I wear things accordingly. Flip flops on the beach, because they are practical, you can wash, shake the sand off, viola... I do not wear flip flops to the store, work, or casual runs. I bet 90% of flip floppers here wear solid white New Balances with long white socks under shorts... To me dudes walking in the middle of a mall with flip flops are like "hey let me put a hashtag on my a$$ and see how many hits I get"...
