Although it's not yet winter, my 5-year-old has worn these to school a few times on wet days. I appreciate that the Velcro-type closure makes them easy to put on and take off, so after he gets to school he can easily switch to sneakers. As far as I can tell they are comfortable as well (lined).

Son also thinks the "color change" features are neat. Basically the white stripe around the bottom and the little button with the Crocodile change to a darker blue color in the cold.

As a final note, I am vegetarian and prefer not to buy animal products, so I like Crocs because most of them are non-leather, yet sturdy.

If these were about $10 cheaper I would have given them 5 stars.
