Advantages: Very practical and comfortable

Disadvantages: questionable fashion status; loud colours

I was a bit of a sceptic about these shoes, so i resisted getting a pair for a long time. My logic (odd I know) is that if everyone and his dog has a pair then they are probably just a bit of a fad and while they might be a 'must have' while they are in fashion, they probably won't be around for long!

BUT - my other half got a pair and told me how comfortable and pracitcal they were, so I was persuaded to give them a go. And I can testify that they are very comfortable - they have a shaped instep so they support your arches and also a slightly textured sole that sort of massages your feet when you walk (very pleasant!)

I probably wouldn't wear these in many public situations (probably doesn't help that mine are red!!) But they are very practical for:
* camping - great for when you step in and out of the tent as they are slip on. Not so good if you are in a very wet and muddy field though becuase of the 'breathable' holes
* going down the garden / allotment - you can just run them under a tap to get the mud off and slip them off on the way back into the house to avoid getting the hall / kitchen floor dirty!
* flying - if your feet swell on a plane then crocs will remain very comfortable, and you can slip them off easily to do your in - flight exercises.

Summary: a practical shoe for outdoor types!
