We just ride in the comfy seats of our toe trucks 'round these parts. However, we allow VIPs to sit atop the big toe during parades and such. I don't want to sound like a toe-it-all, but even if I found $50, I'd still be out a few bucks on the toe charge. My last pedi cost me $75. Yeah, it stinks, but my insurance won't cover toes.
Is there a town near you named Lincoln, or are you just making fun of our 16th POTUS? (perhaps it should be TOE-TUS)
I have footwear similar to your picture, but to me, they pass as "flip shoes". I wear them in hot weather(with socks, like in your picture).
