Crocs - are they any good?

[SingleMum01]

My DS 7 has size 1 feet. Am wondering whether to get him some crocs for summer hol. Are they any good, are they correct sizes. Where can I get some really cheap ones?

Thanks.

you can't get really cheap ones, I usually get them for my chaps from JL, free delivery

I don't know if mock-crocs are any good

Amazon do cheaper ones - just got my LO croc shoes "dawson" from there >£10

what is JL? how much are they? Thanks.

They are great imo. The dc's love them. They are lightweight, washable, easy to get on and off etc...like wellies for summer!

For children only...or for me as slippers/garden shoes. Or in labour!

I get them from Lookatmycrazyshoes.com

I saw them reduced in Sports Soccer the other week.

We had several pairs of mock-crocs which all broke really easily.

I ended up buying the proper ones and they have been fabulous for me the kids. IME they come up a little small but then we all have wide feet.

I don't care what the fashionistas say, I love mine!

JL John Lewis...?

Asda et al do versions of crocs but they gave my DC blisters. I suppose it depends on the shape of the foot though.

Pizza, can you link to yours please??

Ours always come up big!

They are sized differently to usual shoes, they have size guidelines on the crazy shoe website..also Jellyegg website.

only £10 here for kids crocs

theaged parent - great thanks.

princessmel - where on the website is the sizing???

Amazon croc "shoes" with backs and all, lined a swell. DS - 7 adores these, he is a 13.5 so got the 1's and they are a little loose but he is wearing socks here www.amazon.co.uk/Crocs-Junior-Dawson-Slip-10512-070-121/dp/B001U88UI0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=shoes&qid =1269711457&sr=8-1-spell

Normal crocs from Amazon www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Dshoes&field-keywords=crocs some of these are less than a tenner and free delivery on lots of them.

princess - found it, doh!

My DS has a width fitting of G would he fit okay in the Crayman version?

DS "G" and hes fine

I have Caymans and my feet are massively wide - they are fine.

I don't care a jot about fashion, they're mega comfy and they last well too. My pal got me a pair when I was pregnant with DS and they're still good 3 years later. Fab for nipping out to the washing line, , putting the bins out, mooching around in. Not fab for being so comfy you forget you're wearing them and turn up in Tesco with them on - even worse with white socks underneath

sports direct usually have genuine crocs for around a tenner

We've had crocs from sports direct at a very good price but otherwise tend to buy from www.sweetfeetshoes.co.uk who have several styles available, some with discounts, lots of colour choices.
