footflower or barefoot sandal

Flip-Flop-Footflower, a.k.a. The Barefoot Sandal

I saw something like this at a Rennaisance Fair, thought it was one of the coolest ideas I had ever seen, and tried my hand at making one.  I think it turned out well.  It is reasonably comfortable, and doesn't really impair one's movement.
