Solution

The correct option is B thumbs
The actual phrase is 'thumbs sticking out', it's not 'fingers sticking out'. His shoes must have been very old and as a result had worn off. So, his thumbs were sticking out of them. Hence, option C is correct and the others are not because they do not provide the correct answer.
