Advantages: Easy to put on, Machine Washable, Great for Kids

Disadvantages: Sole wears down Sizing is vague

I am going to review the childrens ones that I had for my son. He of course had a blue pair.

When I first saw them I wasnt too sure. They seemed to be a cross between an ugg and a croc. Also do boys wear them...??

Anyway when I saw the price I realised they were on sale for such a small amount...hey bargain.. they will be great I am sure he would look fine in them....well that is what I kept telling myself.

When he tried them on he thought they were great... at least he is will wear them.

He was able to put them on himself which was a great advantage. There are no buckles or zips. He wore them with jeans so you never saw the upper part only the blue croc style part.

He loved wearing to the point where he wouldnt take them off, I think they were just too comfortable and slipper like.

The sole part is a foamy plastic texture which is slightly ribbed on the sole to help against slipping. The upper part is faux sheepskin effect which was all the way through the inside of the boots.

They were great in the rain as the bottom part is waterproof. Also they are very easy to wash. You can just pop them in the washing machine and the dry beside the radiator...

The only down side was that because my son wore them all the time the sole did wear away but because his feet are continually growing you wouldn't even considering any sort of re-soling.

Great for kids to wear... not sure about us grown ups to be honost. But the choice is an individual one. They are worth getting if you love comfortable footwear like crocs but need a winter version.

Summary: Comfotable footwear if you enjoy wearing croc but need a winter version
