In the summer my garden shoes are the cheapest children's black canvas gym shoes. P and I are both of southern descent but he calls them plimsolls and I call them daps. He didn't understand what daps were.

Anyone else know what daps are?

I think it may have come from he name Dunlop Athletic Plimsolls.
