One Man Banned Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 have to admit I am tempted at getting a pair of crocs just for pottering around the house or garden but then I think Do I REALLY need another set of footwear to add to the 30+ pairs I already own! but I've also just got my work bonus and it's burning a hole in my bank account.......... and I have packed up the ciggies for 6 weeks tomorrow so need a treat..........

SarahJo Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 Go for a pair of crocs Andrew ...... they are great for just putting on to go out into the garden, or for pottering around the house. And lets face it the weather is getting warmer ... so more "popping" outside to the garden ... and they are the perfect kind of "popping" out shoe . Sorry .. sales pitch over ... no I don't work for them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelsea Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 We went to a campsite the weekend and they sold crocs in the site shop ! Hubby bought a pair for £27 which was great value and he loves them, very comfy. Go for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One Man Banned Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 Ok I'm convinced Joe said "no!" but he let me get some as long as I ordered him a pair Just got to find some fab colour (tempted by silver for me ) and Joe has chosen chocolate ones. Now - where to get them from......ideas please folks A xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 I've practically lived in mine since I got them. Also got little ones for the boys because they WILL insist on running off in the pool changing rooms - and they definitely don't slip Even OH has got a pair now. The only one who hasn't yet is the 15 year old because they are not cool. He just wears his Dads instead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin B Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 If you wear the crocs in the water they float to the surface and you go under! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 here's another question... i have heard tell that u can wash crocs in the washing machine.... mine are a bit grubby what temperature is recommended? (I once put some trainers in the washer - too hot - melted all the glue!) Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 I bunged my black crocs in the washing machine yesterday, Phil. They were washed at 30 degrees with the dark laundry and they came out looking absolutely brand new! I was amazed how good they looked - until I went out to feed the chickens. They need washing again now . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laura & CTB Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 I wash my Crocs on 30 degrees too, but usually on their own! Me too - and on a chilly day 10 mins in the tumble drier - very cosy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carolinep Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 I wash my Crocs on 30 degrees too, but usually on their own! Andrew - try www.jellyegg.com Andrew, I agree with Ginette, www.jellyegg.com are brilliant. My super duper red caymens arrived Saturday (only ordered them a few days before) They provide a splendid service. Crocs are ideal slippy on when when you want shoes, sooooooo comfy too. You just know that you really do need another pair of shoes You've just got to decide what colour to have Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One Man Banned Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 really really like the Army green and orange strapped Off Road type ones...... and Joe wants ordinary ones A xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carolinep Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 I can't believe how comfy they are... You lot should be on commission . It would be interesting to know how many people have bought Crocs because of the recommendations on here? I certainly wouldn't have got mine.
