From dress debate to shoe squabble: What color is this trainer? (PHOTO, POLL)
A new viral ‘color’ debate – similar to the infamous dress argument of two years ago – has ignited online and this time a humble shoe is at the center of the shade controversy.
Social media users are squabbling over the true color of the shoe, with some insisting it's pink and white while others say it’s clearly grey and mint green.
The image initially surfaced in a private Facebook group before spreading to Twitter, with tweets of the image garnering thousands of retweets and likes as the debate raged.

While quarrels continue to rage across social media, some Twitter users are offering explanations for the color conundrum, stating that the skewed image is as a result of a camera flash and photo editing.
