I saw these at a mall in Oregon when I was out looking for a pair of shoes for my wedding, I'm a laid-back sort of person and I waited to the last minute. I couldn't find anything that I liked the look of, I wanted to wear the shoe more than once and I wanted it to be somewhat comfortable and inexpensive. I saw these shoes in red and bought them. I would recommend these shoes to anyone, I am living in Nigeria and they provide a air flow and are shoes that I can dress up with or dress down. No one can believe they're crocs, and I get loads of compliments. Other people have started buying them online too because they like mine so much. They were great for my wedding and I wear them almost everyday too.
