jandals
Beach footwear, rubber
Jandals are rubber sandals with a V-shaped strap that passes between the big toe and second toe—what Americans call flip-flops and Australians call thongs.
The word is primarily New Zealand English: I forgot my jandals at the beach.
The name likely comes from "Japanese sandals."
