The Wikipedia has the following information about this codepoint:
Flip-flops are a type of light sandal-like shoe, typically worn as a form of casual footwear. They consist of a flat sole held loosely on the foot by a Y-shaped strap known as a toe thong that passes between the first and second toes and around both sides of the foot. This style of footwear has been worn by people of many cultures throughout the world, originating as early as the ancient Egyptians in 1500 BC. In the United States the modern flip-flop may have had its design taken from the traditional Japanese zΕri after World War II, as soldiers brought them back from Japan.
Flip-flops became a prominent unisex summer footwear starting in the 1960s.
