Green Shoes?

The Pope re-introduced the white papal mozetta, dropped by JP II. It is worn only during the Easter Octave, replacing the red one. The raditional red shoes are I understand also replaced by ...errrr, green ones.
Any sightings?

The Holy Father was still wearing this white mozetta on Monday 7th April when he visited the hospital church of St Bartholomew on Tiber Island. I couldn't see the shoes, though.
