My Dad used a light leather bedroom slipper (not too bad), then a light leather sandal (wicked!). My best friend showed me the florid Carpet slipper he was subjected to with a fat composite sole (Horrid I can imagine). Then on holiday (age 12) my Uncle introduced me quite rightly to the espadrille, a canvas shoe with a rope sole (bare butt) at least equal to any pe plimsoll delivered at school.
