Aussie grass thongs ‘taking off all over the world’
Do you want lush green lawn under your feet but just can’t be bothered watering and mowing your grass? Then a local inventor might just have the remedy heading into summer.
Yashin Radhakrishnan, of Bensville, is an industrial designer by day, but moonlights as the owner of KUSA Flip Flops – a company that makes thongs covered in artificial grass.
The design screams Australian summer, and only deviates from real thing in that it doesn’t pierce your foot with bindiis.
“We were doing a project at work that was using AstroTurf and someone said, ‘we should carpet the whole office in this – it’d be awesome’,” Mr Radhakrishnan said. “That idea led me to buy a pair of cheap thongs and glued some AstroTurf over the top.
“I was walking around at work and on public transport with them and people would stare at me and start talking to me – it was a real conversation starter.”
