The hate against crocs befuddles me. It's a bloody shoe. People wear them because they're comfortable. You'd think Maddox would be hating on the people who pay $100 for what's essentially a giant bloody knife on the end of a piece of a wood shaped like your foot. I'm referring now to what's called "heels". But OHHHHH instead let's hate on the people who choose convenience, cheapness, and practicality over insipid fashion. And the bandwagoners. I swear there must be ten million kids who have never heard of a croc in their life that after reading a thread like this or maddox's article have all of a sudden come to the conclusion that crocs are the equivalent in threat level to humanity's existence as the black fucking plague and forcing babies to watch rob schneider movies put together.

My point is: IT'S A BLOODY SHOE. IT'S CHEAP. IT'S COMFORTABLE. NOW FUCK OFF WITH THE BANDWAGONED HATE.

No I don't own a croc. The only reason I even know what they are is because of vapid threads like this everywhere I go on the internet. If nothing else, shut up about crocs so I don't have to hear how you hate them so much anymore. For christ's sake you lemmings, I know there's somebody out there who wears a croc but god forbid they are socially ostracized on TEAMLIQUID for admitting it. Why that would be worse than being caught with ten year old porn.

+ Show Spoiler +
not directed at anyone in particular, but i felt i needed to call out the general hypocrisy of this and other croc threads

I get where you're coming from, but looks and comfort are not mutually exclusive. Why sacrifice looks for comfort when you can have both? On the other hand, if crocs are as comfortable as people say they are, it may be worth the sacrifice of looks for a little extra comfort.

I don't know anything other than what I read from Maddox's article, but if he's not lying, these things cost upwards $30-40. Which is way too much for what's essentially a slipper. I don't see how they could be much more comfortable than what I use - hard to imagine me wanting to shell out that much extra cash for a slipper replacement.

And I regularly see shops selling heeled shoes for $10 around here. So meh. (No, I've never bought any. Serious.)

Well gee, I'm seeing upper prices of $29.99-39.99, which would be exactly what Maddox said. Well, 1 cent off. But you wouldn't fault him for that lack of precision?

To me, Crocs are just too damn fucking ugly.
And while there are bandwagons that crocs suck, there are also bandwagons that idolize crocs as the next best invention.

While I too agree with comfort > looks.
Crocs are just not acceptable to me.

crocs are just comfy and easy to slip on, good for going outside on wet grass or whatever

of course, if i was going running id wear proper shoes but just for sitting at home and stuff they are great, especially since they are so much cheaper than the more expensive shoes

Crocs may look disgusting but discouraging people for wearing them makes you no better than people trying to stop you say.. using drugs for example.

if you don't like crocs because they're ugly, fine. If you're "embarassed" for your people who wear crocs because you think they care about your judgement of what's aesthetically pleasing, then you're a douche.

Agreed. I got a pair for about $20. They're just comfortable, and I really don't wear them outside. (I use normal shoes for that. I tend to need close-toed stuff anyways.) Also, while I was living in the dorm, they were excellent shower shoes. They dried a lot faster than the sandals I was using previously.

Edit: Compare the price of crocs with footwear such as moccasins. On amazon, cheap crocs are around $20. The cheapest moccasins are about $10-20, but the reviews aren't that great. The average price seems to be about $25-30. (note: I'm using moccasins as an example because the function seems somewhat similar to me, i.e. inhouse footwear).

Ok, I understand the versatility and slip-on-ability or whatever the fuck it is. Ok.. Skate shoes are slip-on, last forever, are extremely comfortable AND don't look like fuckin' clown shoes (by the way Im sick of these douchebags wearing CAMO Crocs, that took it too far). I don't care if you wear them, I care if a whole family wears them because it's embarrassing to human-kind.

And just so you guys know, If i write a blog about how much I hate something its in a humorous, satirical, RIP George Carlin way ok? SO stop getting your crocs melted on the sidewalk about stupid shit!!

i never said anything about skateboarding?!

every time i ran long distance in skate shoes it was pretty painful. they're plainly not designed for writing. trying going 2-3 miles in them, then try doing the same in cross trainers or running shoes.

I was replying to coltrane above your post sorry.

Lol this is a big satircal joke aimed at the ridiculousness of CROCS. And athletic shoes suck too. Skate shoes and vans slip-ons/authentics only!

Running in Skate shoes is like running in real shoes anyway.. Just tighten them.. and i dont have a small foot plus i have flat feet so i would know..

I hear there good for people with flat feet (like me). But I have enough money for approximately 1 pair of shoes so they're running shoes.

Running in skate shoes, you will be able to go neither as far nor as fast as in running shoes. But then, if your goal is just to exercise or something, and not go as far and fast as you can, I guess it doesn't matter if it doesn't hurt.

But for me, and many other people, running in those kinds of shoes is a bad idea. They have bad cushioning and bad stability. Plus, no ventilation, who likes sweaty feet?
