It's a tough one to call this category 'sandals'. The reason why? They are called something different everywhere. We are referring to footwear that is open, and held by straps across the top of the foot. Just in case you are still confused, check the list;

• Australia: Thongs
• United Kingdom: Flip Flops
• USA: Sandals
• New Zealand: Jandals

This type of footwear is definately for people who like the open feeling of going barefoot, but want some protection when they are walking around.

Want something a little different to the sandals here on offer? Why not take a look at the surf shoes pages. There are plenty of slip-ons and soft shoes that are a decent alternative. With quality makes like Globe, Rip Curl, Reef, Quiksilver and Vans, you are sure to find something you like!
