If you've ever wished you could leave a set of pawprints in the sand, you're in luck. And all you'll have to sacrifice is your personal comfort.

The Ashiato Animal Flip Flop Footprint, a beach toy for children, lets kids (and adults with kid-sized feet) leave little animal footprints in the sand.

A small note: these shoes are made of wood. They are rectangular. They do not look very comfortable.

However, leaving lizard prints in the sand is too attractive a prospect to dismiss. These flip-flops may be deeply uncomfy, even painful, but they're almost certainly worth it.

Think of the pranks you could pull. Imagine your family believing that a gecko was walking across the beach, when instead it was just you. Good stuff, guys.

The sandals — which, again, are designed for children — are available in cat, monkey, owl, gecko and dinosaur shapes, and are priced at $25.80 a pop.
