And I think we all know what flip-flops look like.
For the longest time, I found flip-flops to be the greatest shoe for us foot guys for viewing girls' feet. I still think they're great, but now I'm really starting to like the flat sandals. They expose about as much as the feet as flip-flops, but their ankle straps make them more secure to the foot, making them easier to move around in. Plus, they look a bit more elegant (is that the word?).
And maybe it's just me or my area (Detroit), but I'm starting to see more women wear those sandals nowadays than flip-flops.
So I'm gonna cast my vote for the flat sandals.

Flip flops for me - but the sandals aren't bad. Still, you won't get the same kind of dangling and other things with sandals as you do with flip flops, since they are secure you won't see them being slipped off very often at all, unlike flip flops.

They are both sexy. I'm noticing the sandals being more common now, but I think flip flops will always be superior. Plus if you can't see a thing just hearing the sound of flip flops gets you excited.

The thong sandals look a bit more classy, such as the ones you linked to, but the flip flop allow a peek at a woman's soft beautiful arch. Thank goodness for good weather now, I can go bonkers every 15 seconds over sandals or flip flops.

I must agree that flip-flops do offer some nice dangling opportunities, and plus it's easier to see the woman's soles when she's sitting in front of you.
But there's just something about those sandals...

Also true, but there's also the risk of a guy wearing them, since unlike those sandals, flip-flops tend to be unisex depending on their design.

Buddy you were RIGHT down my alley with this post! Some awesome photos.
Though I cannot honestly choose between the two, I voted for the flat, thong sandals. But I'm also a huge flip-flop fan especially if they have really thin straps.
Don't know that it's actually the case but I think the sandals do look a bit more formal/dressier. Maybe not much, but some.
I actually discussed the difference between the two with my wife a short time ago. She wears dressier sandals without a back strap to work and flip-flops nights and weekends. She said that the biggest difference she notices when wearing a flat thong with a back strap is that it holds the sandal sole to the bottom of your foot all the time, unlike a flip-flop which loses contact with the sole every step, making you very cognizant of the sandal on your foot. You're very conscious of wearing them. She said in a way she finds wearing them somewhat arousing because she can feel them on her feet and at the same time know she's showing them off with barely there footwear. (btw- don't tell her I told you this or she'll kill me)

Thong Sandals are pretty common these days, I'm not a huge fan though. Sometimes they are nice..but I still prefer the flip flops myself!
