flip flops

Flip-flops, are a type of open-toed footwear sandal, typically worn as a form of casual wear. They consist of a flat sole held loosely on the foot by a Y-shaped commonly rubber strap that passes between the first and second toes and around both sides of the foot. They may also be held to the foot with a single strap over the top of the foot rather than a thong. The name "flip-flop" originated from the sound made by the slapping of the sole, foot and floor when walking.
