love your crocs

What do you think about Crocs? Most people seem to love them, or hate them - there’s no middle ground. I’ve tried them on at the store, but I haven’t bought myself a pair. I’m a little bit leery, because I see all of these kids wearing them around the hockey arena and they’re always losing the shoes and tripping. I’m klutzy enough without wearing shoes that are going to make me fall flat on my butt.

I can see why they’re so popular though - they’re almost as good as going barefoot (my preference!) You can get them in just about every color, and you can even get special Disney versions. And you’re not stuck with the original “Beach” style either, because now there are sandals and thongs available. You can even get decorations, called Jibbitz, for your crocs!

The company must be doing something right - sales were up $200 million last year.

   Hmm.. I’m one of those who is crazy over these colourful, funky and hip sandals.. have about 6 (old and new).. they are good for travelling though.. dry fast, lightweight and good grip, if the size is right

   Crocs drive me crazy! I think they are so ugly. And those Jibbitz things…that company has a great marketing department!

   Everyone wears those at Disney! I’ve tried them, but they made my wide feet look twice as wide as normal!!!
