crazycruzer68 Posted May 31, 2007 #1 Share Posted May 31, 2007 Just got my pair over the week-end and these babies are comfortable! Not as ugly as the original shoe but just as comfortable maybe even more!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bargeo Posted May 31, 2007 #2 Share Posted May 31, 2007 I totally agree. I bought two pair last summer, and love them. They make great garden shoes.....just hose them off. I also use them on our boat. (they float) I do not own any other crocs....I think they are ugly. The flip flops are cool and comfortable.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frogfuzz Posted May 31, 2007 #3 Share Posted May 31, 2007 Hello my name is frogfuzz and I am a flip flop addict..... I know some are more expensive but even more comfortable are Rainbow flip flops. I wore these suckers every island in the Eastern/Southern Carribbean. They don't make my feet sticky like the crocs do. Lots of colors . Extremely light and packable. A pair Rainbow, dressy pair of Rockport flip flops and formal night shoes, and I am ready for a cruise But maybe the flip flops my son just got with a hidden flask in them may come in handy ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MINIDRVR Posted May 31, 2007 #5 Share Posted May 31, 2007 Crocs make flip-flops? I didn't know that, I'm going to look out for them this weekend. DH has several different pairs of the original and says there's the most comfortable shoes he's ever worn. I don't like the looks of them on me so I'll ck out the ffs. Thanks for the tip.

Not as ugly as the original shoe but just as comfortable maybe even more!! Thanks for the review - could you let me know where you bought yours? I'm having trouble finding them croc ff at department stores near me. Would I be more likely to find them at a sporting goods store? I do like to try shoes on before purchasing, or else I would look online. (My right foot is 1/2 size smaller than the left)! :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morriscats Posted May 31, 2007 #7 Share Posted May 31, 2007 For anyone who has crocs flip flop - did you order your normal shoe size? I have heard some Crocs run a little large? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
addicted2cruises Posted May 31, 2007 #8 Share Posted May 31, 2007 I was waiting until just before my cruise to get mine, (been wanting them for awhile) now you have inspired me to go get them now:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bargeo Posted May 31, 2007 #9 Share Posted May 31, 2007 You can purchase on their web site..... crocs dot com. I have the Athens, they are $29.99. I notice they have a couple other styles now, that they didn't have last year. They run big. I usually wear a size 7, and I had to send them back and get a full size smaller, a 6. They fit perfect. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmberMarie Posted May 31, 2007 #10 Share Posted May 31, 2007 The crocs flip-flops don't make your feet *sticky* any more than any other flip flop does...:rolleyes: You must have missed the part where she was comparing the stickyness to the other croc style, not other flip flops. As in, she gets the croc comfort, without the croc stickyness.... :D ":rolleyes: " lol nice attempt though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The poster said that his/her "flip flop" choice is better than the crocs--didn't specify beach or aspen.

Along with the Flip flops (Aspen model) they also make Cleo, which is a sandal with two straps across the top--very comfy! Many who do not like the original Crocs "Beach" model are loving their flip flops and cleos :) As far as finding retail locations, Dillard's, Dick's Sporting Goods, and many Hallmark stores carry assortments but it will be the luck of the draw if they carry your style/color. You can always try on a different color and then order the one that you want at crocs.com. You can also go to their website and enter your zip code and you will get a list of retail locations in your area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desdemona01 Posted May 31, 2007 #14 Share Posted May 31, 2007 P.S. Hallmark stores? Really??? As in, the greeting card stores? correct!:D I thought it was just our local ones but I've talked with friends and family who've bought them in Hallmark stores in other parts of the country. I was in our local store last weekend buying cards and the people in front and behind me were both buying crocs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FinelyRetired Posted May 31, 2007 #15 Share Posted May 31, 2007 I totally agree. I bought two pair last summer, and love them. They make great garden shoes.....just hose them off. I also use them on our boat. (they float) I do not own any other crocs....I think they are ugly. The flip flops are cool and comfortable.:) You use crocs boating? I'll take your word for it. But, must say I'm amazed you find they work well, or even at all. I see people slipping around alot in those type shoes. I've always thought that's why you see so many folk wearing white socks with them. Just normal summer sweaty feet on rubber slide for me. Not to mention a marine environment with it's add'l moisture/humidity. The outsoles ridges' don't appear to be configured narrowly enough for quality traction on a moist boat deck either. I can't envison myself getting a good foot plant, jumping off a few feet to a dock and cleating our boat!??!! I've got to have a sueded footbed and narrow wavy outsoles (topsider-type) to be secure enough/ensure maximum traction to handle the lines and our boat well. For this ole' gal a selling point for a boat shoe would't be that it floats! That would mean I'm expecting to fall in the drink? Not good. :rolleyes:Martha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travel_babe Posted May 31, 2007 #16 Share Posted May 31, 2007 A lot of chefs wear them because they're comfortable for standing long periods of time and won't slip on wet/greasy floors as much as other shoes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruzelovr Posted May 31, 2007 #17 Share Posted May 31, 2007 Ive got the crocs scutes flip-flop, open toe and they're really comfortable too! I find the regular crocs with the closed toe and the rear strap kind of feminine looking, depending on the color, so I was glad to see a flip-flop style with an open toe (I'm not crazy about the strap between the toe). I've been a birkenstock wearer for the last few years and they're just as comfortable, more than half the price, and no break in period. I love 'em love 'em love 'em! Ladies, these babies would make a great Father's day present!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare patrice1 Posted May 31, 2007 #23 Share Posted May 31, 2007 Athens are all I wear! Looking to buy 3-4 more pairs in other FF styles & Cleo. I have never worn anything as comfy!:D I will say, however, that they slide on a wet tile surface. I have to be careful after it rains.:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruisenouvelle Posted May 31, 2007 #24 Share Posted May 31, 2007 I have them and love them! Have gotten many compliments. I ordered mine from Nordstrom about 3 months ago when they were offering free shipping. It pays to look around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frogfuzz Posted June 1, 2007 #25 Share Posted June 1, 2007 To clairfy what I meant by sticky , is they make my feet sweat and feel clammy I guess is a better word than sticky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
