Well, I sold my last Corvette so.......

I wear crocs slipper (with the furry lining)all the time in the house I wear them when I’m washing the boat I run and when I’m washing my vehicles. Not embarrassed at all.

Wear them around the house. Outside they are a goat head magnet.

I have a camo pair that I keep at our duck club, waders off in the wader room, crocs on to head into the clubhouse for adult beverages. People that say they are comfortable are full of shit, if they weren’t so easy on and off I wouldn’t own a pair, they are one the most uncomfortable pieces of foot wear I’ve ever worn at least in my opinion. I will admit to wearing Birkenstocks though, they are comfy…

They changed the composition of whatever the material is several years back when the company sold. The originals are/were extremely comfortable...like walking on a marshmallow. The new ones? Not so much. I still have, and wear at work every day, the original pair I bought 17 years ago and you can have them when you pry them from my cold dead feet.

I wear Crocs when doing yard work. You can get them wet, muddy and stained from mowing and they perform just fine. I'm not sure what else works better.

The look kind of frumpy but I can't argue against how well they work.

Wear them in public? I've worn then a couple of times to Home Depot but everyone there working on a project looks scuzzy so my scuz wasn't notable.

I’m a proud Croc wearer. I’m not afraid to wear them anywhere. If they made a dress shoe croc I’d buy that and wear them to work.

If I need to expel myself from the forum I’ll do so but I will continue wearing my Crocs!

I wear work boots 10hrs. a day, 5-6 days a week.
I put on Crocs, shoes or thongs and wear them the rest of the time.
If I need shoes I wear Keen Utility boots.
I wear Keen Work boots and they are comfortable, wish Crocs made a composite toe boot!

Was advised by my podiatrist that I should never again be walking around in bare feet anywhere due to very high arches. I wear them as house shoes and also as beach and pool shoes but that's it. You have to be careful about leaving them out in the heat and direct sun like on a beach because they will shrink on you like 1-2 sizes, I found that out the hard way.

Yup! My podiatrist told me to never go barefoot in the house, and to either wear Birkenstocks or Crocs only (if not wearing shoes) due to plantar fasciitis. I found a pair of Birkenstocks on sale and tried them because I wasn’t about to wear Crocs. I will NEVER be without a pair of Birkies ever again. They cured my plantar fasciitis. I don’t normally wear them beyond the house except maybe a rare gas run when I don’t feel like “getting dressed”. Birkenstocks have excellent support and are very comfortable.

I wonder if they make miniature Birks to hang on your shoes? Lol

This thread has really shaken my faith in humanity.

I must be the only person in America who cannot wear Crocs. They mess my feet up bad.

Texas Scrub. I need some of those!

For the classy lady in your life, doesn’t it give you a chub?

I confess while in my early 20s I wore espadrilles walking on a beach in Mazatlan late one night. My girlfriend said they were cool. They were stupid uncomfortable filled with sand...

I will NEVER wear a pair of crocs

Same. Not fond of saying never, but I’d bet my life on it. In this case, never. Adidas makes a great pair of sandals, flip-flops, whatever. Vans make a great slip on shoe. I’m not wearing plastic condoms on my feet.

All I know about them is that my two year old granddaughter loves hers.

Oh ye of little faith
Send a few pairs of crocs to Kid Rock. He might be able to use them for target practice.
