do your kids like Croclings?

[DisneyPhD]

I am thinking about getting my girls some new crocs for your trip to WDW in a few weeks. I was thinking about croclings?


The thing is my older DD says her size 12/13 mickey crocs are too big (she has had them for a year and still wears her old size 10/11 ones.) I don't see buying new shoes the same size as her old. She wear about a 12 in normal shoes.

My younger DD has size 4/5 mickey crocs and they seem like they are getting kind of tight. I fear 6/7 will be too big.

Do the croclings stay on better and fit smaller then the other kids crocs?

Do any stores carry them that you guys know of (not on line so they can try them on.)

I have less then 2 weeks until we leave for WDW.

My 2 1/2 year old dd just got Ariel Croclings before Easter and loves them, wore them to Disney World last week, too. She's never had Crocs before, so I'm not sure how they compare though.

I was afraid the others would trip her up because she's always running around like a maniac! And they work great.

I had to order the Ariel ones online. But, I did find the solid color ones at a Crocs kiosk in the middle of our mall so she could try them on.

good luck!

Hi! My 3 yr. old loves his croclings. We bought them last summer off of an ebay store. He has worn them all year, even during the winter.(he wore them with socks.) They fit him much better than the regular crocs and they are very easy to clean. I don't know any stores who carry them but his shoe size when I bought them was a size 8 and I bought the 8/9 and they still fit. His foot is just now starting to outgrow them and I will be purchasing another pair in the larger size. And you just can't go wrong with the Disney croclings!(his are skate mickey.)

Thanks guys. I showed them a picture on line and they both really want the Cinderella ones. I just don't know about the size. I am thinking about the larger sizes and if they don't fit, they will grow into them.

My oldest DD can still fit in her crocs from over 2 years ago and they are really worn out.

The price of the croclings is high. 35 for kids shoes. Still they always get their money out of crocs (and wear them for years.)

We just got our first pair. The great thing about them, is the back strap doesn't seem like it will stretch out, like regular crocs.

My boys had regular crocs and disney crocs that they wore ALL last year in a 10/11. The bottoms have worn off and they aren't looking great, even after repeated washings.

I bought croclings and regular crocs. I bought the same size 10/11. DS2 loves the croclings, but DS1 says both types are too tight! (He's used to his stretched out ones! UGH!)
I don't think the croclings fit any different than new beach crocs, but I do think the strap may hold up better.

I got blue "Flame" ones off of Shoebuy.com with a 20% off coupon. (made them $20 or thereabouts) I order from there very often and have had GREAT service. Unfortunately, their selection isn't always great.

thanks, still going back and forth on the sizes, but your post helps. I will look at shoebuy. I was going to go with surf and dirt because I am really happy with them in the past. It will be a $70 shoe order for kids and that makes me go

I just got my children some new Crocs. We went to a local store and I got DS the Croclings. I LOVE THEM!!! He has a narrow foot so the regular Crocs just fall off of him. The Croclings stay on and they are just too cute!

They didn't have DD's size in the Croclings so I got her the pink Pelicans. I want to get DS the Pelicans now too because they make great pool/beach shoes.

 

[1rockinmamato2]

Oh! I just checked crocs.com and they have Tigger Pelicans and Pooh Pelicans now.

I usually try to get the boys a pair of Stride Rite sandals and then something cheaper and casual. Last year my mother got them the crocs and they only wore the Stride Rite's ONCE. UGH! This year, I didn't even fight it. We bought two pair of crocs each, and I'm done. (Luckily our church is pretty casual during the summer. I'm just hoping to avoid any weddings this year.)

So even with the good price....EEK! But, 2 crocs and a new pair of athletic shoes, I'm done buying them shoes for the summer .

I have a thing with shoes for the kids. They have a lot of shoes that they grow out of quickly. But, gosh, they need just the right pair for certain outfits. I go crazy.

We love Stride Rite too!

What type of store was it? I would love to have them try them on 1st.

It was just a local mom and pop store here in our town. Hmmm, I'm not sure if there are any major retailers carrying the Pelicans right now. I know Dick's Sporting Goods had the Croclings at one time.

You can go here to search for stores in your area: http://www.crocs.com/shop/find_crocs/

I would call around to see if you can find any locally, if not, I know Zappos.com has the Croclings and the Pelicans, Shoebuy.com has the Croclings. Both have free shipping. Zappos.com will get your order to you in 5 business days.

www.shoesonashoestring.com have the Disney croclings for $17.50 a pair and the regular croclings for $15. My 19 month old loves her croclings. Most of the time these are the only shoes she wants to wear.

They have some GREAT deals on Crocs. But, they don't have the sizes the kids wear right now.

I'm tempted to buy ahead with prices like that though!

I was thinking of getting my cousin a pair - thoughts? Disney PHD what do you think?

 

[Alex&Evan'sMom]

I say go for it! They are super comfy and super cute. My son never wants to wear anything else. And they have disney croclings in boys and girls styles. Can't get any better than that!
