Wow, wow, wow!

I bought my first, second and third pair of Crocs in Whitby this weekend. I was going to put sunny Whitby ..... but it wasn't!

The Crocs are so comfortable and I was able to sound very knowledgeable in the shop talking about the rivets!!!!!

Well Dave you caught me out, I didn't enter their site because with dial-up those flash pages take ages to load. Now I see that they are also making models with straps but when I got mine there was only one style and it was strapless. I guess they are trying to compete with the competition. If you are contemplating getting some I recommend them highly, not only are they very comfortable but, for me, they have proven to be therapeutic for plantar fasciitis. They stay on quite nicely without straps.

The straps look pretty similar to me, right down to the rivets. How come the Croc ones break and the Holey ones don't?

We need to know these things!

:D

If you get a pair of Holey Soles, the originals knocked off by Crocs, you won't have the problem of broken straps.

I don't have any crocs but I have been considering buying some. I did wonder if the minute anything went would they have to go straight in the bin.

It would never occur to me to look up croc rivets so it is worth knowing that they sell them; I'm more likely to buy some now.

They do look very comfortable.

That's useful to know. Me & the missus think ours are great and we have about 8 pairs in total. Looks like they just push together with finger power.

ShoeSite (UK) Rivet Page
As I have had two go - but then I do dance in them. Very comfortable for the purpose. I have bought 12 rivets - just in case (I have two pairs and Joy has three). I expect a hammer, vice or pliers will be suffient for the repair.
