    They never fell out of style amongst people who work on their feet all day. I’m guessing you don’t need them while riding a desk, try walking 10mi a day through a warehouse and see how your loafers do.

      People who work on their feet all day don’t use crocs. You’d use TreadSafes that have actual support and fit, or you’d use an actual work shoe like Keen. Crocs absolutely will not hold up in a warehouse and will provide zero support or protection for your feet.

        Lol ok.

        -A guy who walks 10mi a day through a warehouse in crocs, while seeing all my coworkers also wearing crocs, who used to have a shitton of foot pain but hasn’t since switching to the crocs.

        Sorry but I think I’ll take my own word over yours on this one.

          And I walk 12-14 miles a day in Keens. My last assistant refused to wear anything but Crocs. Guess who was out every other week with foot problems? Not me.

            Was your coworker an old man with gout? Foot problems from an unrelated soccer injury? Just lying to you and you’re buying it?

            10mi/day for about 2 years on the same crocs, I haven’t even had to buy a new pair yet, no foot pain since the switch. Again, I’m forced to trust my feet over your anecdote.
