Crocs in the Park

[Alaska Annie]

I know I read a thread about this, but I can't find it now. I have always worn my athletic shoes in the Parks, but my crocs are SO comfortable. . .am I pushing my luck by wearing them? Anyone have experience with long walking in crocs ?

On our last trip I think they were the most popular footwear. You will see so many people wearing them.

I can wear mine around the house barefoot fine. When at WDW, I needed to wear a VERY thin pair of socks [Disney ones of course, to match the Mickey crocs] to prevent blisters on the tops of my toes. With the socks on I was great. I didn't care what my feet looked like as long as they kept me going.

I also have Body Glide & I might try that instead of the socks; I'd still bring the socks with me.

My DW and one DS wore their's every day of our trip last Sep. She thought they were great, and he thought they were ok. ME, while I wore them all over the place last summer, I wore them one day in a park and disagreed with them both totally. Back to sneakers for me. My DD wore her's one day, and was crying by lunch. Thankfully we had her sneakers in the backpack just in case.

We all wore ours every day last year, and our feet were very happy!

We alwasy wear our Crocs at Disney! Our feet are very happy in them. The only issue we've had was slipping in them in the rain.

I don't like to do too much long walking in mine. I still use my running shoes.


My crocs make my feet sweat so I would have to wear socks. Also my feet slide in them when they're wet. My dh has no trouble with his.

During the summer, DH and I wear our Crocs all the time. However, we learned the hard way during our WDW trip last July that we can't wear them nonstop when doing all of that walking. Both of us ended up with blisteres on the soles of our feet! We caught this quickly, wore some different shoes for a couple of days, and were ok to go back to our Crocs -- only this time wearing them for only half a day-or-so at a time. Worn like that, they were great!

I have always had problems with blisters when at Disney or anywhere else where I'm walking all day, until I found Crocs! I wear them with socks (I look like a dork but it's better than blisters) and have no problems.

That's all we wore last January in the parks and all we plan on wearing when we are there this August. So comfy!!

That is all we wear too! And if you need socks, I say go for it....who cares what others think!

My whole family wore crocs the past two trips with each trip lasting 10days. They are so comfortable.

Hi
I wore my Croc Scutes all day for seven days. I have brown and blue and wish they'd come out with lighter colors. My feet were the best they've ever felt. No blisters!! I'll be wearing them again for my August trip.

We were there in the heat of August last year, myself, DH and our 3 kids (10,7,5). At the time, DH thought CROCS were the ugliest things going, and would not wear them, he wore hiking shoes and socks. The rest of us wore crocs (the regular ones for the boys, and mjanes for DD and I) and of the 5 of us, it was DH who was complaining that his feet hurt, his socks were wet etc... I thought the CROCS were great - no soggy socks after wet rides, and nice and light. They are slightly slippy inside when wet (or sweaty) but the quick drying and lightness makes up for it imo. No blisters or sore feet for any of us croc wearers, although DH did get a small blister on his toe. He has since converted to a croc wearer, and wore nothing but on our recent trip to florida....

kids and I wore crocs last trip, great. one small blister after a 12 hour day.

DH wore sandles. He asked me to buy him crocs for this trip!
