I love my Gretels! It is one of my favorite Crocs (and I probably have over 25 pairs). I love putting them on first thing in the morning to take my puppy out. They are easy to slip on and keep my feet warm & dry. I did have to buy one size up like everyone suggested, but they still fit well with socks. I have 3 pairs of Gretels (black, gold and yellow). The gold has a wonderful sheen to it. I am planning to buy brown next.
