That is what I do.
Welcome to Cruise Critic.
Are you aware of the ACT Cruisers monthly meet ups? A socially active group of people with experience and information on cruising while having a drink.
Like I said, it is just a brand, Aussie made and mainly sold in Darwin or online,
Archie's are similar, but I don't think they are as good.
Most thongs are cheap and flat, no arch support or grip.
