Crocs
I HATE them and my co worker is wearing them to work. Its business casual for the dress code. REALLY? Ugh!

Re: Crocs
'Crocs' and 'business' should not appear in the same sentence. They are not acceptable office attire.

Wouldn't it be nice to live together in the kind of world where we belong?
Besides these:

What's even funnier is that I'm a die-hard Texas Longhorns football fan and the girls at work said I should totally wear those under my wedding dress to freak FI out....he would die laughing.
I mean could you imagine seeing someone where those in publc? ohhhh nooooo!
I wish I was making that up.
It's right up there with wearing pajamas to the bank/grocery store, etc? I was so annoyed one by being subjected to a woman in tattered PJ's and NO bra in a bank once that I said to FI (loudly) "what is wrong with people, does it REALLY take that much more effort to put on real clothes."
I judge people who are too lazy to put on real clothes when out in public (unless in the emergency room).
When you wear crocs out in public because they're the only comfortable shoe after a foot injury, and then everyone judges you.

And Achi- I also really judge people that cant seem to get dressed before they leave the house. Have some respect.
I'm guilty of wearing crocs to work. When I worked at B&N, they were the only shoes I could wear for 8+ hours while being on my feet running from the front of the store to the back and all around. I couldn't afford the fancy mcfancy orthopedic shoes. We weren't allowed to wear tennis shoes and any other shoe aggrivated my plantar fascitis. I personally don't think they're any uglier than some of the fancy shoes I see out there. But I also shop at Walmart, so what do I know.
Anna- I'd never have laughed at your Crocs.
I think they are kind of cute on little kids.
On adults in public? Hell no. At work? Uh, absolutly not.
[QUOTE]Has anyone seen those Croc-like shoes that have individual toes so they look like feet? I saw that at the mall the other day, they're weird looking.

Are they athletic shoes? If yes, then yeah I've seen them.

I didn't realize they were for sports too. Wonder if you have to buy special socks, seems like they'd get all funky inside.

Thank you.
Sometimes comfort really does need to come before fashion.

Edited for clarity.
[QUOTE]I saw a guy at the DMV wearing those Vibram Five Finger things. It was weird. I see a lot of MDs and RNs wearing Crocs at work. I totally get the comfort thing - you can be on your feet for 12 hours or more. BUT I would never wear them to work. At least not the ones with the holes in them - come on. You can get any kind of body fluid in there, easily. Do they make non-holey ones? I'm off to research.

I wonder if my Coach sneakers will get the same gasp response she got that day?
Besides for injuries I think there are plenty of alternatives, however I am guilty of wearing them pool side.

<div>Hahaha thanks, I was already looking at some, too!</div><div>
</div><div>I really try not to, but I kind of side-eye other medical staff wearing the ones with the holes. That's just bad infection control right there.</div>
Side note-Don't vist MN in the winter, it sucks.
