Those are, (if possible) even uglier than crocs.

I wear em to take out the trash, and even that is emabarrasing. Good for little else! Unless I'm working I live in flips.

Sheldon, is that what you were referring to and who sells em'?

Icon9 I really miss...

I really miss the discontinued Clark's!


I'd wear any dock type shoe instead of Crocs, for my comfort level...


...save for following steel mill rules. Surprisingly, these Converse Metatarsals are comfortable, too!


But, then again, what do I know!?

Got a green pair on as I write! Very comfortable, I have just been to the new crocs store that has just opened in town, they have some great casual designs now including a neat pair of canvas shoes that I might get.

My dad calls them "gay Scandanvian shoes."

I think that is insulting to both gay and Scandanavian persons....

I would rather have a stick stuck in my eye than be forced to wear crocs.

What a croc of s--t they are.

I like Crocs but don't like the holes in them, as I do not want anything (body fluids) to accidently drip on my foot!

I wear Klogs and I have about 6 pairs, I have some regular blue and black, but my favorite color is Blueberry Kreme...wear then all the time.

I use the closed toes version, not the one with the holes. But, well , rules are rules.

I love 'em !


On another note, I read someplace that CROCS INC is broke or going broke.......

Ahh Clarkes, I used to love their shoes until they started to manufacture in the far east instead of street in Somerset, England.

Clarkes used to be so well made when made there,now they are not even a shadow of their former selves..Oh and the price did not drop when they shifted to cheaper manufacturing!

I cannot stand Crocs. I bought my one and only pair 2 years ago, for an upcoming trip to Hawaii. The goal was to wear them only to the beach, not around town. They literally cut the top of my feet. So much for comfort.

I see a lot of little kids wearing them everywhere. I can't imagine that they provide proper support for growing feet.

I wear camo colored crocs so no one can see what I'm wearing. They are comfy and my feet hurt so much.

I'm not touching that one, but the picture it paints ain't pretty.

Anyway, I don't judge those who care to wear these shoes, but they definitely aren't my style and I will never wear them.

I don't even wear shoes...too poor....I had a pair once but they were more hole than shoe.

If you walk around on gravel and concrete enough your feet callous up and there is no need for shooz.

I'm almost there...halfway to Hobbit!!!!
