Is It a Flip Flop or a Thong?
There has been a lot of debate about the proper terminology for the flat sandals with a thong on top to separate the toes. Actually, either term is correct.
If you look around, you will find flip flops everywhere. They used to be the shoe of choice for the working middle class during the summer and their comfort and ease of wearing has helped flip flops become one of the most popular shoe designs there is.
Flip flops aren't just for the beach anymore either, you can find them in clubs, restaurants, stores and even weddings! Some brides who get married in an outdoor setting such as a beach or lakeside have worn flip flops with flowers woven around the thong to match the flowers in their hair and in their bouquets.
If you have great feet and your pedicure is always ready for show, you will look fabulous in a pair of flip flops. The only complaint many people have about flip flops is their lack of shock absorption when walking for long periods of time. You can beat that by getting a pair of super soft Havaianas brand flip flops. They are made using a well kept secret recipe for synthetic rubber that no other company has been able to duplicate for making sandals this soft and comfortable. The specialized rubber makes the Havainas soft between your toes and makes each step a comfy one. If you need a little more support go for the
Clarks Wisteria Thong. This is a twin-strap thong sandal that has a leather wrapped cushioned foot bed and Clarks’ popular shock-absorbing outsole reduce stress.
Thongs or flip flops; it doesn't matter what you call them - they mean summer!
