As far as Crocs go, these aren't ugly.  They're actually kind of cute.  But the real allure is how COMFORTABLE these shoes are!  I figured Crocs had to be comfy since their looks can't account for their popularity, but these are easily the most comfortable shoes I have.

It feels like they are made out of some kind of squishy plastic.  The soles are nice and thick - you can even walk over rocks and it feels nice.

These shoes are sized a little big.  For regular shoes, I wear 9 - 9 1/2, so I bought a size 9.  They are plenty roomy.  In fact, I think I might buy another pair in a size 8.
