Rainbow's on her feet? (Footwear)
Anybody know what type of shoe this is? Apparently a big hit with the sorority women? Image? Anyone?
Thanks. Denise (no clue) :confused::confused::confused: |
It is a flip flop, usually brown.

I really don't think they're anything special. Who wants to pay $40 for a flip flop? |
Thanks. I thought those were for gay pride (not kidding, not meant in a bad way)
Hmm - so they are like Reefs but not as cool. My favorites were the J Crew Critters (pineapple, etc like grograin ribbon flip flops) $40 for flip flops though, yeesh! |
Rainbows are well worth the 40-50 dollars they cost, they are no doubt the best brand out there. Reefs are a little too pacific sunwear for me, plus rainbows are better looking.

Rainbows outlast reefs, look better, and feel extremely comfortable. Havianas are good for flip flops that take abuse. Reefs are for douche bags and fat chicks.

I must agree with Rudey, I specifically bought reefs as 'shower flops' (I didnt want me feet touching the floors in the communal dorm showers.....gross :eek:) so they were basically my cheap, crappy flops and my rainbows are my everyday wear, either that, a nice pair of Topsiders, or my favorite but least worn shoes, the Cole Haan Driving shoe...absolutely amazing, its like walking on air, they dont get much better.

If you go to the surfer shops in Southern Calif., there are walls covered in all kinds of flip flops. When I was in college, I bought a pair of Reefs, because that's what everyone had. That was 10 years ago, and I still have those flip flops! They're the best pair of footwear I've ever had!!! :D
I just bought some really cute Sanuk flip flops on my recent trip to CA, plus these Kustom ones (but in tourquise): http://americansole.com/images/imagecacheMarla-Brn.jpg |
My Sanuk's are my all time favorites!!!! They're sooooo comfy. :D
|
I wear my Rainbows almost every day. They go with everything...well worth the $40.
|
I've heard that rainbows are REALLLLLLLLY comfortable. Apparently, they eventually form to fit the shape of your foot.
I've wanted a pair for a really long time, but I have flat feet and they have an arch in the middle. I have always wondered if the arch would go away after I had worn them for a while. They became really popular while I was in high school. They were THE flip flops to have. |
Okay I'm showing my age here, but are Rainbows to today's college kids what Birkenstock's were to mine (early/mid 90s). Basically expensive but indistructible sandals that mold to your feet that you never want to take off even though they look like crap?

I think Rainbows are cuter than Birkenstocks.
Personally I never wear flipflops although my D has way too many pairs to count. I find it uncomfortable to have something between my toes. |
im no racist by anymeans but wat is it with white girls and flip flops

Those are really cute. Much better than the "Jesus Sandals" Birkenstocks that we used to wear. And those are much cuter than the Rainbows from page 1 (in my opinion).

And anyone who thinks the pair of Rainbows shown on the front page is a particularly attractive shoe isn't really well qualified to disparage the appearance of Birkenstocks. |
So you are saying that all of the millions of people who own Rainbows are lacking in the fashion sense area. I thought that if it was something that people liked and thought looked good, they usually bought them, and as other people thought they looked good, they too invested in such an item. Well I guess the majority of people must be wrong here :rolleyes:

Recently, I've been hearing that black people don't wear flip-flops. WTF?! I know that DMX gave Jay-Z some static for being seen wearing them, but an entire race of people don't wear them at all? That means I have to get rid of my Havaianas! :( |

How can we turn a thread about flip-flops into a racial thing?
How about we stick to the subject (flip-flops) so the thread can stay open? |

I'm suggesting that you guys talk about the shoes instead of which ethnic, racial or religious group wears what.
Why go down that road? |
What had happened was....*sigh*
Somebody can't read (not DeltAlum)! OK, more like poor literary analysis skills....

Some folks like controversy, but that's on them. I like flip flops, and so do millions of others. No racism on my part. |

When I first read it, I construed the "Nice comeback" as sarcastic. Then, as I thought about it, I figured out that you were being sincere. Especially since that omegaland has proved to have the posting ability of a 5 year old. But I do see how people got confused. When you quote someone, and then mention putting someone on ignore, it's assumed that it's directed at whomever you quoted, unless otherwise clarifed. In short (I know, too late), I read it and could see how it could have been taken both ways. |
