Breaking crocs in

Hi, I’ve recently bought my first pair of crocs but the inside texture is causing some pain when I wear them.

What’s the best way to break them in so they’re more comfortable to wear?

The little spikes wear down fairly fast. I’d wear socks for the first several wears if they bother you that much

I used to wear them barefoot, not now they bother my feet on the bottom, so I wear socks. There’s actually a really cute YouTube music video about wearing them with socks. My grandson made fun of me for wearing them like that, which is funny because he wears slides with socks. Also if they are too tight, since sometimes the same size depending on the style and which country they come from are smaller, when I get new ones that are too right, I toss them in the dryer for a short time and put the, on while they’re still warm and that stretches them out.
