Crocs: An Ugly Shoe Update!

CrocsI almost feel like I shouldn't open the big can of worms again, but blogging about crocs is somewhat unavoidable at the moment, thanks to the efforts of Manolo and friends. It was way back in April 2005 that Crocs first graced the pages of Shoewawa (ugly shoe of the week, of course), and then in December you lot voted them Ugly Shoe of the Year in the Shiny Style Awards (too right). I thought the whole episode was over, but then they appeared on the catwalk, and now they're being blogged all over the place again. There's even a Crocs Fans Blog! THIS MADNESS MUST STOP! I know they're comfy, I know they're great if you're on your feet all day, but it's all gone too far now. Now they're available in the UK.

Excuse me while I go and hand in my resignation...

    Lighten up people. My crocs share closet space with Jimmy Choo. When you are going to be on your feet all day...say at a photo shoot, or amusement park...these little beauties can save your life....er...your feet.



    As we found out in "Raise the Red Lantern" if your feet aren't happy neither are you. I think Aerosoles are equally ugly...sorry.

  • Dear Croc o' haters,

    I think you guys and the Croc wearing people are a little nuts. You however are vindictive while they are just wearing shoes they like. Who cares what other people wear? Its so Yuppie control-freak stupid to put up a website like this. What other people wear has never concerned me. I have a friend with very arthritic feet and she loves these shoes. I would not tell her they are ugly for the world. Why don't you go after the people who wear their underwear showing. Now that is real bad taste.



    Yours truly,
