You clearly never wore Crocs. They are so comfortable, it's ridiculous. Not to mention practical. Easy to put on and clean.

Really?

No, I'm serious. I don't have crocs for a variety of reasons, so I'm ignorant and possibly a my own expense. I have slid my feet into other's once or twice, you know, when visiting and needing to cross a wet yard, and they've always felt uncomfortable to me.

Easy to put on, I get, but that's true of half the shoe designs out there. Cleaning... Ok I can see that. Spray them down with a garden hose, right? But comfortable? Can you explain that?

I, too, am curious about the appeal. Not enough to wear a pair, but perhaps you can explain. Are they like leather, and conform to your feet over time?

The point is, they aren't just easy to put on, but won't easily fall off. As for the comfort, they are made from soft foam and the sole is around 3cm thick. So they are just soft. But You really need oryginal Crocs, not any knock off, as they don't have anything in common except the shape.

Ah, then maybe I've never worn actual Crocs. The ones I tried felt really plastic-y.

I own a pair of Croc brand flipflops. They're essentially a Croc sole with a toe-thong on top. They're the most comfortable flipflops I've owned and they've lasted years longer too.
