months ago
Not the entire animated series.
We can only confirm he wore them in one part of one episode … on one leg.
moosetwin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 months ago
it also reveals that he is almost as pale as I am

I’d call myself a day walker, but technically I burn in sunlight.

I think the issue is that none of those run up to mid thigh, lol. :)
BottleOfAlkahest@lemmy.world 8 months ago
I don’t think they’re implying that he is wearing those, it’s just a reference photo for anyone who doesn’t know what spatz are.
can@sh.itjust.works 8 months ago
My issue was not knowing what they were in the first place.
