Being a Nation of Thong lovers, (yep, we call call flip flops, thongs and Thongs, G Bangers - What do you call them in the US?) we should be sending our expertise UK bound after the latest report. We learn to wear the humble thong straight out of the womb down here. VB, zinc and thongs are given away in care packages for every new born.

INJURIES caused by wearing flip flops cost the UK's National Health Service about £40 million ($70 million) every year. The Independent said about 200,000 people see their doctors or end up in a hospital as a result of walking in the footwear.
Wearing flip flops over a prolonged period can increase the risk of developing shin splints and joint pains, according to chiropodists.
The design of the footwear changes the way a person walks by putting pressure on the outside of their foot rather than the heel.
Flip flops (also known as thongs in Australia) are believed to have originated in Ancient Egypt about 4000 BC.

The oldest surviving pair, from 1500 BC, is on display in the British Museum.
Materials used to make flip-flops have changed over time from papyrus, palm leaves and straw to plastic and rubber.

I reckon its people trying to run before they can walk.
 

My mom calls them thongs occasionally. I just got a new pair that are flat when you first get them so after a while they form to your feet to make it more comfortable. This is it:

In the FIRST WORLD , lids , Thongs are things that get stuck in the crack of birds - an' Goat's , arses .

Flip-flops are he above item .

We always break our necks in them , 'cause we uny have 3 days a year when the climate allows them being adorned .
 

The onomatopoeic sound of a person walking in them is the most irritating noise in the world, it saddens me that there's a thread dedicated to them.

Toes should never be seen in public, they make me feel sick.
 
Just to clarify, I don't call them thongs, I call them sandals. And Chico is right, they are ace.
