InactiveI’ve been debating on buying a pair of these for the longest time. They really are hideous looking, but everyone talks about how comfortable they are.
Anyone have them and like them?August 17, 2007 at 10:18 pm #41308Anonymous
InactiveMy dh just found them on sale at Dick’s Sporting Goods before our vacation and bought us both pairs of the Crocs Beach shoes. They look the same, but I think they may be lighter weight. THey are ugly, and I avoided getting them for the longest time (even mocking people who had them!), but they ARE really comfy! I have to say, I do like my crocs now, but I’m still not wearing them with every outfit where ever I go!

Inactivenaomi—-i have fibromyalgia and pain in the bottom of my feet is a BIG problem for me. these shoes are the best thing i have done for my feet—-and i didn’t even buy the actual “crocs” —i bought cheap imitations for less than 10 dollars. i even wear them to church. i don’t know how many people actually look at my feet at church, but some of them would probably be mortified at my lack of fashion sence!LOL! i lead the singing for the kids at church and when i went into the nursery once and commented on the fact that i was wearing these tacky looking shoes with my dress and didn’t care, one of the gals said, “that is what i love about you.”
i guess being quirky has its charms.LOL!!!!kevieb2007-08-17 23:02:46

InactiveOkay, I just had to add my two cents to this. I LOVE CROCS!!
I mean I wear them aaaaaaall the time. Now granted I’m a SAHM and not hugely aware of how I look….ever.
I’m just excited to get a shower and throw some powder on! BUT I love these shoes. I live in them . Yes, they’re not the cutest. But mine are light purple and I think they’re kinda cute!
I wore a pair before my new ones into the ground so when dh said you need some new shoes I thought, I WANT CROCS!!
Anyway, I love em. They are the most comfortable shoes to me anyway.August 18, 2007 at 6:42 am #41315Anonymous
InactiveI have a knock off brand, but mine are still comfy. I want the real ones but my dh boght the wrong kind when I was prego at christmas. but at the end of my pregnancy they were the only shoes I could get me feet in. I had to wear them to work, thank goodness he bought me black ones, But I love my knock offs, so I assume the real thing are even better.

Keymasterdh & I are staying off the croc bandeagon, LOL!
anyway I have freakishly flat narrow feet so I tried a pair & alas, my feet don’t fill them- hard to describe, but most shoes when I put them on, there’s way too much space b/t the top of my foot & the top of the shoe…good thing i’m in a warm climate so I can find sandals like Naot or mephisto to fit me!August 18, 2007 at 9:33 am #41327Anonymous
InactiveOK, somebody please tell me what CROCS are!! I have plantar fasciitis and my feet are killing me. Maybe CROCS are what I need.

InactiveI thought these might be good for my husband to wear because he’s a massage therapist and is on his feet all the time. He wouldn’t consider them though.
I think my sister wears them.For the two Christines, have you hear of the Z-coil shoes? They’re supposed to be excellent for back, leg, & foot pain. I don’t know much more about them though.

InactiveChristine, they are ugly, plastic-like shoes that EVERYONE wears around here (NC). I first saw health professionals wear them in hospitals. Check out http://www.crocs.com . There are several different styles now, but the “beach” is the main one I see.
Thanks everyone! I think I’m going to get some.

Inactivechristine—-the doc says i have plantar fasciitis, too—–i wasn’t sure if that was what it was until i asked the doc recently. these fake crocs don’t make the pain go away, but they help my feet more than anything else i have tried.
heather, what are the z-coil shoes?August 18, 2007 at 3:50 pm #41349hellbennt

InactiveYes, those are the ones. I know a lady from another board who just swears by them. She says they’ve really helped her back & joint pain.

InactiveThanks! I’ll check out CROCS and Z-Coils. I need something fast.

InactiveEveryone around here has them as well (CT).. and I MEAN EVERYONE! I personally am refusing to get them just “because everyone has them”. I am usually not that type of person.. but i mean its really getting out of hand here!! (it would be funny if i did end up getting them, which i probably will ..but for now I am refusing to
). Anyhow, mostly every kid has them.. and every other adult. For kids they can be found at the childrens place ( clothing store) for much much cheaper. And as for comfort.. I am a “REEFS” girl.. They are sandle/flip flops.. that are the most comfortable things..and i wear them 10 out of 12 mos of the year!!August 18, 2007 at 9:19 pm #41370Anonymous
InactiveOK, I always thought the “beach” crocs that I see everywhere are hideous, but I just visited the website and I think the MARY JANE crocs are adorable!!! I will have to feel out the “dress climate” at my new school and maybe if it’s casual enough I’ll splurge!!!!!!!!!!!
