Thingamabob Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Wouldn't wear flip flops under any circumstances. They look pathetic on men, and are bad for the farang's image. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But perhaps you have a good reason or explanation to defend your POV - that you couldn't be bothered to explain?

aussiandrew Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 With all those slippery when wet shiny surface just waiting for me to go arse up the only hope I've got has been to wear scholls slip on's. That when the neighbours dog doesn't get hold of them when I am visiting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lokie Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Scholl Biomechanics (makes you walk correctly) Bean Sandals in brown (leather upper manmade sole) look smart and really comfortable around 1900 Bhat, got mine two years ago from Robinsons, so happy with them and they are still going strong that I bought another exact same pair but in black (for best) I am currently debating getting some Birkenstock Ramases premium as I like the look of them but don't really need them... I do not put my feet in any crappy cheap flip flop or knock off trainer as it is your health. Trainers I use asiacs they are like slippers and have sturdy Nike tennis shoe for anything needing stronger support. have also a pair of what my mate describes as Mick Dundees lol, an old pair of Clarkes (from UK) slip ons in tan but so comfy are my weapon of choice but alas are about 4 years old now and starting to show it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any recommendations on the Asics line, and do you know if they post to Thailand? You can buy them in Silom at the sports store about 20m from Exit 1 access stairs to the BTS on Silom Road. There are also a few Asic Sport Stores around Bangkok. The sport shop associated with Robinson used to sell them as well but I think they phased them out.

I wear Kayanos, but you need to look at the website and get a brand that suits what sport you play and with Asics they recommend different models for different weight ranges and whether you are a short or long distance runner.

They're expensive, but keep my feet in shape and let me go distances I could never do in sandals. Flip flops just not my style except for the pool or the beach.
