THe only thing to be said in favour of crocs is they are made of a synthetic material that is really comfortable.
After a lifetime of walking round the house barefoot
about 2 years ago the pain started to come from nowhere and get worse,
so I took a chance on a pair of Amazon lightning sale crocs,
and the pain mostly disapeared.
Since being diagnosed with fallen arches and arthritis,
the NHS specialist told me many of his patients adopt crocs as slippers,
which he approves of.

Apparently they are worn by many hospital staff,
and I saw a documentary on a trawler where the skipper was wearing them.

Crocs look like complete twat shoes, and are a health and safety hazard
because the soft material expands by up to a couple of shoe sizes,
so they are forever slipping about and catching and knocking on things,
and likely to cause trips and falls.
They have been linked to a spate of serious accidents on shopping mall escalaters...

But they are soooo comfortable...
Mine are black btw..
I do admit to having a pair that haven't stetched yet that are handy for nipping out to the corner shop for fizzy pop....
