Hi my name is Dani and I’m a Croc wearer…
My addiction started after a much needed bunion surgery. I couldn’t resist the roomy cushy fit of these magnificent (dare I say shoes?). Crocs offered me the support I needed without the pain of constraint, and the colors and styles….wowsers… I was like a kid in a candy store. Yipppee. Unlike most addictions this is not one I wish to be rid of… that said… there is a decided downside to Crocs, and it’s called ridicule! Seriously people laugh and make not subtle derogatory comments regarding Crocs all the time! Here is just one example…. yeah it’s a pretty common one too. I must confess that wearing Crocs has NOT stifled my sex life in the least!
Being the function over fashion girl that I am I have managed to take it all in stride, but there are occasions when I (gasp!!!) worry about the appropriateness of Crocs. Okay not that often but sometimes. Luckily…. the makers of Crocs being the marketing geniuses that they are have made Crocs that don’t look like Crocs for just such occasions. Croc addicts rejoice… now we can wear Crocs that look just like other shoes without giving up comfort for acceptance.
If you don’t believe me just follow this link and have a look see for yourself.

and on days like today…Halloween…. we can just go balls out and totally ROCK!!!! our Crocs and socks!
Well, I’m certainly not one to talk since I’ve posted photos of my own bunion-free footwear. I’ve never owned Crocs, but I have to admit, they look comfy. Life is too short to pinch our feet into poorly designed shoes or heels that shorten our calf muscles. At least for me it is. 🙂

I have to say I have never tried a pair on, I was going to one day when my daughter stopped me and forbid me to be seen in public in them. That was when they first came out I may have to try on some, she has moved away from home. LOL

Dani, I lucked up on this post and followed the link. I found a pair of bronze sandals I really like and I think I’m going to order them. I’ll let you know the results. If it’s a success, instead of saying the shoes are Crocs, or Sloanes, I’ll call them my Danis. 🙂
