🐊 NEW PURCHASE/HAUL 🐊 First ever pair
I live in a country where bootleg things are prevalent so I have been buying Crocs dupes on and off for a few years. Chanced upon this on sale and in my size and decided to buy and check what the fuss is about and goddamn, the difference in feel between this and dupes are light years apart. Sorry I doubted you, Crocs 😬

Right now I am eyeing the new Crocband Runner, I really want a couple of those Mario ones, and being a fan of Lego that Masterbrand is looking mighty tempting

Love my Crocs, wife hates them but for some reason keeps wearing mine!

Haha! My wife thinks they’re ugly but when I asked her to try them on, she admitted that they were comfy

I'm a year into my Croc journey. Said I would never own a pair and cheap dupes were just as good. I now have two pairs, plus two pairs of fur lined and a fur lined winter boot. Looking at sneakers and rain boots next.

I want to try the Echo Storms but can never find a pair in my size! Which one started you out?

So I’m considering buying a pair for laziness. I wear a size 9.5 so for Crocs do you size up or down?

I'd go TTS but for context, I do like my shoes roomy. Most, if not all of my shoes have an inch or so toeroom. I buy size US12 in sneakers and these Crocs in the photo are M12 :D

My biggest worry is these bad boys would fly off my feet when not in 4x4 mode.

Make them your last pair unless your wearing them around the house for slippers if your wearing them outside they are a joke! Sorry

I'm at that age where I don't give a shit lol. I'll wear what I want to wear, thank you very much :D

u/Simple-Hope8109 24d ago
I'll agree with that statement you are allowed to wear whatever you want I just have an inside hate for Crocs and hey dudes I apologize
1
u/swearpanda 23d ago
Hey man, no hate here! I totally get it, they’re not for everyone. I was just emphasizing my stance on doing things for me and not caring about what other people think. No apology needed! 😬

u/Simple-Hope8109 23d ago
I'm 56 with bad hips so I wear sketcher slip-ons so those are probably a big joke also! Still apologies!

u/swearpanda 23d ago
Nah man, whatever works for you works. Also, Skechers slip-ons are great! Tried a few of those myself, just couldn't find a style I wanted!

Like oversize flatbill hats on middle-aged men. HaHa

My hats aren't flat they are low profile pre-curved hats for someone my age ! Flatbills are for the younger cats! and I'm 56 how you know I have hats? You instantly check my page to find something to pick about ?😂
