The History Of NZ Jandals!

Jandals were first invented by Morris Yock in Auckland New Zealand. Did you know that jandals are made from rubber. " Where does rubber come from? " It comes from a type of rubber tree..and some of the best rubber jandals are from Thailand. " Well where did the name ' Jandals ' come from?" The name jandals came from a japanese sandal. Jandals are a great type of shoe to wear because you can put it in water and it will float..you can also feel the lovely sand as well. Did you know that the jandal strap is in a Y shape but backwards!! Wow jandals are my all time summer shoes. Jandals have many names...flip flops...thongs..thong sandals...slip slaps...pluggers...toesies..zories and of coarse our NZ name JANDALS!!

Yay for summer have awesome safe holidays.

Thanks
