My crocs order with fatshoes has been cancelled as they cannot get hold of any.
Where else can I get them from.
And no nasty comments from te croc haters I am NOT going to change my mind.

i know exactly how you feel, I pinned my hopes on crocs but they dont fit me (4's too big 3's too small) and I really wanted some

ProfYaffle · 01/05/2007 15:11

lookatmycrazyshoes.com are taking pre-orders for Caymans in Khaki, although not sure when that means the orders will be fulfilled.

If you can wait a couple of weeks get them from www.taylorshoes.com. I paid about £60 for three pairs including postage so it won't be expensive.

NotanOtter · 01/05/2007 17:53

going for 3 I ordered with Taylorshoes as well FABULOUS service!

They are good. I ordered the wrong size and luckily noticed before they posted them and they alterted the order without any problem. I will definatley buy them from there again, the range of colours is fab too! I am very sad

Enid · 01/05/2007 17:57

cosikids dont have them either

have been wating 3 weeks for the dds

NotanOtter · 01/05/2007 17:58

i paid £97 for five pairs inc postage! Check out lovely bab on my profile in his!

Flamesparrow · 01/05/2007 18:02

NAO - what sort of sizing do I need for baby ones... DS is a 4 1/2 G in clarks.

NotanOtter · 01/05/2007 18:03

Flame -i bought ds the smallest size they do ( he is 4 ish) they are a bit big but just about ok!

Enid · 01/05/2007 18:04

how long do they take with taylorhoes.com?

NotanOtter · 01/05/2007 18:06

they said up to 21 days BUT mine took 10 I think

bundle · 01/05/2007 18:06

enid, peacocks, £3 each for non-croc crocs, they're virtually identical I kid ye not

NotanOtter · 01/05/2007 18:07

They are fab i have recommended them to a few friends plus the jibbitz are only $1.50!

IlanaK · 01/05/2007 18:08

I had the same problem with fatshoesday (and posted about this last week on here too warning people) and ended up getting them from Lookatmycrazyshoes.com

They have the same supply issues as everywhere else, but at least are honest about it. If it says pre-order on their site, they know they have stock coming in in the next few weeks. If it says out of stock, they have none coming in. I have some on preorder from there in khaki as well.

If you are desperate for them NOW (as I was for my 5 year old when we were let down by fatshoesday), i would google the style size and colour you want. Make sure you click UK sites only. Then phone the ones that come up. I was able to find the right ones for my son that way as we needed them right away. The rest I ordered from lookatmycrazyshoes as I was willing to wait.

You may also have some luck on ebay. I am selling a new pair on their and noticed there are many others.

HTH

Flamesparrow · 01/05/2007 18:12

Will go for that then

I'm wary of non-croc crocs in case they aren't as comfy.

ShinyHappyPeopleHoldingHands · 01/05/2007 18:13

Why not just buy the cheapy £3.99 from Peacocks? Or is this an offensive suggestion..? (never know on Mumsnet...)

ShinyHappyPeopleHoldingHands · 01/05/2007 18:14

Ah I see your comment below now Flamey. They FEEL jsut as comfy from trying both versions on..

Flamesparrow · 01/05/2007 18:16

If they were for me then I'd risk it, but where it is for Flameboy and the Chick I would feel horrible if I broke their little feet.
