Fashion common sense

Flip flops. A summer necessity.
Makers and designers of flip flops, I don't understand. Your job is to create a thing, and I am behind that one hundred percent. You're lucky, but you should maybe think about another outlet for your artistic side. A craft project at home, perhaps? Paint a mural in your family room?

Casey. What are you talking about?
This, fools.

Now, this flip flop design makes sense. The floral pattern covers a large area, leaving some of the color to peek out above the toes of the wearer. I can accept flip flop artwork such as this. However...


What the fuck is this noise? The design is positioned perfectly underneath your grubby foot for absolutely no one to see. Unless the soles of your dogs appreciate a fine piece of art, this is pointless. The only time anyone will see this is when you take the damn things off. At that point you've worn them, leaving the prettiness (Let's be kind. Someone thought this was pretty.) sullied by your sweaty, dirty foot grime. This is a travesty and it makes an artist and fashion lover sad as hell.

Flip flop designers, respect yourselves. You are better than this and deserve to have your creativity exhibited someplace other than a flimsy piece of foam upon which a person's pedal extremity shall rest.
