    crocs are very comfortable shoes. I am on my feet 8 hours a day or more. standing all day pretty much and when I wear them my feet and legs never ache. If i wear anything else they ache terribly. and if you dont want to pay the price of crocs brand you can always buy knockoffs and walmart prices that are just as comfortable and you can buy them in calm colors such as white and black and tan. So you prolly should be dicussing something more important that footwear really!

    Overated! Sorry, but your story should never have been in the first page MSN.com. There are pleny of interesting things about our world that people should be reading about. Not your OCD over Crocs. Now, if you were audition for the Next Comic Standing, maybe you would have a chance, but you still would have to support what you're talking about with a "good" cause, not only because you don't like the shoes!

    I won't wear those myself because they make your feet look bigger than they are, but alot of people say they are comfortable. It's called a fashion fad, don't we all go through some fad at one point?! I remember girls wearing those Jelly shoes all in different colors, Michael Jackson jackets, Madonna's lace gloves etc. I'm sure there was something popular before my time. To have to write about something you hate with a passion means you need to Chill out!! That's good you put your anger in words though, sure don't want see some guy going off in a rampage over some shoes!!

    How delightfully inspired! No doubt my sarcasm is lost on you. We've all known for a long time that Crocs looked horrible and should only be worn while gardening. Your article is trite and may be the least witty piece of op-ed I've seen hit a large news source in a long time.

    I wonder what Mr Tuttle thinks about heelys those annoying shoes with wheels in the heels?

    That's so silly i wear crocs plain black ones and I am on my feet all day and in wearing any other shoe my feet and legs ache but with these crocs my feet never hurt. Before you complain about something so silly maybe you should try wearing a pair. and find something more important to talk about than what ppl have on there feet.

    And the list grows...I love this article..Best & Funniest thing Ever..Let every pair of whatever-colored crocs they are Burn..

    Come on! A little pair of camo crocs are so cute on a toddler! I totally agree that an adult should NEVER wear them, so tacky! My brother-in-law wears them with socks!!! And makes his kids wear socks with them! Bad parenting. I appreciate the article though... hope it changes things.

    I have to admit that I stand on a line when it comes to crocs. I would absolutely never pay the price for a pair of real crocs, and I have NEVER wore a pair, real or knock off, into public before. I do however allow my children to wear them. They are comfortable as well as easy for them to put on and take off alone. I can't handle the crazy colors and fur lined crocs, I think that if it's about comfort it should be about basics, black, brown, tan, white, and navy. I would also like to say that the one pair I have purchased for myself I wear while I irrigate my yard. They are fantastic!

    Wow, I mean I know I'll never wear crocs, and yeah I think they're ugly but I never thought there are people in the world, especially in the U.S. who would actaully hate them to the core. To the extreme of if someone is wearing a pair, the haters would like nothing to do or have in common with that person. We all have are brights and downs, and we all think of fashion and style differently. So of cousre there are going to be people in the world with different taste, but we shouldn't hate one another for our for the way we look. And I don't believe rasing a child the way you are is appropiate either, but hey this is the U.S. and you have your opinion and I have mine.

    I totally agree. We should all wear the same thing as to not offend or challenge anyone's fashion sense. Then we would not have stupid articles like this. I read the whole thing looking for any redeeming value and could not find it. It was not funny. It was not informative (other than to inform the reader of the author's shallowness and pettiness). It was pathetic. And yes, you should also teach your child to judge people by the color of their skin. That's the next step. And, by all means, attach derogatory names to those skin colors.

    A couple points and I will forget I wasted my time reading this article.
    1. I can't believe you would allow your son to label people for the type of shoe they are wearing...GREAT parenting *golf clap*
    2. The only reason I can find that Croc warehouses have an over abundance of shoes is because of the
    MANY off label brands (Walmart, Target & Payless offer a similar item for a fraction of the price).
    3. Though I agree that they are a fashion catastrophe, they are very comfortable. For people in the medical industry they are a god sent...there has yet been a shoe made other than crocs that remain comfortable for 10+hours.
    Before you start going off on how a SHOE needs to be thrown out because YOU and a handful of others think they are ugly how bout applying for QUEER EYE FOR THE STRAIGHT GUY and getting rid of the PLEATED DOCKERS.

    they even have made them for cell phones now. with jewels. Come on really? yes really Go into you local Cell retailer and see. I work at one and well try not to sell them,

    Well I understand your point of view, but it's just your OPINION. I don't see anyone else writing a whole article about certain clothes you wear and saying it should be discontinued. Further more, you're a father and you're teaching your son to worry about stupid things like CROCS when there's a lot bigger things happening around the world. Wow, good job "dad."

    Whoever wrote this is story is a DORK. Obviously you have nothing else to do, but write stories about crocs and how lame they are. Do you not have anything else to write about or do? Why dont you write about something that is more important than writing about how stupid people are for wearing crocs and how ugly they are. Write something that is important; like politics or something. America has really gone down hill if all we have to write about is crocs. Crocs are just shoes that people where because they want to. If I wanted to go around and write about stupid things, I would write about those pitted-out T shirts that are more than a quarter of a century old that you where.

    • Posted By: builderofsandcastles @ 08/05/2008 2:52:55 PM

      I get tired of hearing about the "important" issues in the world, I want some humor sometimes! Why should we be serious all the time? I am unsure, but I bet more people watch the late night shows than watch the news! Why because they have the same kind of humor this article has. And you read it, need I say more? Oh, how many articles have you written lately about "important" issues? Are you politically active in trying to uphold the constitution and our rights and are you trying to get the government to allow us to become energy independent or are you just sitting there doing nothing? Judge not others . . . look in the mirror. (oh, wrong spelling of "where" by the way - we "wear" clothes, "where" is a location.)

    LMAO!!! We all think that Crocs are horrible looking but you actually SAID it outloud, KUDOS to you! Of course the hand off is that they are comfy. And people who are freaking out calling you bad names because of this article really just need to get a sense of humor, this is just an opinon. I don't believe that you are doing any harm to your son, and as a matter of fact I compliment you for spending time with him which is worth much more than gold! Please do go on, I really enjoyed this one!

  • Posted By: knga @ 08/05/2008 2:22:15 PM

    wow. you really enjoy hating crocs. you spent two pages convincing us how much you hate them. i think you must really like them. come on, you know you want some. the article is funny, but seriously, it's really not ok or a very adult thing to do to teach your child to call someone names because of there choice in fashion. that's kind of immature.

    • Posted By: Burrell5 @ 08/05/2008 2:51:08 PM

      Immature? This comes from someone who doesn't know the difference between 'their' and 'there'. It is very hard for me to take a criticism seriously from someone who has the grammar capabilities of a 7 year old.

    To all the negative people who are responding to this article-"Relax people- WHERE IS YOU SENSE OF HUMOR..........??????????????? "
