I haven't seen a post, or anything in 'Magnum Gear', about the thongs, Magnum wore! I believe they ate,'Scott Hawaii', brand thongs! The company is in Hawaii, and you can order them on-line! Just Google, Scott Hawaii, and I think you will be happy! Check-out the;'Hokulea', or the 'Kamuela', both come with blue straps! The 'Milo' looks good also, only has black straps! Aloha

I'm sure this post got a lot of clicks by the female members!

I always thought "thongs" (for flip-flops) was an Australianism.

Have you checked that these were the same in all or most episodes?

Yes; If you check it out, He always seems to be wearing the black thongs, with the blue cloth strap! I bought a pair of these in the 80's at Nordstroms! They aren't sold in Oregon anymore, but I have bought them on-line! Styles have changed, but they still look like the ones on the show! Aloha

I'm in my 50's, and we've called them thongs, as long as I can remember!

In the episode, 'Professor Jonathan Higgins', Magnum is wearing the thongs when he goes out to get the mail, and finds out he won a prize in the pizza contest!

Come on man, Magnum doesn't own a thong collection and he's never worn one!

But seriously, good question. I don't know!

Maybe I should have said, 'go aheads', that's what my Dad called them!

Are we talking about underwear or flipflops?

When I wrote this post, it never occured to me, that all you guys would think about is Magnum in a thong! Why is that? Thongs are what you put on your feet! Do you guys always dream about Magnum in his underwear?

Only sometimes...not that there's anything wrong with that

More than you ever wanted to know about "flip-flops, zoris, Hawaii chappal, thongs, Japanese sandals, or jandals" is, of course on Wikipedia.

Finding good flipflops is difficult. Might try ordering a pair of these.

I am positive these are the thongs Magnum wore on the show! I am even in touch with 'Scott Hawaii', and they are checking to make sure! I still have 2 pair I bought several years ago. You won't be sorry! Just check out the episode I mentioned earlier, you'll see! Aloha
