Not something I would go out in public in however.

    Plastic sandals were launched here in the 1950's as I recall. It was a bit of a novelty to wear them while swimming in our local kiddies pool but my abiding memory is of the heavily grooved soles which acted as dog- sh!t magnets and were impossible to clean out !!
