I have a bunch of foot issues, including arthritis, a Morton's neuroma and had also recently recovered from an oblique fracture of my fifth metatarsal. I'd also recently moved into a home with hardwood floors (my first hardwoods) and my feet were aching all the time. My chiropractor suggested I get some crocs and keep them as "indoor"  shoes that never touch the outside ground since I want to keep all that dirt, chemicals and other nastiness off the rug my grand babies crawl around on. I've had these several months now and still love them.
