She does wear the Mary Janes...but those are just not wide enough for me. Thanks so much for coming by - hope to see more of you!<BR/><BR/>Christy--My girls actually like to wear two different colored crocs. It started out because they could only find one. Because, of course, you might take off one when you walk in the door, and then run and crawl under your bed and take the other off. And forget both deposits. Then it just became something fun to do to get me to roll my eyes.

I have a pair, but they don't give me quite the support as my regular ones - which I "think" are the Caymans. We did have some horrid weather...but our area was not hit with the tornados...just some pretty amazing wind - non-stop for 24 hours. I had not noticed that Dubya's socks were presidential socks...funny...funnier :-)<BR/><BR/>Nicole--Oh, I love that I might have found some converts. You ought to go and try some on. You won't be a true convert until after a few days when your body heat allows them to mold to your feet. Just remember they are supposed to be big. And crocs...thy name is comfort.<BR/><BR/>BDS--Welcome - I am guessing you are the one that found me via the google search "comfortable shoes?"

So many blogs out there just trash Crocs but in 20 years their pathetic bunion-y feet will no longer fit into 5 inch stilettos and they will finally concede what we've known all along--Crocs (not all styles) extremely foot friendly.

My FIL wears them all the time. My footwear of choice in winter is Uggs. (Not because famous folk espouse them, but because they are super-comfortable.) In the summer, though, it's full-on flipflops. The cheaper the better. <BR/><BR/>And I love Dubya in his Crocs AND socks. Because as you can see in the picture, they are Presidential Socks and I'm sorry, but that just rocks. R-O-C-K-S!<BR/>p.s.

I like all the varieties of colors. We only have two pairs in our house. My 6 yr old has a bright red pair (his fav color) and he would wear them day and night if he could. He wears them to school two days a week but cannot the other three because those are PE days and they can't wear them in PE. The older son has a pair of knock-off camo crocs. Poor child...needs some real ones. lol<BR/><BR/>I might give in and get some this summer. It's just so hot around here and they're great pool shoes...<BR/><BR/>Great post!
