  5. Holt was obviously caught in a rip and couldn’t get back. News media are always looking for the story where there isn’t one. Rubber thongs have been in Australia since 1959. “In 1959, Dunlop in Australia imported 300,000 pairs of thongs from Japan. They started producing them internally in 1960. As Australia's tourism boomed during the 1950s and 60s, so too did its sartorial image, with thongs taking centre stage as the footwear of choice for an egalitarian, laid-back society.” The American clothing item didn’t come along until the 70s.
