Croc-lemmings

I resisted the Crocs craze for a long time. I didn't want to look like everyone else, or let my kids look like everyone else. I thought they looked lazy, like you didn't have the energy to put real shoes on. I thought they would be a trend we'd look back on and say "What on Earth were we thinking!?"

Then I gave in and got Buddha a pair of generic ones.

And I was hooked. Now both kids wear them far too much. And it's far too easy. And I'm getting Husband some. And I even considered getting myself some.

And there you have it. Just like that my entire family became lemmings.

Ahhh... Peer Pressure! They are easy and really really comfortable, but I won't wear mine out, usually around here or to the pool. Munchkin wears hers pretty much everyday...

I love the Croc Flip Flops, but I too won't wear mine out unless it's just to the grocery store.

Perfect for playing outside with the kiddos though.

I'm torn on the crocs. They are the most comfy shoes ever, but they are pretty ugly. So...I wear them. No longer the original ones, just the mary jane ones. I like that they aren't as wide.

We succumbed to the crocs a while ago, so comfy, so easy and yes very very lazy but hey why the hell not, at least all of ours, mine, man's and 2 boys are all black, no lime green for us, somehow that makes it alright for me :)

I hate Crocs for the most part BUT I got some of the contoured flip flops (with the cloth straps) and they are feet heaven...
