Help! Deadline Approaching!

[DisneyFan06]

Okay, I really need some assitance! Time is going back quickly and soon I will be leaving for another Disney Adventure! However, I am running into some problems. I really need to purchase some Crocs because of the heat we experience in the heart of Florida during the summer season. I am not sure which type to purchase. I have it down to two: Cayman or Athens. I am really undecided and I need some pros and cons and some opinions from people who own them. Any assitance is appreciated - I need to hurry and purchase them so I can get them in the mail in time for our trip! Thanks for everything!

I am a male, 20, from Florida - if you wanted any background information. Thanks so much!

Also I heard Athens come big.

I wear a decent 9, however was thinking about getting a 10. Would you suggest I get a 9?

I think that crocs run small. I would go ahead and get the 10 if you are cutting time close. DH got the cayman style but wishes that he had seen the scutes before he bought them. You can order them on the No Fear Gear website. I would go for the scutes or the caymans. I'm sure that the athens are great as many people have suggested, but i would be afraid that they might not stay on that great during some of the rides. Anyone else know?

18 days till WDW!

I know, I am cutting it real close! I need to hurry and make a decision at least by tomorrow. Anyone know about Athens and if they would hold up well during a day at the parks?

Thanks!

I took my Beach and my Athens down there last month (May). I wore my Athens flip flops only about 1/2 day before I started getting a hot spot beneath my big toe. I switched over to my Beach (and my Teva mush flip flops) and didn't have any more problems. I didn't have any trouble keeping the Athens on though. If you want some really comfortable flip flops try the Teva Mush. Mine have made five trips to WDW and will be going back with me in Sept.

As far as sizing goes, I have Croc Beach, Aspens, Athens, and Niles and the only ones that really run small are the Aspens. I usually wear an 8Med and that's what my Athens are. They are plenty big.

Guess what I did! Last night I purchased a pair of Athen Crocs, which I plan to wear for my Trip to Animal Kingdom then to all future trips to the world. Since I tend to wear Khaki shorts along - I got the Black / Khaki color. I am looking forward to them and once again thanks!
