My feet are disgusting. Pretty much all of my toes have blisters on them... gross I know. Clayton blames it on my running shoes, I just blame it on running. But, now I think that it is my feet trying to speak to me. I think they are suffocating! They need to breathe, feel the air around them. Socks and shoes are NOT healthy! The last few days it has been a balmy 30 degrees. Spring fever has hit the McMurdie household. My general rule thumb is that if the temperature is 40 degrees or warmer it is flip flop weather. Oh glorious day of sun and warmth, please come soon...for my feet's sake.
***Clayton has taught me to use the correct terminology for flip flop, the slipper. ***
In honor of the slipper I have posted 3 pictures of my favorite brands and the most comfortable slippers EVER. The rainbow slippers (pictured above) are something that Clayton introduced me too. They are so comfortable. The slipper sole forms to your feet. Rainbow's are not just for the gays anymore...
Between Clayton and I, I think we have at least 58 pairs of Locals. You have to wear them enough to feel the comfort...in my opinion anyway. They best thing about these slippers is that you can buy them for $3-$4 bucks at the Wal*Mart. The bad news is that you can only buy them at the Wal*Mart in Hawaii (and other stores in Hawaii, and online I believe...).
Sanuk also makes an amazing slipper. They also make some pretty amazing shoes. They have come up with these shoes which are NOT really shoes. They look like a shoe, but they have the sole of a slipper. In the winter, Clayton and I live in these things. You can check them out here. Sanuk is a Thai word for happiness & balance. I for one need some slipper happiness in my life right now and my feet need to breathe.

yes! ever since it has been 40 degrees and warmer i have worn flip flops. Also, rainbows are comfortable but not everyone has $30-$40 to spend on FLIP FLOPS. I think i will stay with the $3 Locals.....
Hey they are a good investment. They last forever...unless you try to swim with them (ahem Clayton). Leather does not do well in water.
Obviously this blog is going too far... Slipper advertisements??? C'mon...
Sue me! I was wearing two pairs of socks today with my shoes and needed to vent. I guess if it is considered an adverstisment then I should be paid for it....
interesting how many comments you put on your own blog! very entertaining.................
i have a great solution for you both. move to hawaii!!! come on, you know you want to. do it now while you still have a chance. :)
Man.....I can't wait to get back into flipflops either. Of course I don't have as many as either of you....but I can work on that. I'M TIRED OF THE COLD!!!!
