ah yes, and the pattern would transfer to your feet - not because of the sun, but mostly because of sweat and the dust sticking to it.

I can SMELL this picture!

This picture gave me blisters.

And don't forget Candies sandals. Stepping wrong and hitting that molded edge was almost as bad as stepping on a lego.

Jelly shoes! Haven’t thought of them for years.

Jellies! My feet are sweating just thinking about them. I also remember the marks on my feet where the cross-cross design dug in if I wore them too long.

The blisters, so many blisters.

Jelly shoes and there were jelly bags too lol

Yeah. Cut the absolute shît out of my feet. Never got another pair after my left shoe got stuck in the top of an escalator. Scared the absolute tar out of me at 4...

Playing on a playground covered in wood chips while wearing these... So many bloodied toes!

Blisters, weird tan lines, and the smell ( sweaty feet and plastic)!

And flip-flops were called thongs.

JELLIES !!!!

Jellies

Am i the only one that can HEAR this picture?

Sweat saving, foot cutting instruments of torture.

i liked these except in summer when they made our feet sweat

I never used them. I heard from friends that they'd melt onto your foot in hot sun and decided to SKIP that idea entirely.

BEANIE'S !! 😆

With the matching plastic colored bracelets

Dude they are making a comeback

Complete with the imprint on our feet. 🙄🙂

We called them jelly shoes in the UK

jelly shoes!

Wearing them on a really hot day felt like they would melt on your feet.

They look kind of cool, but a nightmare to wear. Like, the tiniest bit of sweat would make them slippery and give you blisters.

My pinkie toe refused to stay inside these.

Love these! They still make a more breathable version. I have some.

I miss jellies! I'm not sure why so many people say they hurt, I thought they were really comfortable. Also, did anyone else on here own a pair of the jellie heels? I had a pair of clear ones that I wore nearly everyday in Highschool

Wore them once, got blisters, never wore them again!!!

Jellies! I knew a girl whose feet were literally deformed because she wore nothing but Jellies. Her foot was pressed into a point with toes crushed under and over each other even when her shoes were off.

It hurts

Jellies! So uncomfortable

My feet hurt just lookin at em
