Crocs are cute in bright pink/purple/red when worn by little girls. Otherwise they're not stylish. Comfortable, maybe, but not attractive.

I'm so clueless, I thought they were from Australia, but they're out of Colorado. I had no idea they were so big. Here's some funny anti-croc sites: http://ihatecrocsblog.blogspot.com/http://www.komoricave.com/crocs/

Holy crap! Crocs Inc. is a publicly traded company on the NASDAQ exchange. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CrocsThey did $350m in revenue last year. The shoes have been so successful, it spawned a company that makes accessories that fit into the holes. http://www2.jibbitz.com/On October 3, 2006, Crocs purchased Jibbitz, manufacturer of accessories that snap into the holes in Crocs, for US$20 million after co-founder Hanson met the seven-year-old daughter of Jibbitz founder Sheri Schmelzer at a public swimming pool. I'm really in the wrong business.

Cruising public pools and chatting up seven year old girls has never panned out for me. Some guys have all the luck.

Bite all the way here.
If you're thinking about Crocs, may I also suggest a nice rainbow sticker for your car and new window treatments?

I've experienced these kicky sandals first hand, and they are the kickiest I've ever seen. Me? I'm a traditionalist, plain 'ol come to Jesus sandals for me.

Wife has Chacos and LOVES THEM. Young child has Crocs because Chacos are expensive as hell. Young child likes Crocs because they're red and easy to take off.

I see them everywhere here. I tend to think they are ugly. Look like they should be gardening shoes and nothing else. They're also very wide, wouldn't fit well on my very narrow feet... even if I would consider trying them on. I think part of their appeal might be how light they are, but I don't head off to many places I usually walk around barefoot. And if I do go somewhere, I want shoes that have good arch support.
... So I guess that would be thumbs down.

TMI??? lol - possibly I guess I've just thought too much on it recently - I don't like them, yet I see them everywhere. I do like to ponder on things... and the above combination may not be greatest when it comes to me and thinking.

Okay, here is my 20 cents worth! They look really cute on kids, Georgia has a hot pink pair. They make adult's feet look like they are ten sizes bigger, than what they really are!
