I got them from the market in Ashton under Lyne but I've seen them in the last few days on various markets around Manchester, I'm sure they'll be coming to a market near to just about everyone very soon!

By the end of the summer everyone will have a pair!.I wish I could find some mens as my hubby has been suffering with terrible gout since January and I think he would find them very helpfull.

Think I'll pass on them. Haven't seen anything so ugly (my opinion only). Where and with what type of clothing would you wear them?

I wore mine at my caravan with jeans all weekend as they are so comfee.I will get a white pair to wear during the day on holiday.My friend,a nurse has just bought some for work as she said all the younger nurses are wearing them.(she works in theatre not on the wards!)

I wear mine to work as well, with trousers or a long skirt. I wear the black Mary Jane style to work though, not the Caymans.

Blondepuff have you ordered the wedge Crocs yet? Just seen the "Sassari" on the Crocs site and I want them - NOW -

I will wear mine throughout my holiday both day and evening. I don't have any sort of pretty frocks or anything, more mix and match skirts and tops and stuff. When it comes to holidays it seems most people wear flip flop type things all the time. I know some years back I stopped taking any heels because I just looked out of place, and that was in South of France.

Crocs are a life saver for me! :D

I bought a pair of the gold mary jane's before going on holiday to cyprus in april, they were very comfy but i only wore them a few times, my husband just laughed when i put them on and said i looked like a cyberman from dr who :( I am going to buy them for my 7yr old daughter, trying to get a pair of the fake ones for her tho, i also hear you can now get kids crocs that light up at the back :o

Hotfooted it over to huge Asda at Milton Keynes after reading about Pat's red and pink moc crocs. Not a sign of a croc anywhere and despite a lengthy description the assistant I asked didn't know what I was on about :oops: :lol:

I'm not a big fan of crocs. We first seen them last year on a whole family - mum, dad, 1 boy and 3 girls - all in various colours and this was before they became popular :). They wore them for the whole duration of their holiday from flight in to flight home. I think only the mum had a change of shoe in two weeks !

I noticed yesterday that Brantano are doing the originals now. They had quite a selection of colours but only in small sizes or large sizes. Seems they are becoming quite popular and those not wearing them on holidays this year will be quite out of place.

Give me my flip flops any day.
:)

im not sure about them either, the first time i saw them i thought they were horrendous but after seeing so many about they arent as bad as i first thought but cant see me getting any although they might be handy for paddling in a stoney sea lol, i much prefer my flip flops too, maybe 1 day they might grow on me who knows lol

Anice,
I have 2 Asdas near me and while one of them ( the smaller) had them in both pink and red, the other (24 hr) didn't have any......this was in Glasgow.

Meant to say they are made in China and it says "JuJu" on the sole, so don't know if that's what they're calling them?

Plenty of Crocs in Benidorm.
The imitation ones are 7.99 euros.
The genuine Crocs are 39 euros, choose where you buy them from.
Suprisingly, I've not seen too many people walking around in them in Benidorm...only 2 people whilst I've been here.

I tried a pair on and I'm still undecided, I have until tomorrow to make my mind up. I can see them coming in very handy for the Costa del Sol in June...just need to convince the OH...he said I looked stupid in them. :roll: :cry:

Sanjiiiiiiiiiii

Can't wait to see his face when he comes home!!! :lol:
