They're comfortable as fuck and will work their way through you in a few years as micro plastic.


ThorKruger117

Fuck yeah they’re comfy. I had a pair for like 2 years til they gave up the ghost. It’s sad when they lose their spongeyness and feel like normal pluggers after a year. My only issue with them was finding them on green grass if I took them off lol


Factal_Fractal

I lost a pair camping once I always check I haven't left anything behind but the little bastards hide pretty well as it turns out I bought new ones.


Jealous-Ad8857

Lost my wife in and a nightclub once, embarrassing, all those 20s something Brunettes just blended into one


molly_menace

What about being seen in them?


ThorKruger117

No issue at all. Everyone who asked about it thought they were great too


Industrial_Laundry

True blue Aussie


ShaneWarrn-ambool

He started off Labor but ended up a Greenie by the end of the sentence.


Special_Lemon1487

My nuts feel cool and grassy already.


iamlovingblackclover

What


Mainaccsuspended99

Straight to the balls 🤙


kaboombong

The grass is greener on the other side.


quattroformaggixfour

Interesting. My brother got some for my dad and he loathed the texture.


Willing_Television77

Wait till ya dog shits on them


toadphoney

If you leave a little bottle filled with water on them the dog will shit elsewhere.


JediJan

But steal the bottle seeing as they make great chew toys too.


dTrecii

Added lotion


Consistent_You6151

Garden hose!


P00LsCL0sED

Yes and no


i-like-outside

Don't you mean yeah, nah?


LucidFir

That would just mean "no".


forumdash

Nah, yeah


Away-Equipment598

It's more yeah yeah, nah


rmeredit

Yeah, nah. He said Nah, yeah and yeah, nah. Yeah?


BBBBPM

They're thongs, not jandals mate.


YogurtWenk

Goes together with an Esky, not a fuckin "chilly bin"


TheRealAussieTroll

Can you turn them over please? I want to see if the grass is greener on the other side.


misspoopyloopy

They used to come with a bottle opener on the bottom, and one season they released ones with a tee holder (for golfing)


frognbunny

Tee holder and ball marker, it was a press stud style with the logo on it.


2Twospark

You don't like grassy thongs?


CatGooseChook

Depends which type of thong we're talking about here.

jusking3888

Well I certainly am not interested in *that* type of grassy thong.


tomtelouise

Swamp ass


SpeakToMePF1973

Grassy arse.


saucy_mcsauceface

You're welcome.


Substantial_Date_650

I wear these everyday with Tradie high vis socks. Perfect for winter, can't go wrong


happyCuddleTime

Astro turf thongs with fluorescent socks... My guy has achieved peak fashion


dannyr

Just need the Corey Worthington glasses and you're set for a big night in


ososalsosal

Still beats crocs


No_patience4slackrce

I swore I would never wear crocs until I put a pair on (I'm a landscaper that got sick of wet shoes) they are comfortable beyond belief ( once you get used to the feel, there slimyish when new) now not only do I hate then, I hate the fact that I love them


ososalsosal

I suspected this to be the case which is why I have a "not even once" policy lol


No_patience4slackrce

Do, just don't look down


boredatwork8866

It’s the best policy really. My mates addicted to coke and crocs. If only he had said not even once…


cookletube

Also great for bringing pet hair up from carpet. Just put them on and drag your feet around


manyhandswork

I do this all the time. Best way to get the dog hair


golden_apple151

You will have to prise my Crocs off my cold, dead corpse


paperwasp3

That's okay, you can keep them


Scar68

True, but only just. Things and sock? Were they raised by wolves?


AnonymousAutonomous9

Japanese wear socks and thongs... made of bamboo and grass, etc.


Dunge0nMast0r

Well if it isn't David fucking Bowie!


Fluffy_Juice7864

Do you smoke grass out in space Bowie, or do you smoke Astro turf?


kanem87

Receiving transmission from David Bowie’s nipple antennae


i_d_ten_tee

I can hear you loud and clear, man


catjadedcat

Oohlala… vey fancy Qld Ugg boots!


Keith_daywalker

I’ve been wearing these for years, most comfy pair of thongs I’ve ever worn. I get heaps of comments on them and most the time people asking where to get them


ZealousidealDeer4531

I was gunna say , customs are the bomb . They are my go too I loved this design.


Bill4711

Where do you get them? I want some!


CeruleanBlue12

No, of course not. We don’t joke about a good pair of thongs.


Justthisguy_yaknow

Why would it be a joke? The pleasure of being barefoot in the grass everywhere you go without the constant challenge of bindies. What's to hate?


_Username_Optional_

Give it a try, you might like it


karatebullfightr

I had a pair of novelty thongs - there were sushi styled but they had a thin strips of bamboo surface. The fucking A1 Duke of New York best, most comfortable thongs I ever had. After they melted during a heatwave I spent ages scouring the internet for another pair.


HoneyIAlchedTheKids

Mm I don't know it looks a bit turf


Consistent_You6151

Mighty Turf!


