Never thought I would buy some thing like this. Went to Academy the other day and there was a crowd around a Display of Croc Shoes. They were 44.99 which I thought was too high. They were up front by the fishing lures. I hate the looks of these things, but my feet were hurting me and somebody said something about them being comfortable. I picked out my size and walked all the way back to the shoe department to try them on. Back in the shoe department they were maked 39.00. I tried them on and I was sold. I bought the ugliest shoes I ever owned and wore them bow fishing that night. My feet felt great.
 
I wear out a pair a year it seems. I don't wear the girly looking models though. Max 4HD camo or nothing here

. They are very comfortable and relieve a lot of my heel pressure problems. They go on as soon as I get home from work and get worn year round. Gotta replace them as soon as the tread is gone though. I've skated across many a wet floor wearing them

I own a pair of Mossy oak Crocs(I call them Gators). But the ugliest pair of shoes I own is a pair of Fila Skeletoes also in camo! They are fugly but by god there comfortable.

. Not ideally suited for shoveling snow, but good enough to fetch another frosty one off the porch without getting wet, cold feet

rocks get in don't sound comfortable to me, but I'm tender footed

Yeah crocs are great- they saved my feet from plantar fasciitis after I began wearing them all the time around the house. I have worn out several pair but they last a long time. Be careful they are very slippery on wet slick floors when the tread is worn flat. A great product!
 
You can get them without the holes but in warm weather they will make your toes damp because they don't breath.

I have a pair with heavy fleece lining that I use for bedroom slippers, they are great on a camping trip to run out to the biffy in the middle of the night even in snow.

My favorite pair has Mickey Mouse shaped cut outs that my grand daughter gave me.

Living out here on the coast where 70 degrees is a warm day and it rains 8 months of the year I wear them with wool socks year round. Nice to be able to kick them off at the door and know they will dry out in a few min.

I have a friend that wears nothing else, and sockless year round, no matter the weather or temps.
I think there's something wrong with that boy.

My buddy wears a pair, but with a T-shirt that says
"Yeah, they may be confortable, but they look GAY!"
I guess that how he justifies wearing them. Me? never!

I have thinking about picking up a pair to wear at the watermark next weekend when I take the wife and kids. Hearing that they are indeed comfortable I think I may get a pair

Personally, I couldn't care less what others think about what I wear. Then again, if someone thinks your "gay" because you wear crocs then they are an ignorant moron and there is even less cause to listen to their opinions.

I'm not much into wearing camo everything, but in this case I think max4 is the way to go. Plus it will match my duck hunting gear when I shed my waders for the ride home

I think you got on your soap box a little too quick to see the self depreciating humor he was showing. I don't care whos gay, I just don't like those plastic shoes.

I wasn't referring to you, I was referring to the comments about crocs that I hear all the time when guys wear them.
 
I have a guy that works with me that wears his in the office and gets a pretty good beat down for it to. They must be comfortable as all get out for him to keep wearing them considering the brow beating he gets.
