Crocs are taking over !!

[princess pooh]

I wore my crocs for a long walk in yesterday's humid jungle weather and my feet didn't sweat. I did get a big blister though

I was reading this thread and happened to be wearing my Crocs so I was interested to see the mention of holey soles, the Canadian version of Crocs. I flip off my Crocs and see they are made in Canada! Are holey soles just Crocs? Anybody know, I am just curious.

Yes they are crocks with a little difference here and there for patent purposes. Plus hopleysoles are cheaper than crocs 19.99 vs 34.99 for the crocs. This is what I was told by a rep from holeysoles I spoke with over the weekend at Costco (priceclub).

I hate the way they look, so I just try not to look down and just keep remembering how they made my feet feel after a day in an amusement park... My feet appreciate the crocs!!!!

Question for Croc wearers...I am an 8 1/2.

The 8's my 2 little toes next to the baby seem to be peeking through the holes..with the 9's there is a lot of extra room all over the shoe

What do you suggest, because I am really tempted to order the Reliefs on-line because I also have a heal spur?

For everyone who thinks that crocs are really ugly, I just found these: http://www.journeys.com/catalog_detail.aspx?c=Girls&s=Shoes/All&id=46032 and (i think) they look really cute. They don't look like they'd keep your feet as cool but they look a lot more like real shoes than the other crocs lol!

WHOA! They look like the bits of plastic my daughter used to force on her Barbie dolls.

I was in the hospital yesterday for a mammogram and the technician had on a pair of Crocs and I mentioned to her that I was thinking of getting a pair and she swears by them! She says they are so cool to wear and she's on her feet all day without being sore! But she kept repeating that they were not very professional looking but I told her whatever helps your feet out is the most important thing!

Lol, now that I think back, they kinda do I still think that they're a bit nicer looking than the normal crocs though

They do! Uh oh! I used to chew on those when I was a kid...

I have to laugh at my mom she went out and bought a pair of crocs because she had heard such great things about them well she wore them today to see a foot specialist guess what he told her. He said to ditch teh crocks get some real orthotics and wear runners as they are much better for your feet and the crocs are not actually that good for your feet I laughed at her for that one I know not nice to laugh at your parents but now not only does she own ugly shoes but her foot Dr told her not to wear them LOL...

ok, this might sound like an odd question, but I just got a pedicure, and my toes are ohhhh so pretty with my lovely nail polish.....I just bought some crocs yesterday (because we're leaving for Disney on July 28, and I wanted some comfy shoes), so I was wondering.....will they rub my nail polish off, because I'll be wearing them with no socks.....I know...silly question eh?

Relief

I've just ordered on line A pair of Relief (khaki) and Niles (lime green)
I ordered size nine and two turbo straps so if they are too big I can adjust.
Hope I made the right decision, because they arrive in 10 days and then I go on the 18th.

I still think I'm going to buy a pair of Ecco sandles too.

Good thing I have a big shoe bag..but what lady doesn't

I always make sure that I have the same colour that they put on or I purchase it at the time for touch ups. Sometimes I bring my own polish for just that reason. I have thick nails on my big toes and they rub so I make sure that I get the most out of the pedicure by being able to do a fix up. I've been to a couple of places that give you a nice little sample bottle...but those were the really expensive places like Evelyn Charles

I don't have crocs yet but if I recall the top of the toe bed is quite raised up so there may not be any rubbing. In the meantime, you have to break them in so you might just want to take a little or long walk back to the salon and get the touch up paint.

I want these shoes . No international shipping so it's just tough. Does anyone know if they'll become widely available or remain exclusive? Someone needs to give them a lesson in sharing

Thr Journey's website said that they were exclusive to Journey's so the crocs website may not be getting them any time soon. I agree that they need a lesson in sharing

I have to agree with the Dr. on this one. I've been wearing them for about 2 yrs now and I have a heal spur. It is very sore all the time. I've got orthodics and wear my running shoes more now. All I ever wore was the crocs though and I'm paying for it now.
