Crocs:


I'd like to talk about croc shoes. I understand these shoes are very comfortable, and I know I'm going to make people angry but they are hideous. Don't get me wrong. If you like them wear them but I would never, especially the ones that are bright and tacky. I don't think these shoes should come into trend again this summer. I'm sick and tired of seeing them on everyone's feet from grannies to babies. They drive me nuts!! please people, try flip flops. And don't be a follower in the trend of tacky.

By the way, my rating is 0 for these shoes, but the lowest the scale was 1.

I have one question. What makes those plastic foam "flip flops" any better? I think those are just as bad if not worse than croc shoes. Seeing people's dirty toes and feet in those things are a huge turn off. Atleast with crocs people's ungroomed feet are hidden. In addition, the sound of flip flops are rather annoying. In conclusion flip flops are beach shoes; therefore, they should only been seen on beaches!

i totally agree. They might be comfortable, but they are SOOOOO UGLY! And some of them or way over priced.

I really agree "those shoes are tacky" and also dangerous. I too would rate crocs a 0. I also think flip flops would be a better chioce.

crocs are ugly

Crocs are The #1 dorkiest shoes on the planet! The (Talented) crew from 22 minutes did a little sketch on it, try '22 minutes dorks' on YouTube, It's hilarious!!!

Crocs Suck!!! They're EVRERYWHERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm having foot surgery in spring (severe bunion) and I bought these as my revovery shoes for when I get the cast off.. As ugly as they are they are perfect fot this and I will probably wear them all summer (I bought the plain black model though!) :P

I love Crocs and they have some pretty stylish ones out now. I wear nothing but crocs. they are comfy and have helped my back problems and will continue to help me as I have just been diagnosed with arthritis.
People LOVE UGG boots which are big bulky furry UGLY shoes. I think UGG stands for ugly! Flip Flops are so bad for your feet no arch support or anything. Crocs makes a flip flop and at least you have arch support on them.

I LOVE CROCS THAY ARE SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO CUTE I HAVE A PAR AND THEY ARE NOT ULGY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Crocs - don't be fooling yourself that they are soo comfortable. They offer no support and for kids they encourage kids to curl their toes in order to keep them on. I would not buy them just for those reasons , poor for foot and muscle development.

Crocs are really comfortable, ugly and they have no foot support

i have NEVAH liked those shoes. they look like a monkey made the shoes and poked holes in them. Also, they're not that comfty.
(just a thought)

I love Crocs. The different styles that they have brought out are amazing. Their colour schemes could be a little different. Most shoes out there don't provide support for your feet, unless they are those berkenstocks and they are definitely ugly. I have many different styles of crocs and have never had an issue with aching feet.

CROCS ARE GREAT - They are very comfortable and my mom owns a pair! Looks great on her. (Don't call her old!) You wont really notice them if you wear white ones with white socks under either, so, STOP HATING! LOOKS DON'T MATTER!!!!

hehehe I know a girl who wears red crocs with yellow socks inside hehehe

...however, I agree with the fact that they're comfortable. They're also easy to slip into. I usually use them if I'm going outside only for a moment (e.g. to pick up...dog doo) and am feeling too lazy to actually...put...on...my...shooes...*gasp*
I always hide them when I have friends/boyfriend over, however. They ARE grossish.

Yes, they are ugly. But who's wearing them for fashion anyways?

To first poster: If were gonna keep flipflops on the beach, lets keep those ugly crocs in the garden.

CROCS ARE UGLY KNOW MATTER WHAT ANYONE SAYS

I've learned to embrace the ugliness of my crocs.

Although they're more aesthetically acceptable, the constant flip flopping of flip flops is far more annoying to me, than the ugliness of my favourite summer footwear. Not to mention that flip flops trigger my paranoia and I constantly think someone is following me.

From walking the dog on dewy summer mornings to canoing nothing beats crocs. When I get to the park in the morning with my dog, these toe covered ugly clogs keep both the morning and dog dew off of my toes. I even tried them on a canoe trip last summer and found they were in fact perfectly designed for portaging a canoe. They drained quickly and kept the inside of the boat dry, while offering great support while carrying a canoe and gear over all kinds of terrain.

As for the argument that they're not comfortable, don't take my word for it, take a peek into the kitchen of your favourite restaurant, or pop into a local hospital. Those who spend hours on their feet would tend to say they're very kind to your feet.

Crocs are putrid.
DISGUSTING!
They were never IN STYLE.
Crocs were just a fad.
A dead one now.
WOOHOO!

Different people have different opinions, so why are we fighting over shoes? We all know we can't change eachtohers opinions. Although it is kind of fun to argue over silly things, we shouldn't. Crocs are good for some peoples feet and provide good support, while to others, they don't. Let's just leave it at that.

If we all subscribed to the crocs theory, soon we will all be wearing robes and moo moos instead of jeans and t-shirts because we dont give a lick what we look like as long as we are comfortable..

I love my crocs...don't think they will ever go out of style. There are so many styles to choose from. So what if people don't like the looks of them. I don't like the look of those hideously pointy spikey high heeled boots. I dont think they can be that good for your feet, and they make peoples feet look 4 inches longer than they really are. Now that is what I call a ridiculous unhealthy fad that should stop now! But I don't care who wears them, so I don't think anyone should care if I wear my crocs. Just ordered 4 more pairs...LOL!!!

Nothing beats crocs when YOUR feet hurt!!!!!

Crocs
Crocs are UGLY and OVERPRICED!
They offer no foot support, smell like rubber, the bright colours become dirty and cannot be cleaned.

everybody at school has crocs! i don`t like them. they smell weird, and are hard to wear.
i got some once, i left them at my friends house over the summer. so now they are hers. she looks better in them than i do anyway.

I think crocks arn,t very good because they get water in THEM!

okay, just a though , they really aren't that comfortable. And plus they are okay inside youre house , or on the beach, but pleas , wear flip flops, they both cause damage to your feet if you wear them to much , but flip flops are so much nicer

I think crocs are the worst shoes ever made. My friend had a brand new pink pair and dropped one in the lake near my house and it floated away. Why do eople even wear those shoes? Stick to sneakers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thats what I do.
