Finally, a Canwest News article on Flip-Flops being our natural arch enemy:

Flip-flops, available in a rainbow of colours for as little as a toonie, are the biggest cause of foot problems in the summer, says Vancouver podiatrist Dr. Roy Matthews. "The first thing we say is, 'get out of those flip-flops,'" he said Tuesday. "Flip-flops are meant for going to the beach, going to a pool, going to a barbecue. They're not meant for going for a long walk . . . They're not meant for wearing all day at work. Get a supportive sandal with cork in the arch if you want to wear an open shoe during the summer."

All I can say is, Duh.
