..lay a little egg for me Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Just had my new crocs winter boots arrive. Was bemused by the warning tag attached to them: "to avoid personal injury when riding escalators and moving walkways, stand in the middle of the step facing forward...etc etc" I'd not noticed this on previous crocs...do they all have it? And, um why? is there some group of escalator-riding crocs wearers who need to be protected from their own foolishness?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElvisFan Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 I have seen this warning before, its because of the rubbery texture of the croc material if its too close to the edge of the esculator step it can rub and get sucked down and your foot with it - OUCH !

Looney Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 A friend of mine went down a helter skelter wearing crocs. A croc got stuck on the edge of the slide and his foot stayed still whilst the rest of him carried on....resulting in a severely sprained ankle and a trip in an ambulance!

TAJ Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 I had a waterproof camera case that warned it should not be used as a floatation device! I think even the weight of a mouse would be too heavy to float with it. No doubt someone has sued at some point of this! Tracy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
