Overview
Let's give back to the plastic sandal the place it deserves in the humanity shoes Pantheon. If nobody has forgotten the nightmare it was wearing it every summer, who knows its true story? Who did wonder about the extraordinary destiny of this plastic bead invented by accident? Who remembers that after being created in Auvergne, it went through exile, privations and wars? Who knows that it embodied a society ideal and the promises of a better world? Who could imagine that it would be involved in one of the greatest pages of the 20th century History, until becoming the icon of an entire population? It is time to look back on the dark and glory times of the plastic sandal.
