Oh for God’s sake: Why not a flip-flop? A comfy bed for the foot, a deftly engineered thong squinched between two toes, no excess, no towering look-at-me-toddling-down-the-street heel, all minimalism, all function, a shoe that Ludwig Mies van der Rohe himself could love.

You want a new name for them? How about UgliSlabs? VulgaThongs? Flop-flops?
Hate 'em. Feet are ugly. Especially hate the noise of flip-flops slapping against the bottom of one's feet.
Flat feet for one reason not to wear FFs. Arch support is non existent. When you get older you WILL understand. Oh, by the way, tanning beds, skin cancer generators, stay out. Cheers!