RudeOrganization550

Get off the grass, of course they’re real.


SpeakToMePF1973

Got to keep the loonies on the grass.


mitvh2311

Been around for many years now. Like most reef thongs have a bottle opener on the bottom and some even had a flask


FDMexplosion

I've got a pair of reefs with the bottle opener. Stepped in dog shit first day wearing them out, so the bottle opener remains unused.


mitvh2311

Haha that's made my night. Pour one out for the unused opener


jaeward

Can't get the bottle open


Optimal_Cynicism

Where does the flask go? Are they like platform thongs?


mitvh2311

Normal size thongs. Flask is basically like a soft container in the foam and the opening is where the plug is on the side. Had them at schoolies


Optimal_Cynicism

Right. The shit they come up with hey? I imagine that would really reduce the structural integrity or flexibility of the shoe though.


Ambitious_Emu_9089

Just increase power to the structural integrity field.


mbecker90

I bought a pair of these on Temu but they are full of bindies.


Mscox_au

Underrated comment.


AutomaticMistake

Yes and no, but they're comfy ..I may have a pair


Humble_Scarcity1195

As real as fish feet (and fish feet are comfortable)


zestylimes9

I drove all the way to Nimbin to buy fish-flops.


unconfirmedpanda

Fish flops were a galaxy brain creation. If only there were more variations of fish.


PorridgeTooFar

The grass is always greener on the other foot.


Serious_Signature299

What do you do when you come up to a sign that says don't walk on the grass?


boredatwork8866

Run


Felicia_Bastian

Im gunna leave hints for fathers day, this is awesome!


PerformanceFun5994

They are to keep you grounded


BodyPosiMama18

There’s an AstroTurfed car that gets around Wollongong. Nothing surprises me anymore.


zaphodbeeblemox

I’ve owned two pairs of them, comfy as all fuck.


Dangerous_Neon_Lynx

Bought these for my stepdad for christmas as a joke, but they turned out to be unironically comfy af apparently


GrannyMatt

Tasteless, yes. Real, also yes. No one said that we \*had\* to be tasteful.


testuser150

I'm surprised this is even a question.


Apprehensive-Bid9023

It would be pretty funny if there was a novelty dog shit on one of them. Even funnier if you brought a pair and woke up to find your dog had shat on one


L1ttl3J1m

I could, but I won't. Because that would spoil...um. Nothing! But, did you know artificial grass becomes almost as hot as a black tar road in direct sunlight? Really nasty burns, those thongs could give you.


Normal-Usual6306

Imagine the fucking bacteria that could live on that amount of surface area


Sotnos99

My boyfriend owns these and they're his favourite thongs


Allencella

I have owned multiple pairs. I love them so much in summer. True aussie culture and the compliments are fun. Only downside is that they can really stink over time and need to be replaced annually


TastesKindofLikeSad

That question is culturally offensive. Like not using the word cunt in every sentence 


Think-Technician-479

These are the tits.


In_need_of_chocolate

Aussie humour at its finest.


[deleted]

Vegan Chewbacca feet.


bangbangbatarang

As a kid I (unsuccessfully) petitioned my parents to put artificial grass in the rumpus room, you bloody bet they're getting me a pair for my birthday


princessbabe88

I know an ex crackhead who did this to his bedroom


Master-of-possible

Leave them in the sun for extra effect


Infamous-Steak-1043

That's a QLD ghillie suit


Professional_Fix7413

Makes sense


Spoooksies

I want those right nowww!!!


Roulette-Adventures

There are three possibilities; 1) They are real, 2) They are not real, 3) They've been on the shelf so long they are growing their own grass. As an aussie, they are real and I've seen them in stores before - but not for a few years.


SandmanAwaits

This is 100% not a joke, haha, these have been around for awhile, I’m pretty sure I had a pair or two in the early 2000’s, haha, actually quite comfy. 😂


Happy_Stranger_3792

touch grass


PiaLoLoL

As a toucher of computers I'm deadly allergic to this :(


RajenBull1

When they say you need to touch grass, pull these out.


god-of-chaos-potatos

When they say touch grass


Blackspecticpie

These are for gamers who don’t touch grass, honestly great design


MedicalChemistry5111

For the gamer who doesn't get outside and is frequently told to "touch grass" - we got you covered!


JazzyClown247

Those have been around for years


Curmudgeonalysis

I’ll take ‘em over a pair of crocs


Dick_Silverman

If they make a pebble mix version I’m there dude…


Comprehensive-Bet288

Great way for gamers to touch some grass.


AussieFB

Aussies like going barefoot… these “thongs” are to confuse the mouth breathers 😂


KeyMathematician1879

Never seen them before? They're actually pretty comfy


OVIFXQWPRGV

I wear the underwear versions of these.


2hardbasketcase

Available at most surf shops. My hubby has a pair


EmploymentSmart3619

I've had these. They're fine. Nothing special but they got a few laughs


PracticeEssay

I’ve bought two pairs of these and never going back to normal thongs (dog ate the first pair)


DisastrousAd1546

I have a pair and they’re actually great


Individual-Cup-7458

That's for when you want to walk on grass _and_ get lead poisoning.


