I had some and couldn't stand them. The material would pull my foot hair, and they reminded me of orange peanut candy. And the squishiness didn't feel foot-shaped, to me. It just felt like mush. I need arch support and a firm platform. So I hate on them because they strike me as foam toys rather than shoes.

But what if you don't compare them to shoes but just to flip flops?

Fair point, I actually mainly wore flip flops and preferred Reef and now ~~Ulukai~~ Olukai. Those checked almost all my boxes, though none of those give a firm enough platform compared to good walking shoes, so I shouldn't hold that point against Crocs.

Edit: I mixed up Olukai shoes with ~~Ukla~~ Uukha archery gear, oops.

Edit 2: I mixed up Uukha with Ookla. /facepalm

It sounds like you don't prefer wearing them but you don't have a problem with other people wearing them
