BLACKBURN AND SWEETZER

In the back of my mind, I’m always looking for these flip-flops that I remember my parents wearing when I was just a wee bit - rubber-soled, with fabric straps and a woven, bamboo foot-bed. And here they are! Except that these flops - $30 from Parke & Ronen, and in a myriad of hues, from sunny orange or red to olive, gray, black, brown, or navy - are not for me, but my husband or some other dude who wants me to covet his comfy, cushioned tootsies.
