              Slides are literally Crocs, not even metaphorically.

              Crocs also last significantly longer than any basic slides I’ve ever purchased. Including cheapo Amazon’s, Walmarts, Adidas, and Nikes.

            Completely covering the entire top of your foot is even worse. So itchy and sweaty. I’ll take the strap between the toes any day. Only time I’ll wear anything other than flip flops is because I have to for work or a formal event.

          I always get a laugh out of why they chose Crocs. For anyone uninformed, see Mike judge quote below:

          The wardrobe had to be something that’s not around now. It had to be created for a lot of extras, and so you know our wardrobe person was looking for ways to make the budget work. And Crocs were not out in the world yet. They were just a small startup at the time. We shot in 2004, so no one was wearing Crocs. And she showed me these things, and I thought, 'Oh those are great, just stupid plastic shoes. And I said to her, ‘But you actually bought these, you can order these. What if by the time the movie comes out, these things are everywhere, and it doesn’t look like we’re set in the future?’ And she said, 'Oh no, that’s never going to happen. And sure enough, by the time it comes out two years later, everyone is wearing Crocs. So it already started coming true even faster than we made the movie, really.

      They’re actually great for wading at the beach.

      Near where I live is a shallow (waist deep) bay with a rocky sandy bottom: barefoot not advised. There’re great for walking out into the shallows and helping the kids in kayaks or whatever.

      Or gardening.

    Crocs are kinda magic. Try running with them while wearing socks in “”“sport mode”“”. In my experience it actually makes you run faster because the foam is fairly springy. I can run fast enough that I can’t keep up with my feet and risk tripping.

      It is clearly the raw croc power that makes you trip…certainly not because you’re running in a slip on sandal.

        Dude, I know it sounds silly, but I swear I run faster with them on hard surfaces. They’re really springy and thick socks keep them from sliding around on my feet so they’re actually not as clumsy as you’d think (or at least they don’t feel that way). I wouldn’t intentionally go running in them because I bet regularly running in them destroys your joints or something.

        Though now I’m tempted to do an experiment to see if they actually make me run faster or if it just feels that way.

        Also, I promise I’m not a complete fashion disaster; I only wear socks with them if I already have socks on.

        Who told you I made the cheetah wear my sandal(s)? That cheetah is my friend. And who told you to put an eagle in a sandal? Confess your crimes, or be remanded to the Palace of Justice for processing.
