Birmans should have white feet. Front paws have white gloves, preferably
ending in an even line across the paws at third joint (where toes meet paws).

The back paws have white gloves covering the front of each paw,
extending up the back of the legs ending in a point approximately half way up
the hock (“laces”). Evenly matched gloves and laces give a more balanced look,
but variations are allowed.

The paw pads may be all pink or spotted with color the same as
the points. Gloves and laces are weighted equally in evaluation.
Although the gloves and laces are important aspects of the Birman, they are
secondary to conformation.
