They fit perfectly and ds is swanning around in them

Tell me I did the right thing in buying the army green ones? Is the whole point of crocs buying a lush colour like Pink

i had ordered a different colour, phoned fat shoes day to check i had ordered the right size, they said that they were out of stock of the colour i had ordered, told me what they did have, and i chose army green and they arrived 2 days later..

Got DS's some Asda fakeys they are really cute, and feel the same as real ones.

PinkChick · 12/05/2007 20:26

well i was gunna get myself some from cheap shop today reduced to £5, but they were MASSIVE...really huge and wide, although actual crocs are still wide these were not even worth fiver!, then saw some 'skechers' ones for dd, but thought the correct splling should have been sketchers, so didnt buy them, only to get home and find they were actual skechers, they were bright pink and £7.99, so may have to go back tomorrow!..think ill get dd 'real 'pair for hol and might get the flip flop type for myself..saw some funky pink and green ones today

I want some, which are the thinner looking ones? Are they the cayman style? Is that whats in next??
I'm thinking of getting some black ones for work, i'm allowed apparantly.
I heard that feet swell when further into pregnancy, so thats my excuse.
I'm only 7+3 at the mo. But i can wear them to get used to them. .
Should i get 2 pairs? Got a £20 next voucher but don't know if you can use it online.
Or shall i order in store?
Sorry for the many ??????

Yes Caymans are the narrower versions of the Beach, I have very narrow feet and they are fine on me.
I would buy two pairs (god I would love another pair).

You can buy CROCS instore at Next not sure if you can use voucher online.

They will be fab for pregnancy, I never realised just how comfy they were, its like wearing your slippers all day bliss!!

It's a done deal then. Will pop in on thursday and sort it out. one black and the other....... not sure,will see what colours they do. Don't think DH will like the pink ones.

IlanaK · 13/05/2007 16:31

Does anyone know anywhere that has the prima style in stock? I have some on order from lookatmycrazyshoes but they are having stock problems too and won't have any in before July!

ShinyHappyPeopleHoldingHands · 13/05/2007 16:32

I want white ones.

PinkChick · 13/05/2007 16:35

skechers (sold in sport and soccer, got some for dd today) are very reasonably price(kids were £7.49, but had adults ones in all kinds of funky colours inc white, black, navy etc

Wurzel you need a crazy colour if youre buying a black pair. I have army green and am thinking next pair will be pink or sky blue oh the possibilities are endless

They ahev Prima (Fuchia) in size 2 or 3 on sweet feet if thats any use

peachygirl · 13/05/2007 16:37

I have my eye on some burgandy ones from here.jelly egg
fatshoes don't have that colour
I have small feet so kid sizes for me thought burgandy would go with everything!! and would be vaguely grown up!!

IlanaK · 13/05/2007 16:41

No, I need a 7 or 8. They are even out of stock in the US!

Imawurzel · 13/05/2007 16:41

I'm a 5 so sometimes can get away with kids, but as my feet will be pregnant like after summer, suppose i should go for adult ones. sky blus sound nice, want some that will go jeans and skirts.

Imawurzel · 13/05/2007 16:42

sky blue even!!

ah crap you may need some form of counselling if you cant get the style/size/colour of CROCS you want.

I wonder if they have a helpline

Think I need some help with my obsession

Don't have my size

mosschops30 · 13/05/2007 16:50

they have them on sweetfeet in your size wurzel

now what reason could I have for buying another pair before holiday? This will be even more difficult than concealing the Qunniy Zapp purchase

OP posts:
Imawurzel · 13/05/2007 16:52

Gonna be naughty and get em from next on my account. Haven't got 'real' money to spend at the moment.

Nor me, I will probably ask my friend Mr. Mastercard

Has anyone invested in the crocs butter? It makes them nice and shiny, or will one of those universal shoe shine sponges work just as well?

IlanaK · 13/05/2007 18:47

I have the crocs butter. Its strange. The spomge has something on it, but the tub is empty. I had expected a tub of something like vaseline, but it is just a sponge. It does make them shiney though.

The what??? am I missing something?

Think we need a CROCS thread similar to the old MN Style Shop.

So who reckons I should buy another pair for only £26, its a bargain isnt it????

Browny · 13/05/2007 22:44

Mosschops30, I went into Next and tried on the Crocs there, they were so wide my feet (which are a 6 and very narrow) looked absolutly huge. Are you sure that the Cayman style are the ones that Next are selling? .
