Agreed. Great for little kiddies in the summer months. But yes if your over the age of 10 and your not at the beach/campsite/holiday then please don'tCycling - The pastime of spending large sums of money you don't really have on something you don't really need.0

If worn by adults they must be weirdos who just like the feel of rubber next to their feet :shock:
What do I ride? Now that's an Enigma!0 -
crocs are rad! I've just spent the whole of the summer in mine. At first I thought they were a bit weird but needed some indoor shoes and something durable, easy to clean and hygenic for working in the lodge and specifically the kitchen. And at 30quid you cant go wrong. they're light and they're comfortable- once you get passed the initial ugly/pointless phase of them they're awesome.

anyone who uses the word "rad" must be odd anyway.
oh, and i love the; "once you get passed the initial ugly/pointless phase of them they're awesome" bit. how does that work!? that's the same as admitting you've bought somthing totally ugly and crap and actually love it...Only the meek get pinched. The bold survive.0 -
I find all this aesthetic criticism of crocs amusing coming from a bunch of people who choose to go to work in lycra...

i don't.
besides, some people have the right body to carry off lycra. crocs will always look shite regardless.

Quite like them myself - haven't actually got any though - does it matter if people wear them to a forum meeting of a local council - probably shouldn't wear them to a funeral - or at least choose a dark colour.

As soon as you can find cheap knock-offs of anything down the market / in pound shops / ebay or down the market, it's hurriedly time to stop wearing / using / desiring them as they've become irreputably naff. Crocs were a weird curiosity last year - this year, they're OK if you're under 10.Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..0

Well if you were wearing them to be fashionable yes, if you were wearing them because you thought they looked good or were practical then I can't see what's changed between last year and this. Think for yourself rather than jumping on the latest bandwagon.

G. W. Bush wore a pair with black ankle socks and shorts...'nuff said really.0

One of my colleagues wears his everywhere, meetings, training courses (that he delivers), with suits, in absolutely any scenario I've seen him!
He has been wearing them for as long as I've worked at the company (13 months). Before then apparently he used to wear sandals with his suits!0 -
My sister-in-law tells me there is now a winter croc that has a fleece lining :roll:0

The last sentence sums it up, really - to me they always looked like novelty kids' shoes from day one.

1. Go into your local Hospital
2. Try telling the Nurses that they can't wear one of the most comfortable, practical and easily cleaned pairs of shoes they have ever had
3. Remove various rectally placed instruments s you leave!<b><i>He that buys land buys many stones.

I got a pair of copies for £7, refuse to pay £30 for something made for 10p from recycled plastic in china.
Originally bought for campsites and shower blocks but now wear them when pottering about the house and garage, washing the car and bikes etc.
ps; they are red and match my frame. :oops:
