More (Rubber) Jandals cause

1. More beach = feet get wet = no problem
2. More rain = feet get wet = no problem
3. More humid = feet get wet (and smelly in shoes) = no problem

Wellington - it is the closest thing to Dunedin, which is the coolest city in NZ.

1. There are more feet in Auckland, so it immediately gives the appearance that more wear jandals.

2. And probably a greater proportion do wear them in (Auckland and further North) due to the warmer and more humid climate.
