I never thought much of Crocs when they were "the thing," but somehow ended up with a pair from the resale bin. They were great, but wearing out after several years. I was so glad to find these on Amazon. I had forgotten how comfortable they were when new, and now I wish I could find other styles, like the ones with winter inserts. These are greats for yard work, and also for quick dog-walks. A note on size: I wear an 8.5 W, and I find the 9 to be very comfortable. Highly recommended.
