A recent study has basically said that Flip Flops are evil and will JACK UP your feet!
The Huffington Post is reporting that studies show that "flip-flop wearers tend to grip the footwear with their toes, causing shorter stride length and improper force" and that the "spongy nature and lack of arch support found in many flip-flops causes the feet to roll inward toward each other causing pain and injury to the arch as well as plantar fasciitis." Plantar fasciitis! Ack! I don't want no plantar fasciitis.
Stubbed toes, cuts, bruises, bug bites and dirty feet (dirty feet motherfuckers!) are also more likely amongst wearers. Slips, falls, and sprained ankles are also an unwanted side effect in those of you who wear cheap, comfortable footwear.
Most importantly, the article says, is to wear your flip flops in moderation...what am I? A meth addict? I'll wear whatever the fuck shoes I want, when I want and everyone can go screw themselves!
But bottom line - according to the study and all jokes aside - apparently flip flops will JACK UP your feet! You've been warned you comfort-seeking, flip flop wearing mofos! Wear at your own risk!
