I think these shoes are hideous, but people who wear them swear by them.

I better go warn my daughter, she has several pairs in different colors.

[agooga]

I like Crocs for the beach and pool, etc., but wouldn’t really go out in public with them.

thanks for posting...
I need to direct this to my SIL, as my young neice wears Crocs a lot.

[lonestar]

I love my Crocs!—have 4 pair.

[AdamSelene235]

I don’t understand how people can leave the house in footwear that can’t survive a motorcycle wreck or shatter ribs if need be.

[pbear8]

They can rip my Crocs from my cold dead feet!!

[Cecily]

The escalator will rip them from your warm live feet.

[az wildkitten]

Hate the shoes, Love the stock.

Have them and they are indeed a whole lot more comfortable than the other shoes people rave over: Jimmy Choos and Manolo Blahniks*(pretty on the feet but they wreck your feet.)*/Just Asking - seoul62......

Word to Jodi McDermott: Stop talking to the press and get thee to a Federal Courthouse!

[ImaTexan]

At least now I can walk again, even though I have the prettiest polk-a-dots you ever saw on my feet, from mowing and gardening. Love my CROCS

My husband told me several stories about sailors who have taken a header off their boats while wearing Crocs.

Personally, I don’t care for the way they look, but evidently, they are unsafe, as well.

[socal_parrot]

I wouldn’t wear those ugly a$$ shoes. < /OJ>

[caver]

Hah, President Bush in Crocs! That’s a hoot!

[1Old Pro]

I think these shoes are hideous, but people who wear them swear by them.

Thanks for the succinct summary of my viewpoint as well.

[Alouette]

I prefer White Mountains. They have the same stubby toes, but they are suede and have good solid cork soles.

[SoftballMominVA]

I have 8

When God made me, he made me with little square duck feet - no lie - a 5 EEE. Crocs are the only shoes that fit me without having to be ordered

People look at me feet and are generally either horrified or fascinated that someone could have almost square feet.

sniff sniff...I smell a class action lawsuit.

The danger is relative. How often do you ride an escalator? I think there are only two escalators in my entire town of about 45,000.
