I love this documentary about the life of a flip-flop in Kenya.
Quoted: This beautifully photographed, charming documentary traces the fantastic journey of Africa's most popular shoes: the flip-flop. Easily bought, quickly discarded, for Westerners the flip-flop stands as a symbol of the summer holiday. But in its African homeland, it has a unique life cycle and their story reveals much about Africa¹s economy and culture.

Cool! I do love flip-flops. In India (and I'm sure elsewhere), you can buy and replace just the thong part of the flip-flop in the event someone steps on the back of your sandal and it rips :)
That's awesome! I've broken many beloved flip-flops, and they are so hard to repair. It's nice to know that they aren't completely dispensable.
Thank you for posting this...I watched this on TV a while ago, nice!!! I must say that flip-flops are like Jordan shoes for us...you can't get enough of them until you have all the different styles and colors! Every time I go back home I always go on a shopping spree for flip-flops.
