These Feet Form Green Flip Flops are Lined With Fake Blades of Grass
Alyson Wyers — May 15, 2014 — Fashion
If you are in the market for green flip flops, this pair by Hammacher Schlemmer are inspired by nature. The summer sandals are lined with fake green grass that feels like the softest freshly mowed lawn.
The Fescue Flip Flops create the illusion that you are walking on lush, green turf when you could be walking down a busy concrete street in reality. The synthetic blades of grass will form to fit around your feet, making the fine fescue form a matted cushion that feels like you're running barefoot in a rolling meadow. The otherwise rubber green flip flops will withstand high foot traffic and require less water, sun and care than your yard would.
