I just bought a pair of these sfter Cobras glowing report.

First ride report:
Very grippy, holds in well on a steep face.
Deck not as comfortable as my Havaianas but I deliberately chose the thinnest specs as I like a sensitive ride.

Construction looks first first class.
Very happy after the first outing and looking forward to many more hours of use.




haven't seen that style. Looks good thomo ,but I will stick with mine

Same! ....

Remember, we need 1 minute of your time, to step out of your thongs, and capture a cool picture of them, with an interesting backdrop...

from the house of Cobra




here we go folks a once in a lifetime offer never to be seen again


the comprete range of Frongs from the house of Cobra.

starting on the left,, the Xmas gift thong (because wife was sick of my yellow thong collection)

next the Crocs MKll thong these babies are like a new board you just want'a look at them.

then the rusty thong…. that lasted two weeks….. not sater proof(my staffie)…….. i never found the other thong ………. if found please return

next the Sumatran croc copy thong .dont laugh they lasted two years

then the Clubbie surf patrol thong swopped with nephew for ****y Ripcurl thongs (wife again)

then,never to leave my side original Croc thong circa 2011 complete with solagard paint, timber stain, acrylic render in two Colors. and epoxy resin.
if you observe the photo carefully you'll notice slater proof mmmmmm or slaters like my wife and hates yellow crocs


then last but not least the tragic impulse buy thong from Sumatra….. when buying size 11thongs in sumatra you can't afford to be colour fussy.

Thongs are like leashes. An unneeded accessory

A man should be judged on the hotness of the concrete or the sharpness of the rocks he can walk on.

Thongs have one use. finishing concrete..

Bare feet all the way.

Cobra, those clubbie ones look like they have been used as a chew toy.

Can I borrow your dog ??

There's heaps of clubbie stuff at my local he can go to town on.

Took my thongs out for a spin last night and it ended in a disaster. Now I just need to find a Target or a Hot Buttered store this morning. Timely thread

$80 ones ? I tried some on the Hurley store in Manly on the Corso this morning. Seems a lot for a pair of thongs - do they last?

I've seen them for 60 twice the price of Havies but as I said earlier last 3 times and 1000 times more comfortable.

I get around a year out if them. As Macaha said you can find them cheaper if you look around.

Most comfortable pair of flip flops I've ever owned and would never buy something else.
