These are some top-notch, hybrid friggin’ flip-flops I’m featuring here.

There’s basically two kinds of flip-flops; the simple flat soled ones like the Quiksilver ones on Tuesday or the upmarket shaped soled ones like this pair of Reef ones.

They are as comfortable as trainers, they suck in the fresh air and blow out the stink and these bad boys also have a bottle opener in the sole…have I just sorted your summer out or what.

Surfdome - is an online surf store with tshirts, shorts, shoes, flip-flops and more stuff than the tide brings in.

Footwear for summer is important, your feet will sweat so getting air to them is vital.

Wearing trainers with socks looks crap. Wearing trainers without socks is gross. Wearing trainers with those poxy little socks that you try to hide but everyone knows you’re wearing them is just pointless.

Get some air with flip-flops. They are versatile; you can wear them with shorts or with jeans/trousers. They are also pretty cheap too.

Forget about the Jesus-Creeper sandals. They aren’t cool or hippyish or whatever, they are shit. Pure and simple.

This pair of Quiksilver flip-flops are also available in black and in black/brown.

This pair of Quiksilver Tan Abyss Flip-Flops are £14 and shipping is £4. If you spend £70 or more then shipping is FREE…and I should bloody hope so too! BUY
