What Is The BIG Deal About CROCS?

I love them. I think they are the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn. My 2 year old daughter, 3 year old neice, 1 year old nephew and 11 month old neice all wear them and love them. At first, I refused to wear them because I didn't think they were cute at all....but, they are SOOOO comfortable! Also, the fuzzy feels sooooo nice.......lol

I have a pair that I wore when I was pregnant with my daughter. i worked a t a job where I had to stand for 10 hours a day, and I wore these so I could just kick them off when no one was looking. I do not wear them anymore though. Mine shrunk and they are too tight now.

well I think since they took over as an all around slip on shoe, they put the fuzzy stuff in to be warm for winter?? I told myself I would never get a pair since they're so ugly, but I bought a pair when we went on a camping trip to have some slip ons around the camp site. I think they are so comfortable. I just recently switched to a pink pair of CaliWear Sketchers that are shaped a little more like a regular shoe instead of the big front of the Crocs. I like the Sketchers much better!:)

oh yeah, me too. I don't like crocs. whenever I see someone wearing those, they really look like mc donalds. LOL.

but there's a health benefits of this shoes..
here it is:

Crocs are clog-like shoes that come in an array of vibrant colors. Since their emergence in 2002 they have been gaining in popularity in department stores across the nation. Fans of these shoes tout the brand's comfort and versatility, and with good reason - these shoes have been certified by the U.S. Ergonomics Council and the American Podiatric Medical Association.

The company has recently created a line of Crocs designated as Rx shoes, with the styles of shoes being named Croc Relief, Croc Cloud, and Croc Silver Cloud.

As quoted in the WebMD article, "Crocs: Healthy Shoes or Just Comfy", Crocs Vice President Lyndon V. Hanson, III says, "These shoes were designed specifically to eliminate plantar pain and achy feet. They also help people with injured feet, bunions, and diabetes. You've got a lot of inner support, heel cups and massaging heel nubs, and arch support. They're ideal for people with foot problems."In this same article, Harold Glickman, DPM, former president of the American Podiatric Medical Association (APMA), says this of the Crocs brand shoes: "These shoes are especially light. They have huge room in the toe that affords the front part of the foot lots of room, especially for people with bone deformities like bunions and hammer toe. With the Rx Crocs, they're lined with antibacterial material that will prevent fungal and bacterial infections."Glickman adds, "I do not have stock in the company or work for the company, but I recommend them to patients all the time, and I wear them all the time. I wear them when I'm operating for three or four hours at a time and I get the sense I'm standing on water -- no leg pain, no back pain, and no arch pain."As a substitute for a summer sandal, Crocs also get Glickman's approval.

As quoted in the WebMD article, "Crocs offer more protection for your feet than flip-flops. Flip-flops don't provide a lot of arch support; they're open-toed so you can stub your toe and hurt yourself. Crocs offer more protection and comfort than that."

Well, there are new designs now in the market and they are the ones that fit my style and just love it. Though its expensive I was able to get a pair through my aunt who gave it to me when she arrived from the united states. I thank her for giving me the crocs for I know me alone I wont be able to buy such extravagnt slippers.

i dont have anything against the shoe but if you're talking about the first design that crocs came out, the bulky one then i think that one's ugly! but crocs now have come out with so many designs, some of them are not bad. i've heard that most people wear it because it's comfortable though
