I need to get a pair of shoes that are comfortable to walk in for an upcoming vacation. I pretty much wear flip-flops yearound and really don't want to do socks with tennis shoes. I have heard a lot about how comfortable Crocs are, but have never owned a pair. My feet sweat really bad and I don't want to get a pair and have the farting noises and stinky shoes. Does anyone have a pair that they really like and would be great for walking all day? Here are the ones that I have been considering:

I have 4 pairs, including the middle pair in your list. I wore them during my disney vacation and was happy with them! Very cushy and springy! I never had any noises. LOL... dying at that thought! And I wore them as water shoes too. I wear them to work too (standing on a concete floor for hours at a time).

Well I dont own one but my kids have a lot of them and I read somewhere that they are odor-friendly (your feet wont stink), non-slippery and my kids love them, they wear them all year.
 
I love my crocs..I haven't seen that first pair but will be finding me some soon! lol...I wear mine pretty much daily, in Mississippi...in 98+ weather and my feet don't sweat or stink in them. Don't buy the knockoffs though b/c they will make your feet smelly as I learned with DS. They are SOO comfortable and they are the best thing ever invented for kids to wear I think.
 
i love the cleo, but can't stand wearing the mary janes. my feet get sweaty and i feel uncomfortable with the closed shoes. although my feet is sweaty, it didn't stink LOL
i only get the squeaky noises if the entire shoe is wet, like in the beach or rain water. i have not tried the newer styles, though.
 
I just bought a pair of Crocs at the outlet mall in Houston a few weeks ago. They are all I have worn since, and I haven't had any problems with stinky feet (and our temps have hit 108). They did sweat a little, LOL, but when it's 108 and your AC is broken, your feet are gonna sweat even if you're barefoot!
 
I have the first pair and I LOVE them. I wear them allt he time!! I was at the zoo all day in them and they were perfect. I have plantar faceitis and they are uber comfy for that too.
 
Well, I have 4 pairs of Crocs & love 3 of them! I have 2 of the original "Beach" styles and 1 in Malindi! I wear one of those 3 pretty much all the time! lol I wear them any time I know I'm gonna be walking or on my feet for a long time!
I also have the Juneau and hate them! But, what I don't like is where the elastic material is sewn in, the stitching is really rough and scratches my foot. But, the rest of the shoe is great. But, I will only wear them for very short periods of time.

I'm *pretty* sure they have free shipping right now too. :)
 
Huh... I must live under a rock, I didn't know that crocs had these type of styles, I only thought they had clogs which my weak ankles don't like. I just of the styles that you were showing, I'll have to get a pair myself! ;)
 
Oh! And I live in GA where it'll get up in the 100's with 100% humidity! Yes, my feet sweat some, but only b/c of the heat. They sweat when I'm not wearing my crocs. lol But, they never make noises or stink!

And I wore them as water shoes too. I wear them to work too (standing on a concete floor for hours at a time). I actually have 2 brand new pairs that I need to list on ebay that I'm selling since I bought them and missed the deadline to return them. :( (I had bought 4 pairs and only intended to keep 2.) If anyone wants to buy them (they are BRAND NEW) they are size 7. I'd sell them for $10 each + shipping.

I have the Malindi in brown size 7

Julie, I wish I had size 7 feet, what a great deal!
 
I have pair of the regular ones that I use for mowing grass and gardening. They are quite comfy. I haven't worn them for long walks or anything, so I don't know what they'd be like for that.

My kids wear them EVERYWHERE, they even had the Mammoth ones for winter, and I never heard any farting noises LOL.

I agree with Nikki, don't buy the knock offs, they do tend to smell like cheap sponge or something. Crocs have so many styles, I'm sure you'll find a pair you love!
 
Ditto to what everyone else has said about the comfort...they are so comfy & I have never had an issue with smelly feet!
 
I've always hated Crocs because of the way they look, but these new styles look great! And to hear you can wear them with plantar faciitis made me sit up and take notice! I've been stuck in 2 pairs of sandals all summer because of that.
 
I love my crocs!!!!!!!!! I was sad to see an article the other day that says it looks like the business is gonna go bust by September.
 
i kinda thought the clog style were sorta ugle so i never got any, lol. but these new styles are very cute! maybe i need a pair? Chloe has a pair of purple ones at grandmas, Aidan had a pair of sketchers lookalikes last summer and emma has a few pairs from walmart and they like them. i like the olivia in brown. wish i was a size 7, i'd buy yours julie, lol.

I've been curious though...the ones you buy at Disney World...are they Croc brand or are they another brand? ...does anyone have them?
 
Thanks for everyone's input! I think I am convinced to try a pair....hmmm, now to decide with one LOL!

Julie, if those shoes where one size smaller, I would totally take those off your hands.
 
I want a pair of the Mammoth ones...maybe for Christmas. Hopefully they'll be available then! I LOVE my Crocs...I wear them as slippers and if I have to run out to do something in the yard, but I don't go shopping in them or anything. They may not be stylish, but they sure are comfy!
 
I have 3 pairs of crocs and love all of them! My bright pink clogs are my work shoes what I LOVE about wearing crocs in the ED is that they aren't supposed to be able to harbor bacteria and with all the poo that I am around at work (sometimes literally) its nice to know. Plus they are easy to clean I have a brown pair of olivias that I wear with everything from jeans to dresses and another black pair of clogs that I wear for daily use in the garden and such.

My pink ones that I've had for 4 years, still fit great and give good support for an 8hour day on my feet. :thumbup:
 
I love my crocs, too!

I wasn't a fan until they started coming out with the cutesy kind!! I bought a pair of black mary janes and I swear I get more compliments when I wear them.

Plus, I have a big foot (size 9) and they do not look like boats which is a HUGE PLUS in my book!!

Go get you some, girl!!

My vote is for the first pair...I'm gonna go search for those for myself right now! Eeeeek!

Thanks, girls! I don't need anymore enabling!

I LOVE MY CROCS!!! :) I have a few pair also and my kids wear them 90% of the time!

I have 2 of these mary janes (brown & black):

I have this pair (Adara) and LOVE them. I could walk for hours in them!


I also have the last pair you showed (Patricia) and don't like them AT ALL. That particular style runs REALLY narrow for some reason and it's just not comfy to have a tight plastic strap across the top of your foot, IMO.
 
I love my Crocs flip flops!!!! I wear them all the time. I also have a couple pairs of Mary Janes I like but I love my flippers.

I had no idea they had all these different styles! heels no less?! she says shocked! lol Where do you all buy yours? You have me intrigued!

Cool that the Disney ones were crocs...I really didn't pay much attention to them because I didn't know they were that comfortable. I bought a knock-off and it made my feet sweat like crazy...so guess I needed the good stuff.
