Redwing Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 I have been wearing my slippers to run out to the Eglu when necessary however now the ground is muddier I would like some nice washable shoes to slip on quickly. After seeing Christian's washable super comfy Crocs it would seem that they are the answer (he doesn't just do chicken courses you know, he sells you the lifestyle ) For a pair of lightweight shoes they are surprisingly expensive and as I know they may be just one or two ( ) fans on here I would like to know if you need to buy them a size too big before I place my order as I have heard that they are a snug fit. If anyone could help I would appreciate it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 You do. I didn't with my first pair as they felt gargantuan when I tried them on in the shop, despite being advised properly by the assistant, and the catch on my toes when the strap is at the back. My other pairs are a size bigger and are fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 I buy the size I usually wear - is there anywhere you could try any on? Different countries make them to a slightly different size as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted November 26, 2008 Author Share Posted November 26, 2008 I didn't think it would take too long for someone to reply, thanks you two! I guess I will have to place the order and do a return if they are wrong, the website seems to be a good one. I don't really do clothes/shoe shopping trips if I can avoid it! (I buy the same thing in all the colours and wait for it all to wear out!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 I buy my usual size, as do all my family, & they fit fine. We don't however wear the back strap,but slip them on & off rather like clogs. Crocs are the best thing in the world (after Eglus ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubereglu Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 I mostly buy my usual size, but the last couple of pairs in my normal size I have found to be too small, so I'd go a size up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 I got my first crocs from Jellyegg.com and was chatting to the woman on the phone because I take a size 2.5 and wasn'r sure what size to get. She very kindly sent me both a size 2 and a size 3 with a freepost sticker so that I could send back whichever pair didn't fit. I got the size 3 as they need to have 1cm gap at the back when your toes are at the front. I have just got a pair of children's Axle, which are enclosed shoes by Crocs and they really need to be that size bigger. You will love your crocs Hon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
