I bought Crocs.....(picture)

[Pixiedust34]

They are the Beach ones. I wear a 6 1/2, so I got the small. I'm hoping that I got the right size for my foot. I almost got the medium pair, but they seemed just a little too big.

I'm going to wear them around the house to break them in and to decide if I like them. If they pass my "around the house" test, I'm going to get another pair in pink!

Did you order them online or go to a store? After reading the other picture thread I went online and found out that Nordstroms has them. They were showing a "Thong" style I would like to give a try. Did you see that style where you got your?

TIA,
Alice

LOVE the green!! I just bought my first pair (red) and just gave my mom her first pair today for her birthday. I wore my to work on Friday (i am a teacher) and they were GREAT!! I can't wait until I can try them at disney. I am going to buy the flip flops before I go, if I can decide which color to buy. I would love every color, but my husband would go nuts!!

I was wondering about the flip flop ones too... I love the blue/brown pair.

I love your green... all the disers at WDW will know where you hang out

I bought them at Dicks Sporting Goods ($29.99). The Beach Style was the only one they had, which was OK. Before I bought them, I went online and decided that I wanted either the Beach or Caymen.

My big toe can touch the front of the shoe, though it's a light touch. I've been wearing them around the house (no socks) and so far they seem comfortable enough. I hope that the size (small instead of medium) is going to work out OK. For now, I'm wearing them with the strap on the back. The strap rubs against my heel, but I guess that's what straps do.

So far, so good...........These shoes are going to have to be 110% excellent to coax my feet out of Tevas when summer comes.

Looking at all of the colors is overwhelming. It's like trying to decide which ice cream flavor to try!

I'm having the same issue with my toe touching the front of the shoe (yet the next size is huge). I may try the dryer and socks trick. I also tried a pair of Airwalks from Payless and have to say they seem just as soft!

I'd love to try Niles because I really like the sandal look but I've read a few comments about the shoe rubbing the top of your foot.

I just got the beach crocs my big toe hittin end of shoe too. Top of shoe is rubbing yet the large was HUGE.

What is the dryer and sock thing?? I been wearin mine with socks feet would freeze otherwise, the beach not very warm that rubber sure is cold

These would never work for me. I have toe problems as balance problems and without proper support I would be in misery. Shoes are a major problem. I take 3 pairs with me so I can change whenever. New Balance and Rockfords seem to work best for me. Wish I could were other kinds of shoes. The Green looks good they will know you are a DIS fan for sure.

I believe someone said that if you place them in the dryer for 4-5 minutes and wear them with several pair of socks, they will loosen a bit. The salesperson at Nordstrom's agreed that if I purchased the larger size, I would probably not be able to keep them on. It's frustrating because everyone loves them and I can't seem to find a comfortable pair.

With all the positive comments from all of you guys, my DD 8 and myself will be ordering a pair soon. I was on the Crocs website this weekend. I don't understand the small, med. and large sizes you guys are talking about. They offered sizes (7, 8, etc). Help me understand how to order these. Thanks.

Pixiedust34 - I wear a 6 1/2 also and have been wanting to order some but had no idea what size. I live in a small town so we have none locally. Their website says Dillards in a nearby town has them and I plan to go there this weekend and see if they have any (for my birthday). Let us know how yours do.

I bought a pair a few weeks ago. The saleswoman at the store had a pair on and she said that her toe hit the top as well but after wearing them a few times the shoe looses up a bit and then it isn't a problem anymore. She was right after about 3 days my toe doesn't rub anymore. Also my straps were a little tight so I just kept stretching them out with my hand and now they fit perfectly. I wear them everyday around the house and I love being able to go outside and not worry about getting them muddy. I just hose them off and they are good to go.

I just ordered a light blue pair for my birthday.

I got a lime green pair off of ebay just last week. I wear a size 6 1/2 too and my toe was just touching. So I tried the dryer thing.

I would suggest only 3 minutes or even under, in the dryer as mine came out very warm. They had a neat feel to them when they were this warm. I put them on with socks and worn them around the house the rest of the day. They really molded to my feet and are now super comfortable.

I got DH a pair too and he laughed when he saw them. I said just give them a chance and see how you like them. Well he has worn them every single day since! In fact I am afraid I am going tohave to go to the store and get him another pair!

I found a store on eBay that if you needed more than one pair and you combined shipping you could get them a few bucks cheaper than the $29.99 in some stores.
