The Reef Dram Sandal: Looks Like a Drunk, Pees Like a Sneaker

This must be the day for bizarre gadgets. We were innocently drawn to the name DRAM Sandal, thinking it had something to do with memory chips and footwear. Little did we know that the “DRAM” is more like a “dram of whiskey,” and that whiskey my friends is served straight from the shoe, or sandal to be exact. YUCK.
Favorite Features Include:
# Cap opens with included exclusive Reef church key/fin key
# Unique shaker icon molded Reef rubber outsole
We Say: being a tech site, we still take these things seriously. Two flaws - standing on your liquor spells leakage up ahead, and then there’s the hot feet/evaporation issue. $44.95 Product Page via Reef

Hey, desperate times call for desperate measures. It’s been a long time since I was able to sneak anything in to a concert. Besides, the alcohol in the whiskey will kill any germs. 80)>

I can see how this would come in handy during a conert. But…
I’m sure the TSA will have a different take on this when you go through airport security. Is it a good thing that there is a sandle that could hide gasoline or some other flammable?

How is it possible that so many can be so pessimistic about such an innovation? Apparently there are no surfers in this crowd, but luckily that’s what this product has been geared toward. Those of us who have come to love the bottle popping Fanning sandle, will be delighted with this concept, as the surf culture is typically less than concerned about a couple of grains of sand in their booze. Toughen up and wean yourselves off of this pill-popping germophobic culture.
