I agree, but I think it’s only fair to point out that magnets can repel as well as attract. I only do flip flops around the house. I don’t care what you do. Wear Crocs with socks for all I care.

Dante Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 I pretty much just use them for going in and out of the house. BBQ situation etc. Sometimes I will throw them on if I have to run to the store quick but that's it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gray Beard Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 I’m amazed at the number of people who I see out and about in flip flops. I think they are unsafe and gross, but people wear them out in public quite often in warm weather. My own son does sometimes. But I still think they are unsafe and gross. I am too cautious/paranoid myself. But I wear my Keen sandals whenever possible. They stay on more securely, they are comfortable for a lot of walking, and they have a rubber toe cover. They probably look dorky, but I don’t care. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patrick Duffy Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Just saw a dude at the store wearing the flops, looked as if he has not clipped his toe nails since his mother did it for him as a child. Guy could leap across a stream and catch a fish with those talons. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree, also want to add that those damn things were all yellow in color and just down right disgusting. Thought about taking a pic but didn't want to be too obvious and he may have gotten all pissy. But damn I wish my eyes would not have looked down as he trotted into the door. And of course he buys a 40oz of malt liquor and it was slightly before 9am.

Maybe if a chick was into kayaking or some other such sport then she would appreciate that Keen sandals are ugly, but they are useful. However, after looking at me she would realize that I’m ugly and I am not useful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bray Wyatt Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 I like sandals, have had a couple pair of birks, also have a pair of nike ones with a gel cushion which are super comfortable.

Not a good look at all! We call that "Monkey Paw" in our house. A lot of golfers have that on one hand, as well. Edit: It's okay, as best, to wear flip flops around in public.
