Hey look this is new....a Crocs question

[dvcfamily41801]

Sorry to do this folks! Was wondering if anyone had the Crocs Relief. I have the worst pain in my heel and I have NO idea what it is (far be it from me to go to the Dr. about it ) but it has totally changed the way I walk. Its one of those pains that hurts like crazy if you put pressure on it, but it kinda feels good if you put pressure on it if that makes any sense?? It came out of no where and it has been for the past few months and it has totally changed the circulation in my legs. Im a mess.

Anyway....if anyone has these....how do you like them? Crocs Relief

Sorry, I have not tried these. However, there are several threads over on the Budget board concerning Crocs. You may be able to find some answers there.
Hope you find some relief soon.

It sounds like you have heel spurs. I would go ahead and have a dr check your feet out, there are exercises that can help it feel better. I have them, and I do have to say that with wearing my crocs, I have been pain free for a long time!

It sounds like you may have plantar fasciitis. Check out www.heelspur.com for more info.

I plan on ordering some reliefs. My SIL bought the clouds after hijacking a pair of my beach and holding them hostage. She's been RAVING about them. We have the invasion of Crocs in our front foyer, so I've held off.

Keep you posted. I'll probably order them in time to come the day I get back from vacation.

I have them. I have plantar fasciitis and they are great for it.

I'm finally coming around to considering the purchase of a pair of crocs for my weekend job. Actually beginning to find them somewhat attractive. M-F I sit behind a computer, but on weekends I'm on my feet at the bowling center, constantly in motion, kind of like a waitress for 3-6 hours at a time.

I was thinking about the Cayman, but I'm wondering if the Relief or Professional would be more suitable for that environment. The closed top with the side ports is ideal because I serve beverages and sometimes have spills, no matter how careful I try to be.

I don't have foot problems, but if I wear my K-Swiss athletic shoes (walkers) my knee and hip hurt within a few hours, although I did not mind them walking around WDW. It's not quite so bad with my Nike cross-trainers/runners but they look pretty terrible and have a loop on the back that forever peeks out over my pant legs and annoys me. If I wear my Clark's clogs I'm good a while longer. Yesterday I made it about 5 hours before the pain started to bother me. It's the standing idle that wears me out the most.

I've tried on the Beach, which is really oversized for my liking and that's why I think I would prefer the Cayman's slimmer body. However, the Relief's descriptions says "Shock absorbing sole relieves stress on feet, knees, hips and lower back". I like the smooth top of the Relief more than the ribbed look of the Professional. Does anyone have experience with Relief or Professional? Can you compare them to the Cayman?

sleek and slender version of the beach

ultra soft sole provides a cushioning effect for ... generally achy feet

closed top protects the foot and ribbed ventilation ports channel fluids away

Hoping we can get any help comparing these! I was looking to purchase the Relief ones as well. Also wonder about sizing for them. I have the Beach (I think anyway....I have a tough time telling them apart from Cayman) and they are a 8-9. They are fairly roomy, I can fit 2 fingers behind my heel and the shoe...is that too big???
