    What is the fascination that women have with croc shoes?They look gammy,do not seem comfortable.They are made of plastic and come in extemely bright colours.My blood boils when I see someone in college wear them?How can people wear them?They are disgusting.

    Is there something I am missing about them.

    Why does what someone else chooses to wear on their feet make your blood boil? Do you not have anything else to worry about???

    Anyway since I got my Crocs in August they have been the only thing I have worn. They are so comfy and light to wear. I usually suffer with all new shoes with blisters and the Crocs have not given me any. Would rather have my Crocs and be comfy and fresh than stuck in some manky old things. What other shoes can you bung in the sink and wash?

    Here are some features of them

    1.) Really soft, super comfortable, molds to your feet
    2.) Barely there, weighing only 6 ounces
    3.) Vented so air passes through, keeping feet cool
    4.) Non-marking slip-resistant soles
    5.) Bacteria and odor resistant
    6.) Ultra-hip Italian styling
    7.) Port holes allow water and sand to pass through
    8.) Can be sterilized in water and bleach
    9.) Easy maintenance, just wipe clean
    10.) Orthotic molded foot bed for ultimate comfort and support

    You think they look uncomfortable? I suggest you try some on. As for the cheap copies I would steer clear of them as I doubt they have the same features as the proper ones and could make your feet sweat and be a bit smelly.

    I totally reccommend the real ones to anyone.

    But it is winter.Why are women still wearing them?They look anything but stylish.It's like ye let Boy George loose in your shoe closet.

    They're vile. Regardless of how comfortable they are, whatever price you've paid for them, you've been robbed.

    I've seen them on TV actually, but in shows like Grey's Anatomy while the doctors were wearing their scrubs. I just thought they were sacrificing style for comfort.

    i'd pay more money for a really comfy pair of shoes before I'd pick a 'stylish' pair, but then I have testicles so I shop with good sense
