I have a funny story (and I didn't want to start another thread because there are some people in such pain, that I didn't want to take any attention away from their problems).

But I did have an odd experience today with my shoes. I was given a pair from Dr. Comfort. I was measured, they came with inserts (which I promptly took out because I hated them). So when I first got them (about 8 months ago during the summer time) I used to go for walks. Sometimes they pinched in the toe box area, but I attributed that to my toe nail having not been trimmed on one of my toes. But I always make sure my toes nails are cut properly. I haven't worn the Dr. Comfort shoes in about 6 months.

Well after that one incident I began to wear crocs during the summer and into the winter. I got used to my crocs. I LOVE MY CROCS. Got them in every color. I think I've worn these Dr. Comfort shoes about 4 times since I got them.

So I haven't worn the Dr. Comfort shoes until today.

The sun was shining, so I decided to walk 20 blocks to the produce stores.

Well, (and I didn't race walk or anything), just walked normally, listening to my music).

Well, by the time I got to 10 blocks, my toes (especially on the left shoe) were killing me. I stopped dead in my tracks and said "what the???"

I knew immediately I had to take it S L O W until I got to a ninety nine cents store and see if that had a cheap pair of crocs. (That's the only kind I wear). I've paid from $1.99 to $3.99) for all my crocs.

Couldn't find a store for 4 blocks. Then I limped into the Value City Store, and there were a whole display stand full of crocs in every size and color.

I immediately bought my usual Size 11. I wear a Size 10 normally but in crocs I'm an 11.

Well, you should have seen the relief on my face when I walked out of that store. I also bought them in white for the summer. $3.99 each.

That is the only shoe I'm putting on. I had absolutely no trouble walking the rest of the way home.

I know that Crocs have a wider than usual toe box (and Donald Trump had a whole episode devoted to Crocs just last week).

I will never put those stupid Dr. Comfort shoes on again. And these are special diabetic shoes??? I don't think so.

Anybody else have horror stories about wearing shoes and then you were saved by your Crocs???

cyclelops 02-02-2008 07:47 PM

So, how did they get named that? Crocs???

Just curious....odd name for a shoe. I suppose 'Gators' was taken already...(not that those are shoes?)....Maybe it is time to start a Croc thread....I have a hunch this could go on for a while.....:D

MelodyL 02-02-2008 07:57 PM

Hi there.

A long time ago, there was such a thread. All about Crocs and how ugly they were. I remember saying "I'll never put a pair on my feet"

Now, I won't wear anything else.

Now how ironic is that!!!

I was going shopping today with my husband and dressed nicely. At the last minute I took off the shoes I had on and put on my Crocs! I just couldn't face all that walking and standing around on cement floors in any shoes except my Crocs! My ensemble suffered, but I was sooooo happy! The hilarious thing is, I have been in a couple of very expensive shoe stores lately that sell to people with diabetic foot problems. They are selling a very expensive knock off of Crocs for about $60! I do buy the real thing -- name brand Crocs. But they are only $30. I don't have all the low cost options here. But they are well worth it at any price! The best shoe in the world! (But I have to admit, I think they are ugly.)
