  1. David Hockney just wore yellow Crocs to meet Charles III. And even you can own a pair by Balenciaga for only €895. Me? I love 'em AND hate 'em.

  2. I loathe them so much that I had NO idea that strap moved from the front to the back of the heel.

    Now I loathe them more, though Country Crocs made me smile.

  3. Did you see where King Charles told the artist David Hockney that he liked his "yellow galoshes"? Queen Elizabeth would have known they were crocs, I bet!

  4. My dentist used to wear crocs. I was always nervous about his falling when he was working on me, since my only acquaintance with them was people recounting the falls they'd taken on steps. I guess falling is not inevitable.

    I got a pair of crocs for the first time last year. Mine are tie-dye colored.

  8. I have been wearing Crocs since 2009 and after my first knee replacement surgery and now ... I can't wear the "regular" shoes I have in my closet!

  10. Never worn them - are they comfortable? Do you have a pair? Do they have good arch support?

  14. @ Lady M -- No, I don't have a pair and have never worn them, precisely because I need good orthotics in my shoes and always wear my custom ones. But I think Crocs do have a molded arch support in them? I know lots of people swear by how comfy Crocs are. My Rare One has a bright yellow pair but her teen nieces back in the day wouldn't be seen on the street with her if she was wearing them, LOL! They said she looked like Donald Duck in them!

  19. I have never worn these monstrosities.

  20. I've thought about getting a pair for around the house but still have not. Are they a good outdoor slipper? I think they are better than flip-flops.

    ReplyDelete
  21. I love mine to quickly slip on and go out into the garden.
    But I wouldn’t ever wear them out and about. I’ve seen people do that and I wonder
    Do they actually have a mirror that goes down that far to see how they look!
    At least they’re colourful I guess

  22. I never judge anyone who wears crocs. But I do find them to be a good conversation starter.

    ReplyDelete
  23. @ Bill Lisleman -- As far as I know, Crocs are great to wear outdoors too.

  24. My sister's go to footwear. I've never owned a pair.

    Coffee is on and stay safe

  26. I've never had a pair of crocs.

    ReplyDelete
  27. I never bought a pair of crocs when they were first available here and now all I can find is cheap copies which don't feel the same I've been told.
    Love the selection here :)

  28. If you visit Crystal Lake and see Croc-prints, RUN!

  30. These are hilarious, especially the last one!

  31. Never had any, but love the idea as proto summertime slippers.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Oh my thanks for making me familiar to other occupations of shoes

    ReplyDelete
  33. Haha! I never would have thought crocs would have the staying power that they have had over the years!

    ReplyDelete
  34. Oh Jason. You so silly. Love the sport mode too.

  35. Crocs are very handy for a quick trip to the back yard, taking out the trash, watering in the summer. I've had a pair for years and the damned things never wear out. I don't wear them away from home, except for camping trips.
    The memes are excellent, as always!

  36. I have never worn Crocs and never will

  37. My brother wears them. They look comfortable on his feet. Because he lives in Chicago, i don't know what shoes in winter time. He wears his crocs with style and panache.

    ReplyDelete
  38. I noticed one of my girls was wearing them recently and I was surprised....of course, she gushed over how comfy they are.
    Laughing at the Country Croc.

  39. I couldn't stop thinking about these crocs. So i asked my brother in Chicago, what about winter time? He laughed and said thick wool socks inside my crocs. He said when the thaw comes and everything is slush and mud, he sometimes wears galoshes. We were laughing so hard, i forgot to ask about snowshoes.

  40. @ Richard -- Your brother sounds like quite a character! Runs in the family, eh? Good stuff!

  41. I HATE crocs...but I don't have to wear them so to each their own.

  42. These are hilarious, Debra! I love the look on the dachshund's face. I've never had a pair of crocs, and I likely never will. My doctor has me wearing ridiculous light weight hiking sneakers all the time. I finally got rid of the rigid, broken-foot-shoe today, and I'm right back into my hiking sneakers. So glamorous ~ lol! I hope that you are having a fun weekend with your Rare One. Maybe you should get her a new pair of yellow crocs for Christmas!

  43. Both my LGBTQ+ kids have Crocs. I think my Darling Eldest is developing a John Waters style love of kitschy and slightly disturbing things,
