They’re Gore-Tex, Jerry!
Feet are the back-killer. Back pain is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my feet. I permit them to pass under me. And when they have gone past I will turn the inner eye to see their path. Where the feet have gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.
…crocs need ventilation holes or your bare feet will sweat and the shoes will get nasty…
All the juice runs out of there’s holes, this will let a good amount collect.
Ankle socks
…if you’re wearing socks you don’t need a fuzzy liner (and may as well wear full shoes)…
They’re my weapon of choice
“Interesting… you’re wearing your crocs in the desert style, like a Fremen. Who taught you to do this?”
“It just seemed to make sense…”
“He is the Lisan al Gaib!”
for a second I thought it’s some kind of bad dragon toy
Muadib.
My feet started sweating just looking at the photo.
My feet started sweating
How else will your stillsuit reclaim your water?
I can almost imagine that one guy wearing them bare foot
that one guy
Dude, I’m right here!
I kind of like them 😅
Same, if I had to buy crocs I’d go with these.
But then again, I do love foam runners so I don’t know if that take is surprising.
Sure, that catches on, but not the nipple-windows.
I dunno… Those look better than normal crocks, at least.
This has nothing to do with Crocs but shoes in general. I recently got a pair online that advertised “super squishy” soles. Almost like memory foam but really really soft. They felt great for about 20 minutes then the super squishy, squished out to the sides and in weird places around my foot. They were horrible. If you’ve ever gotten sand inside the fabric of your shoe lining, its a lot like that. I should have returned them, but the pair I was replacing were literally falling apart and i needed shoes. 0/10 would not recommend.
It’s like they’re pathologically adverse to normal-looking shoes.
Where do the croc charms go? smh
They look like the stuff the characters from Concord would wear
Looks like a sex toy
Those have incel fuckboi energy
Whatever the fuck that is

I like to point to Idiocracy (a movie you couldn’t make today but I say for the first time in 2024; I think it was good) which Crocs are used as shoes for the future because of they were not widely available and the costume designer said “There’s no way people will wear them.”
I stand vindicated that Crocs are idiotic.

Fuck brands… But as far as the general concept of a durable, washable house slipper goes, they are great. Also wear low cut socks.

If you’re in your house then why are you wearing shoes? Just wear socks or go barefoot. Maybe they’re useful if you need to step outside for a minute to take out the trash when it’s cold outside. In my experience, regular slippers tend to fall apart if you wear them outside

I’m still waiting for buttfuckers to open their first store, should be any day now.

I love them for in the garden and shop. They’re hideous, but I don’t have to bother with socks or taking the miniscule amount of effort it requires to put on shoes.

Every now and then I get the feeling there might be something about them. Are they like supremely comfortable? Everyone I see wearing them nowadays seems chill and makes it look like they’re comfy.
Either that or the country has fully devolved into Walmart as Idiocracy foretold.

They’re comfy, they’re easy to clean, they’re water proof, they can be worn like slippers with the straps up or can be more comfortable for walking around with the straps down, you can regularly find them for $30.
What are the negatives again?

My GF got a pair of Crocs clogs for work. She works for a vet so she needed something easy to clean and comfortable, and they’re definitely both. She was a doubter just like you until she got a pair.
Granted, they’re not the ones with the strap on the back and holes so they don’t look terrible, or at least as terrible as a pair of clogs. But she understands why all the nurses wear them.

that movie is awful

It’s an entertaining movie, despite it’s downright fascist messaging that the untermench will outbreed the Ubermench causing hell on earth.

I was surprised it was made back then.
