Do you, have you, will you ever... wear Crocs?

[cheb]

Not genuine Crocs no, but I did buy a pair of ultra cheap similarly styled shoes for traipsing about when camping in Madagascar.

Cut down old wellies are my usual quick schlep outdoors footwear. Oversized too so I can wear them with neoprene footed waders.

One day peasant chic will be a thing.

It already is - among peasants.

[Taff]

we went on a university visit with 'MiniTaff' a few months ago and I was amazed at the number of youth that were wandering around campus on a saturday afternoon wearing crocs and socks

[v8-powered]

As 'garden shoes' though they're fine. I can't recall what I wore before? Probably just some older shoes that I struggled to get on and off quick enough to warrant yet another trip outside?

I have a pair of old Vans trainers that I've trodden the backs down on - they are my perfect garden shoes

12 years a go I bought a pair of Crocs, have worn them everyday since and am wearing them now.
all you haters

I've literally just got back from visiting another campsite and there were several tour operators staff wearing them and saying how much they like them.

For me though. I see Crocs like I see football team shirts. I just cannot take an adult seriously if they dress like that in public !?

[Buckaroo]

I have a handme down pink pair that I wear in the garden, garage, car cleaning...... I'm comfortable with myself not to worry what others may think.

Jesus, the poll is as close as the Brexit vote!

Who'd have thunk there were so many deviants on this forum?

[Skub]

Nope, it's pretty much boots or bare feet for me.

Same for me. Boots unless I'm in the shower or bed.

Still got tread on them! (Mine haven't and they're lethal on a damp patio or decking ).

You can customize your crocs aswel, follow these simple steps below...

1..Go to the draw with all the bits and bobs in.
2.. Locate the drawing pins.
3.. Insert into thick ends, toe and heel.
4..Go to tiled floor in the kitchen and pretend you are Roy Castle.

Congratulations, you have now successfully completed your first croc customization. Enjoy.

[Dodgy69]

Now then...from Thursday 20th at Aldi. Might stock up.

[Mr Moofo]

They're cheap, waterproof, virtually indestructible and convenient. That said, I wouldn't be seen dead in them outside the house obviously.

Ditto

I've moved on to plastic Birkenstocks.

I didn't have an iron at my UK house and had to run out and hurriedly buy one when I had a black tie event that evening and didn't have time to take my shirt to the dry cleaners, it struck me as ridiculous that I'd been ironing out creases all those years and not thinking how silly it was.

I'm not sure the ironing is even the silliest part

[Docca]

I’m not interested in fashion.

Yes, I’ve worn crocs when working at hospitals. They’re very comfortable for long shifts…and easy to clean.

I have a pair of knock off crocs (even more of a crime?) that sit at the back door that I use for gardening.

Both use cases for practicality

Ties are a bit anyway. (I used to have quite a collection - I now have 4. Nice one for matchings and hatchings, black one for despatchings and 2 black bow ties, one on elastic and one 'proper' one....in case I get a job as a bouncer or concierge. ).

[Mr. Dazzle]

I quite like wearing a suit, shirt and tie etc when the need arises actually, but it seldom does

Might join the cool middle aged middle managing mid level types and wear a blazer and jeans
