I live in Queens and I'm a flip flop person, in the Summer I wear no socks with my sneakers a lot of the time (not nasty like it sounds), I'll probably fit right in in Hawaii lol.
It be too hot for sneakers, I wear sneakers in Winter (when there's precipitation it's most likely gonna be rain) and when it does snow a lot maybe I'll bring out the ACG's.
Me and Infamous are at Roosevelt Field and half the people in here have on flip flops now that I'm actually looking (I normally don't pay attention to stuff like this), it's windy and drizzly too lol.
I've seen people wear flip flops in San Antonio even when it's cold. But yeah, just about any Texas city wears them. I've even seen people in Ohio and NYC wear them. Basically every big city I've ever been to I've seen lots of people wear them.

Well we have these posters who can give an unbiased, truthful response to a question and then we have the others that want everyone to think every woman in NYC are wearing stiletto heels 24/7.
I am sure I don't need to state that flip flops, sandals, etc are normal everyday wear here in FLA.
Interesting responses and it sounds like flip flops are common footwear everywhere. I just assumed that sophisticated cities like New York would be a less likely place for flip flops. On those TV programs like Access Hollywood\ Entertainment Tonight, etc. they make snobbish comments when they show celebrities wearing flip flops. Oh well.
^in MY personal experience, i don't see an abundance of females in flip flops in ny. at all.
i'm not going to say that flip flops are banned here and nobody is wearing them at one time or another but to say something like nyc is a "flip flop city" or something like that...na. it just isn't.
do i look down on women that wear them? no. i couldn't care less.
but my honest and truthful answer to this thread stands:

i'm 26 and go between queens and manhattan if that matters. my exp might be different from somebody in another borough.
I've never really someone rock heels unless they were going to a club or party.
I see flats, flip flops, & sneakers.
