I never liked flip flops ,clumsy daft dangerous things that make a stupid sound ,
Ever tried to run in flops ? you cant , ever got caught when crossing rocks on the shore line when a flop falls off ?

Anyway I found a neat engineering solution to the problem ,
you simply get an 8 inch or so lenght of wide elasticated thread ,
pass this like a loop through the two eyelets at the back,a knot can be tied to secure it ,glue could be used here too  , now when you wear them you can hook the loop of elasticated thread around the ankle ,they no longer flop, your foot is also kept pushed forward into the shoe and it wont fall off even if you have to break into a sprint
Voila flipflops without the clippity clop . 8)

So...you'll call them "flips"?
