Had no idea there was such a large anti-flip flop contingent! Olukais are my daily wears in the summer. Arch support is key though. Cheap flip flops are worse than barefoot.

Ya know what people who were flip flops a lot don't get? Stinky feet or foot fungus! Gross!

I walk fast and there's just no way to walk fast dignified in flip flops

Flip flops are not good for kicking peoples' ass. Therefore no flip flops.

Seriously though, if you've ever been jumped in public or had to run to or away from some emergency you probably won't wear flip flops again.

Plus I hate the noise. It's a weak beat without a decent bass line.

This is basically me. No I don't look to be kicking anyone ass unless its a proper go time. Lot of lessons ingrained from being around a good amount of fights in my teenage and early 20s. Also heavily influenced by my old danzan ryu jujitsu sensei in my early 20s which was extremely street practical focused/fight ending techniques but the mental aspect of maintaining disciplined threat awareness was the thing that I maintained the most.

Those that haven’t “flip flopped” .. simply need to try it (looking at you, @usiel)

Now I do have the below just for indoors only if I need my feet to be a little warmer without wearing socks and have to say is amazingly comfortable. I use a tempered glass chair mat essentially for my work/gaming center and bare feet on glass really starts to irritate the bottom of ones feet over time.

What am I reading.

To flop or not to flop. That is the question!

Our main man is on dry dock for a few weeks, so we may as well delve into other items for a moments levity!

But it depends on what you're going for, I'm pretty sure "la chancla" is just latina mother for "I'm about to beat your ass with this sandal"

The thought of flip flops cause people to clutch their pearls.

 

[HTFN]

Hey, you never know when “what the f*** was that” is the difference between you fighting in flip flops or being barefoot with the upper hand. La chancla came after presidents.

Worst case, f*** ‘em and chuck ‘em

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

Right I have different pairs of flip flops

Shower ones for the Hockey locker room because if you go barefoot in there, you deserve what you catch

Ones for indoor because I have pets and I don’t like getting my feet dirty, stepping on whatever they do

Stronger outdoor ones that can hold up to pavement and give more support

I like the reef brand prob just because the name

Also, I came here to read about Ovechkin’s injury, update, and read two pages about flip-flops. I have now contributed.
