Summertime often involves wearing flip flops, which are popular among many people, including Ukrainians. However, it is not uncommon for the sole to crack, causing the strap that holds the foot in place to come off. If you find yourself in such an uncomfortable situation in the middle of the street, don't worry - UAportal has prepared a quick life hack that will help you quickly fix your shoes.

If you find yourself barefoot because of broken flip flops, you can find a solution at any nearby kiosk or store. The secret ingredient is a carbonated drink.

Here's what you need to do

1. Buy a can of carbonated drink.

2. Remove the tab from the can, which serves as an improvised tool.

3. Thread the strap of your sandals through one of the rings on the tab.

4. Turn the ring to the opposite side of the crack.

Please note that this improvised repair may not be enough for the entire summer season. However, it will be enough to get you home safely.
