    Suggest you try them for size before the animal is skinned.

    It's been posted before, a long time ago, but I'll post it again because I've gotta agree with this guy on this one. (the pics probably wont copy and paste but they're just pics of crocs anyway)

    Fashion tips for women from a guy who knows dick about fashion.

    Fashion tips for women from a guy
    who knows dick about fashion.


    Before I begin, I should warn you that I know dick about fashion. It's not just a clever title to get your attention, though it's admittedly clever (I'm honest enough to admit when something is brilliant, even when it's my own writing).
    You shouldn't read this article if you're a woman with low self-esteem. I don't need my inbox filled with emails from teary-eyed women reaffirming how astute my observations are by shrieking at me for ruining their lives.
    Women get away with murder in our society, especially when it comes to the visual pollution they call fashion. So I'm going to do what few people—few men—have ever done by criticizing you. Sure, you may be thinking "but Maddox, people criticize women's fashion all the time!" Yes, but not men, and definitely not badasses like me.... Until now.
    Crocs look like shit and they make your feet smell.



    When I see people wearing Crocs, I know immediately that we have nothing in common, and that we could never be friends or have any meaningful kind of relationship. They come in every color imaginable yet look bad with every other article of clothing ever created. The only thing that goes with Crocs is social ostracism.
    People who wear Crocs go on and on about how comfortable they are, and how it's supposedly odor resistant because it's made out of some kind of anti-bacterial foam. Great point, dipshits! You know what else it's resistant to? You getting laid. Then as if the shoes weren't disgusting enough, Crocs introduced a product called "Crocs butter" that's supposed to restore that illustrious injection-molded sheen to those gaping holes they call shoes:



    You know that feeling you get when you're full and slightly nauseous and you burp and you can taste the partly digested food in the back of your throat? There isn't a word in the english language to succinctly describe it, but I will hereby refer to it as: croc-butter.

    Pretty much agree with TFP.

    So far, it's always the same kind of person I've seen wearing Crocs -- and they ain't winners.

    350 Baht in Pattaya. I use them as work shoes in the garden. I wouldn't wear them otherwise. When your feet get wet they make a farting sound as you walk.

    My ten year old daughter HAD to have a pair. Got the brightest color purple/pink she could find. Wore them once. I've never seen them since. Guess that qualifies as a bad review.

    According to Paul Simon, the only compensation for ordinary shoes is to put diamonds on the soles.

    A$6 in BIG W Lesbain aisle
    Woolie's Newcastle NSW ideal for driving painting anywhere you need

    TO GET AGRIP

    Slip on and off at wat or pit stops and the holes allow feet to breathe.

    So fo old farts like me who gave up on fashion in favour of practicality they are the best thing since my Churchill brogues or manta Asolo boots which would be far too hot in the tropics.

    They can be worn inpol shower river and seem virtually indestrctibel as well as very cmfortable
    If you care what your feet look like more than how their aroma not for you and I dont see them cutting the mustard on the dance floor

    I love 'em. Great shoes for kicking about, easy to slip on and off, and pretty comfy too.
    Mind you, I have knock-off Crocs, got them at Tesco-Lotus in Minburi. Ninety-nine baht IIRC.

    I find blokes who wear black oxfords and socks with shorts much more ridiculous than Crocs.

    Not at all sure about that. I reckon a croc in brogues and shorts might just win it.

    Crocs with socks and fishmans pants are pretty bad.

    Crocs are fine if you like to wear them, but beware of the 99B quality: my son (4) finished off 2 pairs in 1 week..

    Sorry, will you say that again slowly please, I have a pair. Really handy for popping down the yard to the street sellers that pass. Slip on or off in a second and I don't give a flying shit if they get pinched so I leave them out all day and night.
    I think they were rip off but at just over a quid for a pair I don't much care.
    Be happy dudes. It's a lot more fun than crying.
