Crocs

[Torchout]

I feel a bit odd asking this question here. What do people who actually own crocs think of them.

I'm looking for a pair of shoes I can just pop on at 4am to go to dialysis. They need to be suitable in all weathers.

If you do have them, what's the fit like I have wide feed.

I love all the colours, and the fact that they never ever give you a blister. Blissful!

Wearing some now. Stylish and beautiful - nope. Comfortable and practical - definitely!

I resisted crocs for years and years. Once I had a puppy in 2020 I relented and now have 10+ pairs. Mostly platform pairs and wear in every weather. Literally just got back from a long dog walk (7 miles) where both DS15 and I wore crocs.

Many years ago I worked as a chef and had some crocs with no holes. They were called "work clogs" I think. Absolutely hideous things but so so comfortable for standing all day and evening on a hard tiled floor. I still have them and use them for DIY and gardening and they still have years of wear left, although they are now covered in paint.

Crocs with socks are the best

I absolutely love mine. I find it difficult to find comfortable shoes but crocs are really comfortable for me.
I don’t care what anyone else thinks. Years of cramming my feet into tight, uncomfortable pointed stilettos has left me with painful feet. Now I choose comfort over style.
I take mine on holiday as opposed to flip flops.

It's a slippery slope!!! After resisting them for years, I bought a pair for 'nipping out with the bins' and now are worn most places :)
