Egluntyne Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 "Mary Jane's" Question Can you remove the instep strap without damaging the shoe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickpea Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 Woo hoo! My purple caymens came today from Jellyegg! I cannot get over how comfy they are, I had no idea!!! (they even came with a little free easter egg jibbet thingie!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Egluntyne Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 Just put my Mary Janes in the washing machine. Am now slobbing around in my Birkenstocks. I previously thought they were the most comfy shoes in the world. I can now declare that Crocs are the most comfy shoes in the universe. I bought them 3 days ago and they have never been off my feet ( except for when I was in bed or in the shower of course!) They are fab. I went for black as I was a bit of a cowardy custard re colour. Will go for something totally outrageous next time.....and there will be a next time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura & CTB Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 I bought them 3 days ago and they have never been off my feet ( except for when I was in bed or in the shower of course!) but Egluntine - you could have worn them in the shower as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 chookiehubbie has packed both my pairs of crocs, and I can;t find the right box. I'm slumming it in a pair of sparkly pink flip-flops at the moment, and my poor feet just aint happy about it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 I don't wear anything else on my feet these days - although I'm just wondering whether to wear my purple ones to Church tomorrow I've worn the black ones, with black trousers but tomorrow, I want to wear a skirt - and purple Crocs. Oh well - it will give everyone something to talk about I suppose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelsea Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 ok I have given in and am buying myself some crocs. Q - about mary Janes - I have broad foot with highish instep (like cornish pasty feet ) and im normally a size 6 in shoes - do you think I should go up to a 7 ?? Im going to buy a pair of caymans (hubby has a pair) but I think the mary janes will be nice to walk the dog in - as they will stay on my feet easier. Im another Birkie fan - been buying Birkenstocks for years and years and I never thought I'd find shoes as comfy as birkes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chelsea Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 Im sure some of my birkies are 6-7 years old and I still wear them. I have a pair by the back door I wear all year round - in and out of the garden. Good shoes. Crocs have opened my feet's eyes to wonderous comfort !! Go on Paola - if you order some - so will I !!!

Snowy Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 Go for it you two! I wondered if the caymans would stay on my feet, but they do, far better than any other clogs or flip flops, even without the heel strap in place. I was worried about driving in them, but they are fine. What colours are you going for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelsea Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 I LOVE the cotton candy caymans (I love Pink) and I like the lavendar ones too. Going to go for black mary janes cos I might get away with them for work - no one will notice them with suit trousers under a desk will they??!!

Egluntyne Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 I have a pair of black Mary Janes and a pair of black Caymans. I found that I had to stretch the straps of the Caymans as my toes caught on the front when they were in place. The next size up absolutely swamped my feet. I just pulled at the straps without exerting any stress on the studs and they are absolutely fine. The Mary Janes are a bit daintier and I'm sure would be fine under trousers at work Chelsea....Also If you have a high instep, you could stretch the strap a bit. Him Indoors can't abide them. Everyone at his place of work wears them. I'd never get him in a pair in a zillion years. Have ordered some Purple Caymans. Cant wait for his comments.

jellyb100 Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 I've just been looking at the jellyegg website and ordered some primas - i'm a size 9 so often struggle to get woman's shoes but I can have as many crocs as I can afford! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickpea Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 Since my crocs came, about two weeks ago, my mum and dad have both gone out and bought some! They couldn't believe how comfy they were till they tried some! I think my aunt and grandpa are getting some now too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
