We've just taken delivery of some flip flops (just like TMT sell) but are selling these individually rather than in packs of 10. If anyone fancies testing these then they are available online now at the link below. We've only limited volumes to test the water, so feel free to dip your toes (no puns intended:cool:). Available in child sizes of S,M,L as well as Adult in S,M,L

You don't need a template for these as they come in a square, but each flip flop is already cut out. All you have to do is print a full A4/ A3 page, lay over both the flip flops and press. The image completely covers the flip flop as well as the rest of the square and you pop out each flip flop once printed so you get to cover all of it. Afterwards you then fit in the straps.

There's an idea - don't print anything on them and they're as pure as the driven snow!

If you get them on the wrong feet do they then become Flop-Flips?

I suppose I ought to try some as I haven't worn anything but since moving out here. Trouble is they are so cheap to buy here that I don't know if they would sell. Your feet would cover up the design.....

SNAP

you know what, I just called the missis over and said ............. "hey love, how about some subli flip-flops for the kids" and she asked where the customisation would be on the flip flop, her reply was "what's the point - you can't see it, and you wouldn't show anyone what you've had done afterwards as it'll stick!".

.................? Not sure now, great idea but what would be a selling point to these?

We have had same conversations! Must be popular though as one supplier in UK, I believe, buy these by the container load at a time!

They do sell quite well and we have done loads this summer. Designs and personalisation works well with them. I actually find them a bit "slippery" when wearing them due to the fabric surface instead of rubber.

Nice to see you have the kids sizes as well. Only done adults up until now. Price is a killer for moving volume. This could probably be one of my best lines if I went into it properly and got the retail down.
