Crocs?

So people either seem to love them or hate them, and I wanted to see what you guys thought about them




Well it breaks my heart to see you this way,
The beauty in life, where's it gone?
And somebody told me you were doing okay,
Somehow I guess they were wrong.

I've really narrow feet, so they wouldn't work for me.

Not that I'm trying to sell them, but they have a few versions that are made for narrow feet. They can be hard to find though :)

I initially didn't really like them all that much, but I didn't loath them like some people seem to. Then I finally bought a pair when I started working at a clinic and I lurve them now.

I have a pair of black ones and a pair of dark blue, which I think look fine when wearing jeans and stuff. I don't wear them to dress up (although they have a pair of high heels now that look fab).

I don't quite get why you would want to wear bright pink ones, but hey, I think it's cool they come in so many colours so people can pick what they like.

The look ridiculous.
On kids, like under 5, they don't look too bad, they're kinda cute.
But on adults, no.

Although, i did try my dads on and they are rather comfy ><



It's so easy to get lost in constantly having to present
whatever face you believe a person wants to see rather than your own

I must admit they'd be handy today, as it's raining, but warm!

Apparently they don't work at all if it's raining because your feet get wet so just slip around inside them all the time.

I personally really don't like them but can see the use for them at work and several of the vets I work with wear them. For several health reasons though, at the moment, I can't wear them even if I like them.

They have a Crocs shop near us!

Children, say, under 5, on the beach, can just about get away with them. & in a work environment I'll accept them (i.e. when I was working at wimbledon one of the other mangers wore them because she got in at 7 every morning & didn't leave 'til gone 9 and was on her feet the whole time), but as a day to day thing? NOOO.




&& then buffy staked edward. the end.

You need an 'I'm not bothered either way' option.

I think they are ok on holiday and on the beach but i wouldnt wear them on an everyday basis. They must be really uncomfortable when hot as they are made of rubber. I wouldnt buy any as i have beach shoes anyway.

Aidey, I've tried them. My mum bought me a white pair for when we go on the boat - non marking & all that.

I kept them on for a whole day, grudgingly, but that night I "miraculously" discovered I had a pair of non-marking trainers, what a SHAME.

They're AWFUL.

Fair enough, for the beach, fine. In fact I'd probably wear them on a beach, but anywhere other than that, they should be melted and made into something else. =]
