I wear flip flops until it snows up here. When I still lived at home in KY I wore flip flops almost year round. My feet never saw shoes in the summer time. Its way too hot in the south to wear shoes. Sandals/flip flops are much cooler.
Are you serious?? Flip flops? Who cares what kind of shoes someone wears! I wear flip flops all the time.. and so do millions of other people!! Next please..

Aren't there more things offense than someone wearing flip-flops? Jeez.
If you don't want to see someone's feet, don't look. I have seen a lot worse and mostly I don't worry about what other people are doing unless they are hurting someone else.
My criteria for relocating is...If you can wear flip flops year-round, then, it is my kind of place to live
Best thing is the brand Sanuk. They make flip flops of the traditional kind (I own their ones with a yoga mat footbed which I LOVE!). But, they also make shoes that have the foot top covered and the bottom is a flip flop bottom. Most comfy shoes I own are Sanuk. I love the idea of wearing the 'shoe' type as my winter shoes one day in Southern CA! Yay!
And, really, honestly, life is so short. Why spend it fussing over others' footwear choices?
When 2000, and the years after, arrived I noticed that people started to wear flip flops not just to the beaches or to other swimming locations but anywhere considered informal.
Where have you been??? People have been wearing flip-flops everywhere for many, many years.

Then don't look. Other people's feet are none of your business, unless they're stuck in your face. And maybe not even then.
I have to agree with the crocs with the holes...to me they don't make sense but I love love love my croc flip-flops. Like walking on marshmallows and they now have Croc high heel sandals. Again like walking on marshmallows. But great for casual with dress pants. I am five feet and even the petite length pants drag so these are perfect.
Well, today - I wore my flip-flops. I was at Bed, Bath & Beyond, paying for a scale. My one foot turned wrong in my flip-flop and the in-between toe thingie broke! CRISIS! Have no fear - the Sales Associate was near! He used his radio and they located a brand new pair of flip-flops in the store for me to buy so I did not hobble out of there like some leg-dragging fool. See. Flip-flops are everywhere to save the day. They are displayed at Bed, Bath & Beyond on a tall display next to the towels, they are just that important. They rock - and I SMACK-SMACK-SMACKED all the way into the parking lot.

I hear the sirens of the 'anti-flip flop wearing police' heading to the store now. Woman aisle 2, exposed foot!!!!!
