Are Crocs shoes all that?

[HKfornow]

Ok, I admit to succumbing to peer pressure and bought my son a pair of crocs shoes, which is supposedly very comfortable, blah blah blah.

My sisters & I all tried the adult version and did not care for it. But my son seem to like it and is already on the verge of outgrowing it in weeks. . . so before I purchase another pair, I wanted to see how the other moms feel about these shoes, I know usually for "healthy" shoes the consensus seems to be that Dr. Kong & Stride Rite has the best, but how about crocs? Any opinions? Thanks.

don't know about healthy but my 18 month old son, given the choice ALWAYS chooses his crocs...

[carang]

they ARE ugly, aren't they!?!?!

I think they are adorable, for kids at least! Could someone advise where I could go get some for my 19 month old toddler? THANKS!

Check out at Log-on at Citysuper, Times Square. I think they carry toddler sizes.

fly & Carang, agree with you, they are quite ugly and that's why I was surprised how popular it is. I have to admit, my son seems to like it, but I don't know if it's just the novelty of it or the comfort factor.

Sumei, I got my son's shoes at Sogo, 5th floor I think, they have a small selection, alsos saw them at a few shops at TST Harbor City. Or go to their website to see the retail stores that carry their stuff.

my hubby just bought a pair today. he walks dogs for a living and so he needs very comfortable shoes. he said that he can't believe how comfy they are...

my 21mo loves it and always choose it than others, too. Please try out some shoes shops than big chains since they usually mark up alot higher. I got my son his pair about 20%cheaper than Log-ON at the shoes shop nearby to it.
