    to all the people who commented before me. if you are such supporters of crocs, then why would you waste your time reading an article AGAINST them? and you all know that many people feel prejudiced about Crocs, this author just brought it to light. and, use spell check if you want to sound smarter than the author. and yes, i think crocs are ugly and i am embarrassed of knowing anybody who owns a pair.

    I do have to agree with you. However, I do have to say they have a great charity program. They recycle old, run down Crocs, and ship them to third world contries. Perhaps, a child in a little village in Africa has something to put on his feet for protection, and I am sure he is saying the same thing, THESE ARE THE UGLIEST THINGS I HAVE EVER SAW!!! To make matters worse, when recycled, they become the most disgusting shade of brown.

    I HATE CROCS! They are so hideous!

    CROCS have the equivalent fashion statement of an extremely overweight , middle-aged woman wearing a hand painted tee shirt or a tee shirt with kittens on it. AAARGH!!!! and I'm an overweight middle-aged woman, but dang..... I can't seem to force those sad, ugly things on me, even if you paid me!!!

    Lame. There are worse things out there to worry about besides fashion.

    Wow, get a grip folks...there are many other, more pressing, issues in this world to get upset about.

    Okay, comments to this are unnecessary. It's a shoe. A moneymaker. And they're rich. Bottom line. It's a shoe. GET OVER IT. Hate it or not. Then don't help them get even more rich. Get OVER it.

    Are you sure you don't want to run for president? Thats the first common sense article I've read all day. While you're at it please write an article encouraging men to ban tightey whities, as an underwear option, after the age of 12. Those also won't get you laid. Hopefully, your rant will finally get americans to realize the fashion void we sometimes find ourselves in. Crocs are just one example of this.

    Thank you so much! and to those who laughed at you for the immaturity and perhaps humorous insanity of your article, really if we can't laugh at and debase ridiculous trends, we aren' t American anymore. judgment is the basis of our country for crying out loud. Life is to short to be serious, so unhitch your belt go dancing and have some fun in your life. BTW please don't wear crocs they are garden shoes and they look stupid, they are not fashonable and three fourths of the genral public thinks you're embarrassing yourself, if you're wearing them as a statement against this.....YOU STILL LOOK RIDICULOUS! thank you and goodnight.

    You must not have a life for complaining so badly about people wearing crocs. What is it to you? So what if people like to wear crocs. It's their business, that's the great thing about America. The sad thing is that you got paid for writing about something so stupid as complaining about crocs. No one is forcing you to wear crocs. I don't particularly like crocs either, but I don't dwell on it. I feel bad for your kid for having a father that is passing down his annoying habit of forcing his fashion sense onto someone else. Get a life.

    It's a shoe.

    Get over it.

    I don't understand why people get so worked up over this. Let people do whatever the **** they want. It's their style and their choice so what if you hate them? I don't think they're cute either, atleast not the original ones, but I'm not going to laugh at everyone who walks by. It may be such a stupid issue, but it's people like you who care about such petty things that cause a lot of problems. Stop judging people and get over it. What next laughing at people who have ears? Wtf dude stop.

    This isn't just a problem in America! My husband and I saw crocs for sale in Italy on our honeymoon. They were for sale in the so called "fashion capital of the world". I can't believe people actually think these look good. However, If you look back in fashion history, we have made many mistakes and we look back and laugh. It will just be a matter of time before we all look back and laugh.

    I can't believe that my comment was censored just because I said Doc Martins' were worse.

    Ever since I saw the first pair of crocs at a some store, I thought: "wow there's a pair of germs and bacteria incubators that will rot your feet, nobody would buy those" then I was slapped in the face by the fact that now every person in the US has a pair. But my heart goes out to the writer because thankfully I don't live in the US so I don't have to see them everyday :)

    Broc, you know what else rhymes with Croc? Broc! And pot really doesn't support terrorism, world leaders do so they can laundry money and keep people scared= under control. Now, i hate the bloody, Crocs, because they are butt ugly, certainly a turn off; and I actually thought tyey were a Dutch invention becaue they look like the local wooden shoes( and walk just as weird>). Comfortable or not, would you wear a loose woven paper ??bag because it was comfy too? Ypud look like a potato sack- ant crocs have the saeeffect. yes, i am a fashoin person;and I do have right to criticise; and so far hasn'tbeen off the point. Now, if you wanna cross a wetland, or hideaway in the country- where potatoes are welcome- go for it. But they guy is right- you might just wear slippers to work- its too comfotable!

    haha i totally agree with you, my grandfather actually bought me a pair for my BIRTHDAY i almost cried, my boyfriend took me to the mall so we could return them and they actually have entire stores devoted to selling these hideous "shoes". we walked into the store and as he looked around the only words that came out of his mouth were "Wow. There IS a hell."

    In reply to rohitb123: If you're going to stand up for these monstrosities, at least spell it right-- Crocks and corcs? Please. You're a perfect example of just the kind of person who would buy those ugly pieces of crap.

    • Posted By: uknowme @ 08/05/2008 5:21:51 PM

      WRONG! They are CROCS! If you're going to criticize spelling, check ya self first!
