solls/souls/soles.

The major requirement to being a wearer of plimsolls, besides fitting that certain either boat-owning or trendiness-owning-up-to-ness, is the ability to tolerate the constant odor of rubber. On and all around your feet. At just about all times. Continual sock washing is a must. Crossing legs in a small room is undesirable by the general populace. Sweaty-footed folks should probably opt for a good sandal, or something that breathes well.

Someday, I should realise that plimsolls are not, in fact, the end all be all sneaker. Or I should own a boat.
