as nice as this looks, I have a problem with flip flops (thongs) posing as slip ons (slippers). otherwise this is very well done.

Looks like a rip off of http://www.sandalschurch.com/ to me ... very creative though....

I guess I can see Scottcorgans point. But it's a stretch and yours is ten times better Teeps. Beautiful work!

It looks as if the designer would have used the word sandals instead of slippers if it would not ape the sandals church brand so obviously. Though it is possible that it is not an intentional homage.
the word slippers just weakens the visual...i have never called my flip flops or thongs slippers.

Does anyone call these thongs/sandles/flipflops/jandles slippers?
koodoz said on Apr. 21 '09
^ Heheh, So many names for such a simple thing. Technically I think they can be called everything, even Havaianas is becoming a common name for them. The only name that doesn't really apply (to me) is slippers. As far as I'm concerned, slippers are worn by old people or people with cold feet.
teeps said on Apr. 21 '09
Thanks a lot ....
Defiantly @Koodoz sandles, flip-flops, jandles (thanks to hindmarshdesign never new jandles existed), Havaianas (thanks to you, I have never heard about it) and similarly slippers... And got one new word for it "CHUP-PEL" :-)
M surprised about thongs though.

I think you should rotate the mark >clockwise to make the S more appear more like an S?

I love this logo, very clever! My Dad actually calls thongs slippers so this is quite amusing. He used to live in India so perhaps it's something to do with the culture? :)
logo designer gold coast said on Apr. 23 '09
Nice relaxed feel however not sure the font matches the feel of the icon. Font is Qlassik isn't it?
teeps said on Apr. 25 '09
Thanks for the suggestion motive and thank you @vintage.
Yes the font is Qlassik @ logo designer gold coast; I liked your website (http://www.2creative.com.au/) by the way

Awesome work. Awesome idea. :)

@teeps: Jandles is the term they use in New Zealand. Thongs is the term we use in Australia (the other kind of thong is referred to as a G-String in the land down under :) ) and Havaianas are a really popular Brazilian brand of footwear which everyone in Australia and probably Brazil wears. It's kind of become a household name for thongs, similar to Hoover for Vacuum cleaners and Kleenex for tissues.

teeps said on May. 06 '09
Thank a lot for valuable comments Mr. Ramesh, well this is the first time my logo got featured and if you take a sneak peak to my profile, Men's Skin was the first logo I've designed and that was four years ago... its like learning from experiences and LogoPond is a great site for that required inspiration... just visit this place and you'll figure out for sure
