Slides or sliders are a type of light shoe that are characterized by having a loose heel that holds on to the foot from the front. Like [[flip-flops]], they are typically employed in casual situations, in addition to being a unisex footwear worn by both sexes. Sliders are distinguished from flip-flops by their vamp strap which does not separate the big toe from the rest of the toes. (From "Wikipedia":[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slide_(footwear)])

Compared to [[slippers]] which are indoors, slides are often used outdoors.
