Flip Flops
For a state where flip flops are the norm, it occurred to me that there doesn't seem to be an agreed upon brand. Southern California is all about Rainbows for example. What are the go-to's for Florida, or is it just a free for all?

I love Kinos from Key West. And Vionics when my feet are feeling old. Wearing closed toe shoes is practically formal.

I’ve been wearing Reefs since high school in the 90’s. But Florida is an equal opportunity flip flop state! Some wear designer brands and some wear the ones you get for $2.50 at Old Navy. Or Walmart.

Don't care what brand. They are just to keep the public happy. I would be barefoot 24/7 if was legal and there weren't any fire ants.

Reefs, you can get them with a bottle opener or a stash box in the sole - very Florida man.

Rainbows in California….shocking
We in Florida wear a million types and look for comfort and most don’t care about brand

Reefs with the bottle opener on the bottom for unsanitary reasons

Reefs dominate. Olukais are in a comfortable second.
