...to wear Flossys?

[ZeldaUpNorth]

Just did a search on this and can't see any threads about them. They are the new craze here (north east)

My neighbour has just been abroad and brought me and my dd's a pair each back and i have to say i love them. They are just black ones so go with anything. What do you think? Chavvy? Comfy? Stylish? Will be back later as bathing the dd's.

My Nan lives in these.

I lurve my flossys - I have red, black, white and navy

They are your nans slippers. You go outside in them? They make crocs look like manolos.

Penis i won't hear a bad word said about my crocs

Meant to add, I am normally the last person to follow a 'craze' but I couldn't resist.

UGly shoes. Why?

Penis beat me to it

They look like cheap slippers from a market stall.

I love my crocs. I draw the line at nans slippers though!

So is the craze n not widespread? Up here everyone wears them. Though surprisiingly not my Nan.

they are very popular down here in the SE too

Everyone here wears them!

They look like those Chinese slippers everyone wore in the 80s. Except they only came in black.

God no how vile!

Definitely granny's comfy shoe or nan's slippers.
Hideous.

Quenelle, I think that's what they are based on. Don't knock 'em til you've tried 'em.

There are at least 3 shops in out city centre dedicated to just these shoes.

So, that's what everyone's wearing. Hideous...

What's wrong with them? I seem to remember them from a few decades ago. UANBU

Are they comfy? Seen a load of shops selling them (in North East) and its just occurred to me that they might be good for my uber fat pregnancy feet. I'm already in a size 8, figure in these I could just get a Mans 9?

Oh I didn't realize they were a trend! I like them and have a couple of pairs, they're more like kids school plimsolls than slippers I got them because every other person in town is in Toms.

Ahh, that's what DD was talking about.

She's staying with her Nana this week (in the NE) and had said her Nana had bought her two pairs of floppsies.

Now I know what they are.

They're a bit like espadrilles.

Now I'm going to have to get some different brand shoes
