Hold Fast straps will let you ride your fixed gear bikes in flip flops

Here is some useful equipment for cyclists who love to pedal in flip flops. The new toe-straps from Hold Fast will let your wear your favorite sandals or flip flops as you speed away on your fixed gear bikes. They’re shaped toe-straps which, and due to some stiffness and a conical shape they don’t need a metal cage to hold them open for easy entry. Since they are a lot wider than ordinary straps, the pressure on the barefoot-top is highly reduced. These unique straps are made by Jeremiah and Rob who are based in Brooklyn.

A great and useful creation, these Hold Fast straps sell for $55 a pair on mail order only.
