skymama 37 #1 June 24, 2004 I had to laugh when I read this article about flip-flops today. I've had this same conversation with my dad. He hates the noise so much, he compared me to a horse on a cobblestone walkway once! Now I just go barefoot at work. The thing I hate is getting flip-flop toe, that blister between your toes from wearing them sometimes. Ouch!

skymut 0 #3 June 24, 2004 I love my flip-flops and I have lots of 'other' sandals as well. Tevas, Birks, Docs, Born...I love them. When I die, bury me in my sandals.

mcneill79 0 #4 June 24, 2004 I wear flip flops every day... People at work know when I'm coming by the sound of my shoes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AggieDave 6 #6 June 24, 2004 Screw flip-flops. What you need is a good pair of Birks. Real Birkenstocks, not the cheap ripoffs that don't feel as comfy and don't last as long. I started wearing birks when I was 15 or so, that pair lasted me about 7 years. I'm on my second pair now, for the past 3 years, and now that they're good and broken in, I see them lasting atleast another 5 years. Well, you know, I would still be wearing my old pair, if my mother hadn't wigged out since they looked worn (looked bad in her opinion), since they were so damned comfy.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

Katzeye 0 #7 June 24, 2004 Noise? The only noise I hear from the Hawaiian "slipper" crowd is the shuffling of the feet on the ground. You will never hear any Hawaiian locals making "noise" in their flip-flops. Is a chicken omelette redundant? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kennedy 0 #8 June 24, 2004 I amke almost no noise when I walk in my flip flops. My new boots make more noise (they have a really annoying squeak that won't go away). It does kinda bug me when some people seem to make the most possible noise with them. ps - a good fitting pair shouldn't give you that flip-toe thing. It's all about a good fit and a decent material for the thong piece. Any with cheap rubber or plastic in the middle will tear up your foot something fierce though. pps - it's raining in my back yard, pouring actually, but it's dry in my front yard. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EricaH 0 #9 June 24, 2004 I love & live in my flip-flops!! I hardly make any noise, but sometimes I aggrivate myself w/ the noise & i HATE IT when someone can't control their flop. You just have to learn to walk correctly. I agree w/ Katzeyes - if you know how to do it, it'll be smooth as silk. i have lotsa pairs, you learn what kind of thong will & won't work between your toes, kinda like the other thong that you hope won't give you toes. There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear. PMS #227 (just like the TV show) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kennedy 0 #10 June 24, 2004 Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that I only have one pair, they're on that beautiful line between broken in and broken down, and I got them for less than $15 at some megamart.witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VanillaSkyGirl 6 #14 June 24, 2004 QuoteI prefer the sound of stiletto heels I don't care much for the sound, but I LOVE the way my bum looks when I wear stilettos. I have some sexy 5" ones that I look at every day. I can hardly wait to wear them when doctor gives me the green light. This broken ankle thing sucks.
