Flip Flops? Really?

[theguncrank]

I hate flip flops. I hate guys who wear them even more....and if you're wearing them with socks also........

I hate flips-flops, but my wife practically lives in them.

As for socks...

Yeah, I'm that guy.

there is a certain member or past member here who is the year round shorts dude and year round flip flop wearing dude.

He attends practical rifle wearing shorts and flip flops even on rainy days .

he is a PBR drinker it that tells you anything.

I don't care if you wear Wesco (a fine boot company up in Scapoose) storm troopers..



It won't make your Utilikilt look less ghey.

I wear flip flops a lot in the summer, and I carry all the time. I keep a change of clothes and footwear in my trunk. Naturally, any activity that puts me farther than a 15 minute walk to my car also means I'm not wearing flip flops. That's just logistics. Most people aren't hiking cross country in them, after all.

I do want to say that flip flops with socks = no. If you need socks, it's not flip flop weather.


Then again, I'm not a Navy SEAL or CAG. There are certainly more tactical people than me around.

And you are not a tender foot. I wear everything with socks. Sandals, though, not competent or safe feeling, to wear flip-flops, certainly not while working.

My cousin lost a lot of her feet, while mowing the lawn in them.

I wear flip flops almost daily when Im not in uniform, after so much time in boots over the last 18 years my feet need a break.

War stories, 1967, Although we mostly faced the NVA we sometimes came across Viet Cong. They almost always were wearing flip flops made from old tires and rubber straps. The first thing they did was kick off the flops and didi out of the area bare foot. Worked for them.

Shelby the Swamp Man debuts tonight on the History Channel. what a freak.. may God bless the tard and his bare feets..

Tactical flip flops?!! What a joke.
Everyone knows when the SHTF it's Crocs or nothing!

I have never owned flip-flops. That has more to do with a size 15 foot than anything. Though they are for the trip to and from the shower, or at the beach, I don't really care what footwear others choose. I think my comfort with them(assuming I ever found a pair large enough) would end on my porch. I personally don't believe short pants belong on grown men in public, but I have no problem with anyone that wears them. To each their own.

Flip flops are really a west coast thing. I rarely saw anybody back in Michigan wearing them, and even less frequently seeing a man wearing them.

Having been in some less than ideal situations back home, I personally don't leave the second floor of my place without wearing something that I can run in.

Hawaiian tactical slippers.

 

[DoubleTapDrew]

At least they are more aesthetically tolerable than those hideous vibram five fingers

She shouldn't have been mowing anyway, with her lack of skills-she backed the mower over her feet.

Speaking of lawnmowers.
My next door neighbor sharpened his lawn mower blade and forgot to tighten down the two bolts after replacing them finger tight.
One of them sheared loose and the blade spun on the remaining bolt while running full throttle, which resulted in the mower thrashing itself to pieces.
My wife saw it happen and she said that the mower started jumping around and pieces were flying off of it.
The blade finally broke free and in the process, it took off the right front wheel and lodge itself in a fence post.
It was a small miracle it didn't take his feet of at the ankles.

You know you're old when...

 

[nick1980]

I wear flip flops basically everyday in summer

I wore flip-flops today while carrying my .380 in my pocket at the grocery store. Does this mean that my 20-hour course on Comprehensive Armed Defense is now invalid? Have you revoked my man-card, thus invalidating my 20 years of experience in the field?

You must be an awesome ninja. My humble self bows to your sheer awesomeness Sensei.....
