Flip & Flop

Day 8 of Sumbawa moto-trip (905km behind): Now it'll be a bit sensitive subject where many would strongly object my passion to climb all mountains and volcanos in flipflops (if temperatures allow that, of course).

Here are my reasons for that:
👉 It's not hot and my feet do not sweat, so no blisters
👉 If it rains or there is a lot of wet grass, the feet get dry quicker and no moisture is accumulated in footwear
👉 If sand or small stones enter flipflops - they leave immediately and there is no need to unlace and shake them off
👉 Flipflops are much lighter than any hiking footwear, so no need to carry extra weight to the mountain and back
👉 And the most important - the muscles that keep ankles stable get proper training without relying on hiking shoes support (no atrophy)Okumaya devam et
