The image displays a close-up, downward-angled view of a black rubber sandal or flip-flop sole, located within the city of Rukn ad-Din Municipality, Syria. The sole features a pronounced ribbed tread pattern with parallel raised lines traversing diagonally across the frame from upper left to lower right. Several oval-shaped inserts, each partially blue and partially dark, are embedded into the sole's surface. Partially legible embossed text, "LACOSTE," is visible on the lower central portion of the sole. A small, crushed insect, primarily yellowish-brown with dark fragments and splayed appendages, is affixed to one of the diagonal ribs, slightly above the image center. The insect appears flattened and dismembered. The sole's surface shows signs of minor wear and is covered with scattered dust particles and small light-colored debris. The background is indistinct and out of focus.
