My husband loves these so much that this is the second pair he's had me order. The first pair, while still in a wearable state, have started to wear out on the soles, so he requested a second pair before his first pair bit the dust entirely (perhaps in fear of this style being discontinued?) Actually, the first pair still looks pretty good, considering the mileage he puts on them.
While the silhouette of these is basically the same as original Crocs, the material and color make them much more acceptable as "dress-casual" shoes, certainly vs sneakers.
The 2 or so times a year he actually wears a suit, the hubs will wear "real" dress shoes, but these will probably be in the car in case of emergency.
