'plugger / pluggers' meaning
2 definitions
Outback Bazza
Traditional name for flip flops, or thongs – not the underwear, but the rubber types of sandel like shoes that are worn on the feet. Comes from the “plug” that exists that keeps the shoes together, where the parts that go over the toes and feet plug into the flat base.
Example: I'll come down to the beach aye, let me just grab my pluggers and then we can head off.
