What CROCS did for me!!

[eeyore45]

OH MY GOSH!!!!! I love them!!!!! I have been wearing them (my purple beach) since I got home at 5. It is now 10 and I feel like I have been walking around barefoot all evening!! The real test will be around the hospital when I get to work tom.. My husband has even agreed to try a pair! Thank you all! I love them!

another believer...

or is it we pulled another to the dark side?? ????????

Yep, looks that way eeyore, looks that way!!! No need to sell anything..they really do sell themselves--that is if people get the right shoe for them. I'm ready to pack up a truck with crocs and go nation wide--All Aboard

Dchef, The color purple in your post is the color of my new purple crocs! I am going to get a black pair for me and another for my DH. My poor Birks are going to gather dusts! (sorry great grandpa! He worked for Birkenstock for 18 yrs in Germany)

I know! I think I need me a pair of purple. I need more Crocs...I need more Crocs... One in every color!! Well you know, a pair in every color--or heck I will start a trend of wearing different colors on different feet--Talk about UGLY...but its a solution when you don't know which ones to wear, which is a problem produced by an urge to buy all of them which is an obcession of sorts I believe.

Well, I just got mine today in Sea Blue and I'm still wearing them. I usually wear an 8 or an 8.5 and I ordered a medium. The thing is, they look gigantic on my feet without the strap, but, when I wear them with the strap they still feel big, but, comfortable... I'm keeping them. I will try them on for one more week, because, I am ready to order another pair (in red) and I want to make sure this is the right size for me. My very picky DH loved them and asked me to order him a pair in Navy


Thank you!!

I'm sorry the picture isn't that great, but, I'm new at this tech stuff!!!

I've been wearing mine for about a week and they are wonderful!! I'm so excited to find something comfortable I can wear for work AND that don't cost an arm and a leg!!

All my friends in pharmacy school have been trying them on and I've already inspired 4 sales that I know of!!

Thanks for introducing me!!

I am north of the boarder , But I have a pair of light blue beach on the way to me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How weird is it that some of the styles are made in Canada, but we have to find them in the states.

Found a guy(?) on ebay.ca who is in the same city as me and I won a pair of light blue beach for 26.00 usd + shipping. I am thrilled, they should be here sometime next week, just in time for my trip to WDW!!!!!!!! Will pick up a pair of purple or butter when in orlando in 18 days!

I love the idea of a shoe that helps the foot, who cares about style. I have a C width foot that is 10.25 (found that out when buying ice skates at a pro shop), with heel spurs, these will hopefully be a god send.

Thanks for the info on these wonderful shoes!!! Will post when I get them and add my crocs pic.

Penny I think you will love them!! I know what you mean about Canada--guess they call that out-sourcing huh! My brother moved to Calgary almost 15 years ago and still comes down to get things here that he can't find there--But I know there are things you have that we can't get that are to die for. I am sure that it won't be long before they are EVERYWHERE--Have a great trip and enjoy the USA--I am headed to Calgary this summer--Can't Wait!!!

Just got my second pair yesterdsay. Sage color Caymans! I always went barefoot in my house but now I'd rather wear crocs. My son(5) thinks rainbow ones would be nice-he wants a pair now too.

 

[svltvl]

I would send them back and get the medium ones. I wear a 7.5 to an 8 and I got the meduim. They are just right.. not too loose and not too snug. Oh and I have the Nile model too.

I'm going to change my Nile sandal orders (i ordered two pairs ) from 7s to 8s. I have to wait about a month to get them though

One of the kids at my school asked me if I had gotten my shoes at a store at the mall called Journeys. I hadn't but I called them and they carried some! We checked them out yesterday and I found a khaki pari and a butter pair, sister found a red pair and a black pair and that size fit her! We'd ordered her some but they were too big--someone else in the house took the 'too big' pair!

They guy at Journeys was also able to order me a black pair from their warehouse and they'll ship to my home in a week or less! And for only $3.50 extra! Now if my crocs order will come--I've got navy and white in that order!

I want some other colors now--pink, purple, lime green, and rainbow! I kind of like the idea of wearing two different colors! I'm beginning to see other people wearing them around here, too, and someone at the mall asked us about them yesterday. It's strange--I'm not used to being on the cutting edge of fashion!! hahahaha

This is always useful.
I have a sister that often makes use of shoes I order, that don't work for me. I hate returning them (but I do if they are expensive).

I like the idea of wearing two different colors also.
I can do my hair, with the same colors, on opposite sides.
Or maybe make a hat (and maybe a shirt) that has one side of each color. Then I can do a checkerboard sort of look.

If you see me walking around WDW with this look, you will know that I got the idea here.

Right now I only ordered one color.
If the shoes work for me, I will order more pairs. The pink I ordered will go with much of my wardrobe, but is bright enough to clash with some of my wardrobe.

I think that my shoes came yesterday, because I had a package notice from FedEx. I hope that they bring them back today, as I am at home waiting for them.

When I was preg. I had a problem with painful shin splints and groan pain. After I had my baby everything was fine. Well since I have been exercising(low impact arobics and walking) they have been bothering me again. Sat. DH and I walked about 10 miles around WDW and ever since I have been in horrible pain from my shin splints. Has anyone else had any experience with this and will CROCS help? The more I look at them the less ugly I think they are. We are going to WDW for 10 days in Sept. and I won't be able to walk if something doesn't give.

I also just bought a scunci steam cleaner, I'm wondering... how do y'all clean your crocs? Mine are looking dirty, I'm going to rev up the scunci!! Too many people are looking at my FEET!! I need a pedicure!! never had a pedicure!!

*grin!

Glad it WORKED!!!!! I just tested again to make sure I wasn't steering you down the wrong path. Great for you to keep trying!

Does the Nile model fit your foot the same as the Beach model, or is the Nile a bit narrower than the beach? The stores in my area carry the Beach but not the Nile. When trying on the Beach model, I discovered that my foot is inbetween the size S and size M. I wear a size 8 shoe. I feel that the size M Beach is a bit large on me, but my big toe is really at the end of the size S.

Any advice???? I really like the Nile model the best.

Jen that is EXACTLY how they were on me. My foot swam in the meduim beach and my toe hit the end of the small. I got the medium nile and they are perfect. There is a bit of extra room at the heel of my foot, but not so much it looks strange.

Thanks for the response. That's what I will do too. I am so glad I found this thread. I would not have given these shoes a second look otherwise.

I suffer from hip pain and sometimes my left leg will go numb down to my toes after standing on my feet for a period of time. I believe this is called a pinched siatic (sp) nerve. However, I have never seen a physician for it.

I sure hope these shoes will relieve some of the pain so I can have an enjoyable trip. Thanks Disers' for your recommendations.
