I am a flip-flops fan and love to decorate them. The best flip-flops i have found is the Cariris Flip-flops. It is soooo comfortable... i guess because they are made of rubber is makes it the most comfortable flip-flops ever. Ohter plus, they are not made in China(sorry but i don't like the foam/eva flip-flops from china), it hurts in between the toes. The cariris is made in Brazil.
