Does anyone own a pair of Crocs? Are they comfy? What's the instep like? I need a high arch support. And how much do they normally run? I'm looking at them on eBay and I want to make sure I get a good deal.

Thanks!

I'm sorry but i just can't understand how they became such a trend? i keep seeing people in them and i just cant get use to them..especially the colours? Is there something special about them? what makes them such a big thing? I don't think thy look like they'd be that easy to walk in?

LOL The first time I ever saw them was last year when we went to Canada! Now I'm seeing them everywhere here in the midwest. First it was the nurses wearing them and saying that they're SO comfortable. And now I'm seeing lots of people wearing them.

Yeah, the colors are quite interesting. Very bright and colorful, if you want. Some of them are neutral though. I'm looking at a pair of denim colored ones on eBay. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...MEWA%3AIT&rd=1

Actually, they look like a version of Birkenstocks to me. And those are ultra comfy, although silly looking. Kind of like clown shoes! :jester: I have a pair of the shoes and about 3 pairs of sandals! lol They are the most comfortable shoes I've ever owned in my life and I have foot trouble. I just love the arch support in them! :Love3:

Did you get your crocks Luv?

I just saw them in a local sportstore flyer, they actually have a different style that i like, called Athens, i found them on their site:

I may have to try them on..my favourite nike flip flops are getting a little worn, i have a million pairs of sandals/flip flops, but i like to always have one good pair for walking.

How expensive are they there? they're only 34.99, and those sandals above are only $24.99 (cdn of course). I was surprised, i figured they'd be priced like birkenstocks, which i think are around $125 here.

Theyve been up here for quite sometime now..last year i really started seeing alot of people wear them...now? seems like everyone and their kid is wearing them!!!

I think they run about $30.00 here. http://shop.crocs.com/c-4-Footwear.a...nname=footwear

I didn't buy any yet. I'm so broke now that it ain't funny. My car has turned into a money pit. Brakes, new tires and another $170.00 yesterday on some cam sensor thingie. Hopefully I've got everything done to it now for a while. :Sarcastic:

I never knew the name of those shoes. My mom and sis both have a pair, they call them gardening clogs! They only wear them when they're working in the garden though. Aren't they like a rubbery material? That would make my feet sweat I think.
