A while back we wrote an article titled the Flip Flop Faux Paux that explained why flip-flops were not a suitable form of footwear. While our stance hasn’t changed that much, we realize that some gents just can’t quite help themselves. So, if you’re determined to wear these out in the streets, how about opting for a pair of slides instead? With a much thicker sole and better overall support, a slide not only looks better, but also might save your shins in the long run. If you don’t want to break the bank, then an old school pair of Adidas slides are comfy, cool and cost effective. If you’re more inclined to something on the higher end of the spectrum, then look no further than this classic from Gucci. Don’t worry; your feet will thank us later.
