Default have webbed feet

Hi! What does " have webbed feet" refer to? It appeared in a title -Does Calvin Klein have webbed feet. I fail to find the link between the content below and " webbed feet". Please give me a hand. Thank you!

Does Calvin Klein have webbed feet?

This contest smells . . . nice.
Calvin Klein Fragrances teamed up with GQ Magazine to search for a manly MAN. The new fragrance from Calvin is called MAN. So they're looking for five real life men who epitomize the image which they says is sexy, stylish, sophisticated, socially aware and smart.
It's not enough just to be cute.
So, how to enter your studliness? Log onto GQ to fill out a form and submit a photo. Or you can find a list of stores hosting searches with a pro-photographer taking the pics.
Judges from GQ and Calvin Klein will select five finalists who will be flown to New York for a photo shoot that will run in the magazine's "Year of the Man" issue in a 2008.
You have until November 30 to get your abs and social awareness up to snuff. We're sure there's a webfoot out there somewhere who could take on Garret Neff.
If so, how do we meet him?

hi ,
hope this might help you ... a person with webbed feet means his feet are interlinked for example the kind of feet a duck has or frog's feet .... are a good example of webbed feet .

"Webfoot" seems to be a newish term for someone who is used to playing with the world wide web - see here: The World-Wide Webfoot

The implication seems to be a suggestion that Calvin Klein has discovered the potential of web surfers for finding new faces to represent his products.
