Crocs - Good or Bad? [poll]

I admit, I'm pretty out of touch with what's hip or passé these days. What's the skinny on Crocs? My Tevas are falling apart and I need new summer footwear. This article intrigued me: By Executive Order, Crocs Aren't Chic http://www.washingtonpost...6/21/AR2007062102403.html |

I thought I was the only person in California who didn't wear them.

Weird, I rarely see them around me, or maybe I'm just hanging out with the wrong people. Berkeley still seems to be Birkenstock country, and the south bay seems to have a lot of hiking-style sandals. |

Laura wears Crocs every day at the hospital and swears by them. I think they're ugly as sin, but comfort goes a long way. Speaking of ugly but comfortable, have you considered Keens? I have a couple of pairs and love them. |

I have a couple of pairs and love them. Those look cool. They look much better than Crocs. What style(s) do you have? |

Crocs are lame as hell and they look cheap not to mention stupid.
Of course I'm a hippy potzer that wears Birkenstocks sometimes.
LOL at shrub wearing socks and sandals. OMG what a *fudge*in moran ass tool.

I have a couple of older styles that aren't available anymore but they're similar to the Ashland and the Pacifica. This summer I'm planning on picking up a pair of the Newports. |

The only thing I can think of is that he was about to change into real bike shoes, based on his (presidential seal) bike socks.  |

I have crocs and chaco's. Crocs are okay for around the house garage. They make my feet hot when I'm outside. In the summer I wear my Chaco's all the time. They last forever and are availabel at REI as well. They are like Teva's and don't have any velcro. I dislike velcro. http://www.rei.com/online/store/Search?storeId=8001&langId=-1&catalogId=40000008001&brandQuery=Chaco&showPictures=1
