I purchased these crocs for work, I have another pair that work fine. When I put these on they were very spongy, felt different and after wearing them for a whole shift I noticed my feet were very sore which never happens with my other style. They are also odd looking and while I knew they were "pearlized", I think I would not choose this color again. I'll use them around the house for slippers and they'll be okay but I can't recommend them.
