They're actually so comfy. I used to be in the croc haters gang until I got over myself and tried them. They're durable, comfy, cool out in the desert heat, easy to clean, and can be made to stay on my feet securely when needed. People need to get tf over what other people are wearing. Everyone has to be less comfortable because of these dweebs policing what's "proper" to wear and it's actually bs. Some rich stuck up aholes decided what clothing is acceptable/professional and we all just got stuck with it forever.

Fellow croc hater convert here. I'm a disabled veteran with bad feet and spend most of time indoors wearing slippers. Got tired of buying a new pair ever year from excessive wear. Finally tried some crocs and my feet have never been happier, not to mention I'm still on my first pair nearly 4 years later. I will never not own at least one pair going forward.

Oooh this is what I did too - recent convert here, I saw them becoming the new 'fashion' and I'm weak and decided to try them because people would not shut up about how comfy they were.

Now my favourite part about coming home is taking off my outdoor shoes and getting to put the Crocs on. They have no business feeling that divine. If I lived in a more temperate and dry place, I'd buy more for outdoor use. Any shame or embarrassment I may have initially felt about wearing them is gone.

There are other shoes with a lot of dampening in the sole, like Hooka (used by virtually all hospital workers in my country). Personally, I think it's too much and prefer something firmer.

Are you suggesting those as alternatives for outside? Is it this brand you're talking about?
