What CROCS did for me!!

[Madi100]

I've heard that they are re-designing the Nile, and that is why it's so hard to find. Anyone hear anything like that?

My Crocs came today, I love them!

I bought the Cayman style from http://www.rei.com

Ordered them the 12th they came today, 5.99 shipping, just ordered another pair with the 10% coupon they sent me. I noamlly wear size 8 and I bought an 8, fit perfect. They are made in the USA and the Crocs emblem isn't a sticker it's built in the shoe and can't come off.

I did order from the Shoe Pavillion, the Beach style on 11th, they're supposed to arrive the 19th, they had free shipping.

I love my Crocs

We went to one Payless yesterday and I got a pair for myself (before the Buy One get One Half Off Sale). Today, we were in the mall at another Payless and they had these for kids too (the one yesterday didn't have the kids version). I got a pink pair and a blue pair for my twin DDs. Now all three of us are set!

We just came back from Payless! I got myself 2 pairs of the knock-off Crocs (blue + black) for $22.49 total (buy one get one half off)

If you go into a Payless and they don't have them (assuming you want to try the off-brand), the counter clerk *will* contact other stores for you.

I'm hoping to still get an original pair of Crocs but the stores in my area won't have them in time for our trip.

Wah Hoo! I picked my Beach crocs up from the Fed Ex Store today, and put them on in the parking lot!! I missed the Fed Ex guy yesterday and could hardly wait until the Fed Ex store opened this morning. I ordered Sea Blue Beach size Lg, from the crocs web site on March 12, so it took a little over a month. I wore them grocery shopping at Walmart to get a jumo start on breaking them in. It's now 3 hours later, and they are still very comfy. The only problem I'm having, which is the same problem I have with ALL new shoes, is that the arch on my left foot is a little sore. That's why I'm breaking these in WAY before my August trip! My mom's coming to visit tomorrow, and she has chronic foot problems. I'm going have her try mine on, then we may go seek out the stores by me and have her look at a few pairs!

Madi100: How do you have your name written in Disney font with the cute Mickey and Minnie on either side of it? I would love to be able to do that!

Also, your little girl is a cutie! What a great picture!

After reading this thread daily for a couple of weeks now and seeing all the wonderful reviews I decided it was time for me to have a pair of Crocs!!! I went to the Crocs website to find "a location near me" and to my amazement (because we live in a very small town) I found a store 20 minutes away. I jumped in the shower and off I went in search of my Crocs. I walked thru the store's door and there they were!!! Three different styles right before my eyes!! They had the Beach, the Cayman and the Niles. I liked the others but I just had to have the beach ones because of the pretty colors. They had sold out of many colors so there was only about 5 or 6 to choose from. I was just going to get the red but I just couldn't leave without also purchasing the purple!!! The very best part was they were on sale for $27.00 so really I had no choice but to but two pairs!!! The gentlemen that owns the store said he had been really unsure about carrying them but a salesman for one of his supplier's had talked him into it and he has been pleasantly surprised with how well they are selling. He said he had reordered all colors including any new ones but because of their popularity the orders were running behind.
I have had mine on for a couple of hours now and so far they are wonderful so thanks to all of you for sharing!!! My Crocs and I are anxiously awaiting our upcoming Disney trip in June.

I did it, went to the web site and broke down and bought a pair. I also have a problem with my (L) foot the tendon snaped a few years ago. I also work in a hospital so the color and style will work real well. Thanks everyone for your input and can't wait until I get them. Will come back with the results..................

Just bought my DD a pair of the knock off Crocs at Payless today. I have an pair of real Crocs and they feel exactly the same to me, look similiar too. Pretty cool.

So...I went to the store that I found using the "Store Locator" function on crocs.com and while they didn't have too many different colors to choose from, I walked out with the Sea Blue Beach style Crocs. "OOOOOhhhhhh" my feet feel like they are walking on marshmallows! I had my Mom and SIL try them on and each want a pair. It was raining pretty hard today and I just had to try them out in the elements. They dried off sooooooo quickly I could hardly believe it!

Thanks so much OP for letting us all know about these wonderful shoes...I think the tag fairy should give you a tag that says "Croc trend setter" or something to that affect!

First of all, I gave in and ordered 2 pairs of slides (Niles) from the Sahalie site - a 10 in black and a 9 in blue. Hopefully one will fit me, but I'll try breaking them both in to see which is better for future reference. I'm hoping the blacks will fit because I'd wear them a lot more.

Just wanted to tell everyone that that site (Sahalie.com) has the beach style in LIME GREEN!!!! Tempted to order one, but the beach style doesn't fit me that well (10-11), so once I see them in the Cayman style definitely!

DH wants to know when we can go back to the store so he can get a pair. I may try Payless first & try to get some for the kids too!

Are we Croc-o-holics?

 

[MinnieM3]

OK, yesterday I bought my first pair...and my second! Pink and Light blue. Wore them today and LOVED them. Went back today and got bight yellow and black.... black for formal occasions, of course! Love them!

I think I may have my DH get the ones at Payless. The 'slide' kind there (Airwalk is the 'name' of the payless brand) look more like something my DH would wear.

Remember, they are having a Buy One Get One Half Off sale right now!

If you do get them, let us know what you think of the differences between the Payless brand and the Crocs brand. I only have the Payless, so I don't know how they compare. BUT so far my DDs and I are loving them!

This is SO funny because tonight my twin DDs (11) went to a Father Daughter dance with their dad. They got all dress up and did their hair and can you believe one of them wanted to wear her new pink shoes to the dance! I didn't let her. But I couldn't believe she would want to wear them to the dance! How funny! I guess she really likes them.

Just an FYI for anyone thinking of getting those lime green ones, I ordered them from Sahalie on March 30 and they are backordered until April 22. I can't wait to get them!!

Now I'm really itching for those purple ones, too. Who do I have to thank for this addiction again?

I've heard that they are re-designing the Nile, and that is why it's so hard to find. Anyone hear anything like that?

Right now they have the Niles in 4 colors. In June they are coming out with several more colors. I haven't heard about the design though. I wonder what they could be doing.

I ordered a pair of Crocs for myself last month and love them! I called my local Payless store to find the knock offs for my kids and the clerk said, "We don't have them in, and let me tell you which Payless stores around here do - none!" So I ordered my youngest dd a cute purple pair off the Payless site, and got another pair of Crocs Caymans for my oldest dd from REI (free shipping since we have a store nearby) Payless only had size 10 and up in the knock offs I saw online and since she and I wear the same size we can switch off colors.

They seem to be going like wildfire...do you think it's all because the Dis???

 

[Mermaid02]

I got mine on sale for 25% off- and I pre-paid for dd's so that I got the sale price. I think I will pre-pay for some for my son too. They are only $22 on sale..... I might get another pair. They seem to be helping my achilles tendonitis and osteonecrosis in my hip seems to be easing a bit (although I am walking less with my handicapped placard now- so that might be why my hip feels better). I reach for these shoes FIRST thing in the morning and wear them all day long!

Do tell...where???

 

[disneyaggie]

Well now here is a first! I love my CROCS; however, the last two days that I wore them a lot, by the end of the day, my lower back hurt more than ever! I thought it was a fluke one day, but when it happened the next day, it drew my attention. I can't for the life of me imagine why. These things are sooo comfortable. Any suggestions or ideas?
