Girls Don’t Understand Bottle Openers

By Rocky Thompson on August 10th, 2006

The Reef Spring ’07 line includes a Fanning-for-the-girls, a credit card holding flip-flop called the Stash. These flip-flops have a retractable wax comb that pulls out at the heel. The wax comb acts as a drawer that’s sized to carry a credit card or some folded bills.

Initially I thought it was a little insulting toward women when one of the reps said, “Girls just don’t get the whole bottle-opener thing.” You see, I thought he meant that women don’t understand how to use bottle openers, but he really meant that women don’t want to open something they’re going to drink with something they walk on. Instead they can just run a tab at the bar with the credit card stashed in their sandals while guys drink beer that’s been warming up on the beach all day.

You won’t have to worry about people stealing your wallet stuffed with temporary tattoos, but you don’t want them to get your ArchPort shoes. The ArchPort shoes come with a relatively large compartment in the sole for your cash, credit cards, hotel keys, and decoder rings. The soles are about two inches thick, so they’ll make you a little taller, too. If you want to carry a couple things and not look like you have doctor-issued shoes, check out the Reef Stash. [...]
