Special Slippers for the Restroom
In Japan, it is common to always find a special set of slippers in front of the restroom either when visiting someone’s home or at a restaurant. It is expected for one to use the provided slippers only while in the restroom and return them exactly to its original position for the next person.
Forgetting to return these special restroom slippers to its original position is frowned at and can be pretty embarrassing if one walks around outside the restroom.