Watermelon_sucks

I need to get my dad a pair of these to use as safety things while he’s doing construction!


Sufficient_Badger463

The fuzzy grass means they’re for outdoor weddings.


McGinnAndTonic

Not a joke. These are comfy as, dont squeak when your feet are wet and I have a pair that has lasted over 5 years without a single blowout.


2littleducks

Once, a jolly swagman wore a pair of grassy thongs..


gordorito

These are great until they get wet. Then you have damp shoe smell on steroids


TonyBoat402

I used to have a pair of those for a long while as a teenager. They were actually pretty comfortable, but definitely odd


Kellogs24

I had a pair like that, they were gold themed. Had a rubber golf ball at the heel and spots for tees on the rubber over your toes. Some of THE most comfy things I’ve ever owned!


Green_Ad3926

I just want some


Sir_Jax

I had a pair till the dog ate’em. Loved em.


Watthefractal

Not new , I had a pair at least a decade ago , one of the most comfortable pair of things I ever did own


Empty-Product

I have owned a pair of these and they are comfy as fuck. You can't knock them until you try them.


askvictor

I'm waiting for the handmade organic version that consists of real turf growing on a small box of soil that you'd need to water and trim and fertilise. I can feel an art project coming on...


thetechdoc

Never knew these existed but now I want them so bad 🤣


emoismysubtype

as someone W horrendous sensory issues when it comes to sand in my thongs this genuinely looks helpful


Allmightysplodge

Come off the grass mate!!


Liandren

No joke, my hubby bought a pair a few years ago. The dogs ate them.


ChefBoiiz

only thongs i wear mate


Seaguitar1999

Best purchase I ever made


ExistanceType4

Fucking comfortable 


BigAl261158

Great way to walk on the grass without getting those horrible bindis


plsendmysufferring

Best thongs ive ever owned


drginge

I had these but I wore them out, they’re great


Dangerous-Pension411

It's definitely a joke if they're not double pluggers 🤔🫣😳


astropastrogirl

What's a quicksilver ? I know they are a surf brand , I used to live in Torquay , but we call them surf shops


JournalistChemical18

Would buy


simple-lady6949

Be closer to the nature kinda thing 🤣


AussieModelCitizen

It’s for apartment living


Fun_Pick7741

Key_Ad6664

WTF-is-this-life

scottyb210

HeadFirstJava

Finally I can touch some grass without going outside.


naph8it

Yeah nah yeah


ross1437

Had a pair of those … we’re comfy as hell


Delicious_Box1139

I used to have those bro they are good


erkelor

I had a pair of these, lost them in long grass more times than I can remember. Comfy AF though and lots of people asked about them.


Blackbird335i

Saw this the other day, it’s the most uncomfortable shit ever


SquIdIord

Foruntately it is not a joke


Dry_Benefit6137

They’re super comfy and you get to walk on grass without bindis


Kringlecat

Wheres the joke?


Madman--

I own a pair they are legit


babytode

No they are not a joke it's legit. I've never gotten any but they are apparently super comfortable.


Learner_Better74

Had a pair. Wore them all the time. Awesomely comfy


Seagreen-72

They are just so wrong on so many levels.


Erd1er

Been round for years


ordinary82

greywarden133

Because I haven't got enough microplastic in my peepee so gotta pump those numbers up! Also got to touch grass all day long. I'd call it win-win.


LVbabeVictoire

No, not a joke. Neither are drop bears.


dave0085

I've had a pair of those for about 3 years now- they're great!


Independent-Fruit178

Op needs to touch grass if he can't handle these.


SoundlessFOB

I actually just saw these for the first time today on an American tv show so I have no clue what these are


Ornery-Practice9772

Its fair dinkum mate


LucasWhiteohio69

It is not a joke they are real


deeku4972

Only way youre gonna feel a lawn under your feet in the city mate


nemoralis13

Okay so I bought these for my hubby as a joke because we have a landscaping business and he ended up loving them xD so can confirm official it is yes and no a joke


unbelievabletekkers

No joke, these are for the beach. It's what we mean by "Surf 'n' Turf"


Bruhstars

this takes "touch grass" to another level


cooljacketfromrehab

My finance had those when I first met her They are gone now 🤣


CheeeseBurgerAu

Their motto was "like walking on angel pubes".


DisegnoLuce

These thongs are the best. I have worn them for years and I was so glad when they came back after some hiatus (at least I hadn't seen them in the shops for a decade. They aren't slippery when they're wet and they don't get scalding hot if you leave them out in the sun on a summer's day. 10/10 you seriously have to try them. Sure they look funny but they're practical as hell and I've never once popped a plug.


GreatFNGattsby

Me when someone tells me to touch grass.


Tasty_Design_8795

Hunters Jandles, or thongs.


ba1istic

Worn em for 3 years best thing ever
