Kids are the exception to crocs! Although they aren't my footwear of choice, they were the only shoe I could get on my 12 month old daughter's feet! Her feet are wide and thick and so crocs it was. I think they look cute on her and they are so easy to clean!
We were at Disney a few weeks ago and of course they have thought of a new way to make money. They have the little charms there also and there were entire families wearing them. I agree I just can't see adults wearing them.
Well, ya'll are just going to have to talk about me. I have a pair to wear in Disney next week. They are totally comfortable -even more so than my sneakers. Comfort beats fashion in this situation, sorry whoever doesn't like it.

Laken NOOOOOO! How could you give in to this horrible disney trend? J/k. pick up some mickey and minnie jibitz to wear on them while you are there but try not to wear them around Dallas too much.
My bf received a pair for standing in his friend's wedding back in november - yeah fab-o gift for being a groomsman - but needless to say he finds them revolting and has yet to wear them. I'm teaching him well :)
If you want to see them IRL nordstroms stocks them. So so scary. I made the mistake of wearing uncomfortable shoes shopping and had to buy a pair of flip flops, but considered buying some Crocs. Don't worry, I quickly regained my senses and gave myself a time out in the Salon shoes section at nordstroms :)
Just wanted to add if there were any closet crocs wearers around here to please wear sunscreen on your feet during the summer months as the tan/burn lines are horrible with crocs. Someone on the disney boards I visit posed their husband's feet after a week at WDW and his feet were covered with brown spots due to the dots on crocs.

I think that's the problem. In the garden, have at it! But when people wear them out into the world is when it bugs me...

yeah...I'm considering a pair of the "ballet flats" for gardening and the occasional early morning dog walking, but these things are not shoes meant to be worn all day!
