The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for October 25, 2014

Some high heels might pump you up.

Thing a thong of thixpence. You thexy thing.

Look! Feet with feet!

Aussies call them ‘thongs’ , Americans call them ‘flip-flops’, and a whole heap of different names are used in other countries

That’s the problem with flat feet. Nothing fits right.

Flip-flops hurt my toes.

It’s because he’s not wearing anything….She didn’t expect him to ask her to dress up differently…. She thought they’d always share…… always be sole mates.

I’m too sexy for my thong, too sexy for my thong, so sexy it hurts …

Little wonder. You have it on backwards and upside down.

You don’t fell sexy because, from the looks of things, neither one of you is having it.

Shower slides was a popular name, but as a kid they were thongs. Late 50s and early 60s. Didn’t wear them often, couldn’t run in them, and sports were impossible. Mostly beach wear.

Being a California girl, whatever you call them, they have always been a part of my shoe wardrobe.

“Here baby, put something sexy between your toes!”

Yes, you look better in a sock.

as a kid in japan, mid 50s, they were zoris, a sandal version of the, then ubiquitous, getas. they even had socks (the name of which I’ve forgotten) with a split for the big toe for colder weather. they were made of anything handy, but the most numerous were straw, cheap and utilitarian.

I’ve seen them made out of old tires. I wear mine every day and if they were allowed at work, I’d never go without them.
