Just got a pair of Crocs, i've seen girls slopping around in them and thought i'd give them a go.

They are so light and comfy,anyone heard of them?

Hi Abbey!

I own nine pairs of Crocs! Two Niles, five Caymans, one Beach and my new pair of gold Mary Janes!

These are the best shoes I've ever worn. I have serious foot problems due to being born with clubfeet. I've had two operations and one foot is fused. I have pain every day, to varying degrees. Before Crocs, I walked with a limp, walked painfully enough that others would comment and ask me constantly if I was okay. The Crocs give me support because of the molded footbed and the two arch supports (width and longitudinal) plus they're roomy and they have enough squish to make them like little shock absorbers. :wah: I have a pair of $300 orthopedic shoes that are not as comfy as my Crocs. I love Crocs!!! I won't wear any other shoes unless I have to. These shoes are fab for walking around the mall. I used to not be able to make it without being near tears by the end of my shopping trip but now I can hang tough.

I am hoping they will make a pair of Crocs that are more like oxfords and without the holes so I can wear them in winter. The price is good too. I get mine for about $24-$30 a pair from www.nofeargear.com.

Have you seen the "Jibbitz?" They are little decorations you stick in the top holes of your Crocs!

I sound like an infomercial about Crocs but I really am this impressed and pleased with them!

Plus, I'm a heavy woman and I think the Crocs help my feet in that respect too.

I bought some to wear in the garden and when I get in/out of my hot tub. I love the way they feel, but I hate the way they SOUND when I put wet feet into them.

CROC FARTS might describe it! :wah:

Well, just don't put wet feet into them! :sneaky:

Who hasn't? Crocs are a cross between working boots and Birkenstocks closed toes.

everybody wears them in the south. well round here anyway. i got a stack myself. they are the best shoes to wear out on a boat. keep you cool and protected from any flopping fish. and keeps the boat from getting marked up. :wah:

Bought my stepdaughter in Oz some red ones - not cheap there! I don't fancy them because they remind me of plastic sandals we used to wear as children and when you got sand in them they rubbed your feet raw, and the sand would be really diffucult to get off them.

Haven't seen them in UK.

I found them on t'internet, i just googled Croc's.
