Furry boots in 80+ degree weather...yeahh. LOL! More power to those who like Crocs, though.

Uggs are amazing, I have a pair of "Ultras" that I've worn probably 9 months out of the year, 5 days a week, for about 12 years. They still look "OK" and aren't falling apart. I think they're quite an amazing value. I hope to get a new pair next winter. I love the "gunmetal" slightly metallic ones but am unsure how the "Classic" wears. The sole is much thinner. Crocs - I don't have any, but if they're as comfortable as you say, go for 'em. I think you should put me down as a "no" tho.

The good thing about Uggs is they keep your feet warm but not hot, even when it's not that cold outside! Must be the magic of sheepskin! They are soooo comfortable. Saw some turquoise-colored ones at Nordstrom's tonight. They were the short style and if they had them in the tall style I'd have been in big trouble! LOL
Originally Posted By oc_dean I bought my very first pair of crocs at DtD's Rainforest Cafe ... And now they are a necessity as much as underwear are!

But you just can't get ANY croc. You have to get the "genuine" thing. I was once in a Target .. bought an imitation pair. Thought all were the same. But the foot/arch support was awful. They were more "plastic" than rubber. Makes a big difference. Went back to Rainforest in DtD .. and got a replacement pair after learning my lesson from getting cheapies at Targét.

You know, on top of the beach, athens and patra I already own I can't remember who said they wanted to try the sandals type, but I highly recommend it, they're great

Originally Posted By smedley I have really hot feet, so uggs would not be for me even if I liked them! amazed, have you tried the stockists list online and maybe ringing some stores that are local to see if they have them in stock?

Originally Posted By trekkeruss I have hot, sweaty, fallen arches feet. Crocs are the best shoes I have ever had. My feet don't get hot or sweaty, and I can and do wear them all day. I only wear Crocs now, and have nine pairs of 'em. I like the Off Road model better than the original Beach or Cayman styles; the Off Road has a protective toe cap, and a more substantial sole that doesn't wear out so quickly.
Originally Posted By mickeynewe I now own the pink Disney ones, black mary jane style, black Malindi style, and have the All Terrain's coming. I am going to keep my eye out in their outlet section for new sandals come the end of the season. Oh, and they had a special on their sling backpack the other day. Was 50% off when buying a pair of shoes. So I added that to my order at the last moment. Check out shoebuy.com too. They offer free shipping both ways if they don't fit. The prices are comparable to the normal price of the shoes. I just ordered this time directly because they were outlet items I was buying. Normal price for my All Terrains were 59.95, I got at the outlet for only $9.95! Loved Shoebuy's free shipping though when ordering the new Malindi's. Worry-free buying if they didn't fit!
