Till Flip - flop Desperado
This sandal is known by different names in different localities:
- In New Zealand English they are known generically as jandals (Japanese Sandals), a name used by one manufacturer. However intellectual property law prevented the term Jandals being used when sold in other countries.
- In Australian English these are known as thongs, flip-flops, or pluggers, and often are considered an Australian icon.
- In Indonesia, they are known as sandal jepit (or sometimes sendal jepit).
- In the United States, they are generally known as flip-flops, thongs, and beach walkers
- In Hawaii, flip-flops are known as slippers.
- In Brazil, they are known as sandálias and sometimes havaianas
- In South Africa they are also known as slops.
- In Argentina they are known as ojotas.
- In Poland they are known same as in New Zealand - Japonki (Japanese Sandals).
Min fråga till Desperado - är det skon, eller det som är i, eller den som är i som är viktigast?
Som vetenskapsman försöker jag bara söka svar på relevanta frågeställningar. Jag håller med om att det är snyggt men - varför?
