This is my second pair, first pair still hanging in, just wanted new color.  Very comfortable shoe for on your feet all day jobs.  I have read a lot of reviews slamming the shoe because not skid resistant, and I think those people ordered the wrong shoe.  There is a huge difference in regular crocs and the Mario Batali Bistro models.  The bistro models have solid tops, no holes on sides, and the "cross lock" non skid bottom.  These work great in a slippery kitchen, I have never had a problem.  Great shoes, just make sure your are ordering the right model if using in a kitchen.
