While certainly cuter than those abhorrent gardening clogs that people insist on wearing, I simply cannot get behind rubber shoes.

While I am not for rubber shoes, isn't anyone considering that these are great alternatives to galoshes or wellies for rainy day walks to work or being out and about in particularly inclement weather? I think they are cute rain shoes- but certainly not cut out to replace the other fabulous options for real shoes...

i certainly wouldn't consider these for everyday wear, but i also think they're a great alternative to wellies in rainy weather. especially for those days that start off sunny and end up rainy, these are easy to carry in a bag and change into.

The rubber shoe may have the advantage when it comes to durability, water-resistance, and--yes--bounce; however: Did we learn nothing from the Jelly craze days? Does no one wish to remember--or admit--that beneath the addictive cute-appeal of neon-colored, rubber slip-ons lurked a toxic blight of soggy, sweaty feet that smelled like a combination of fermented polyester and neglected pool toys? But apparently Tretorn, who long, long ago made a tennis shoe that was sublimely comfortable for the first three days of wear, is all about rubber. And for good reason: they also make tennis balls! Nevertheless: Where the rubber meets the feet, there must be air--or beware.

I'd wear them... for a limited time only. They may not be the most fashionable shoes on their own, but they do serve a great rainy day purpose. I am a San Francisco girl who walks absolutely everywhere (even in the rain) in 3 inch heels and long trousers. In the rain you have two options: ruin your pricey heels or stuff your nice trousers into wellies because they are too long to wear with heel-less rain shoes. These are basically heeled rain shoes... perfect for under long trousers on the way to work. Upon arrival I would immediate switch back to my fashionable 3 inch heels.

Im not being funny, but these seriously should of been ugly shoe of the week! The pink is REVOLTING.. rain or no rain.. I would pick wellies over these anyday! Esp with the wide selection of colourful wellies u can get these days... yes they crease ur trousers at the bottom, but these shoes just look weird!
