Flip-flops for Kyoto in May
Verdict
Optional
Warm enough to wear in the evening or on the beach; not on a city walking day.
Why
Kyoto in May averages highs of 77°F, lows of 58°F, 10 rainy days.
That climate makes flip-flops a judgment call. Warm enough to wear in the evening or on the beach; not on a city walking day.
