Crocs

Yes I know they are a style abomination but........bought some on a whim on holiday to use as beach shoes with the intention of getting rid on return home ( ebay probs) but I looooove them. I know they look rubbish but so comfy and massage my foot as I walk. Keep them by back door for popping in and out of garden and wear them around the house. Have even done school run in them! Have navy ones and thought they looked OK with a denimy skirt and white t shirt I had on.

Obviously wouldn't wear on a night out but sorry, I like them and I don't care!

We are a croc family my DH has some really cool ones made from leather. I've got a nasty old pair they are slippers really hardwearing. If you like them who cares what other people think

Yes you are right but am a bit of a fashion follower, though getting less so as I get!

I bought some Croc flipflops a few weeks ago and they are SO comfy, better than any others I have tried by far (including Havaianas). I also have a ballet pump style pair for wearing in and out out of the garden, again super comfy and very practical.

I love them too, though generally just wear them in the garden because DDs would disown me if I wore them out.

TallulahBetty · 05/08/2013 20:36

We have two pairs each, one for the garden/beach and one for slippers in the summer.

I love my yukon crocs, just ordered some more from amazon yesterday!
Hubby has some crocs Mesa leather ones, best shoes he's ever had, just can't get them any more here. I bought him some clarks ones at Xmas but he says they're just not the same.

Ive got the flipflop and they are very comfy. They are plain black so I can't see how they can be any less stylish than any other brand if flipflop?

I wouldn't wear the mule type ones as I think they are ugly but dd's and ds2 live in theirs in the summer. Looking forward to getting new mickey ones from disney at the end of this month. Dd's currently have lego ones. Ds2's are plain navy.

I love them too. Flip flops for the garden and wedge heel sandals for out and about. Too comfy to care what they look like!

Iv only ever had one pair of pump style crocs and as comfy as they are my feet heat up and my toes get a horrid itchy rash off them.still kept them though as they are ok if not going to wear them for long,like pop into the garden to hang washing long.

Elsiequadrille · 06/08/2013 11:04

They do look very comfortable, but I couldn't bring myself to wear them. They're great for children to wear in the garden.

I have the retro yukons and dh has some leather ones he swears by. They are very comfy!
