Soolnds is apparently Strong Sad's preferred term for his peculiar feet. He named them this in his blog entry of August 12th, 2004. The Brothers Chaps mentioned this name again in the DVD commentary for replacement. However, most of the time others refer to them as being kind of like "elephant feet." An overheard phone conversation with Strong Bad in 50 emails has him plotting the sale of these feet for $50, and poachers have offered several thousand dollars for them.

The soles of Strong Sad's soolnds, as seen in a A Decemberween Pageant and in Strong Bad's faux memories of highschool, usually have no visible features. However, in cases where Strong Sad exercises creative control over a toon, more detail is shown:

The imaginary El Pardack sports a soolnd arm, and The Cheat can impersonate Strong Sad's left soolnd so well he has won the Strong Sad Lookalike Contest for every year since 1999.
