DO NOT WEAR THESE SHOES IN PUBLIC.
I repeat...DO NOT WEAR THESE SHOES IN PUBLIC.These are great shoes. Sure. Who am I to say they're not great shoes? But please only wear them when you're gardening. That means mowing the lawn, pulling weeds, planting trees etc etc.
Do NOT wear them to the supermarket.
Do NOT wear them with a dress.
Do NOT wear them out for dinner.
I don't care how comfortable they are or how you're just running out for a quick something...Just don't wear them any time... unless you are gardening.
**EDIT**
Lifeguards may also wear them... but ONLY when working.
Thank you
The Management.

heh :)
AMEN!!!
oh my... SO glad i was not drinking anything when i read this. thank you ! i've needed to laugh like that for a while !!
double amen
I guess they've invaded BC too, eh? Anything like this that becomes super trendy makes me so anti-whatever it is, I won't buy it. Even if these were like clouds on my feet and brought me to complete ecstasy I wouldn't be caught dead in them just because everyone else is wearing them. Sheep, baaaaaaa!
lifeguards! lifeguards can wear them

Hey Sarah,
This is not at all related to your Crocs post. But I needed to write and say...Wooo hooo...you will be doing cooking demonstrations at the Toronto Vegetarian Food Fair! I just got the email today describing the cooking demonstrations and I saw your name three times. I am very excited for that weekend. I hope you are looking forward to it too. I will rendezvous with you in Toronto!

They make a person look like a gardening nurse who forgot to change her germy shoes before going on with her real life!
I wholeheartedly agree with you. So do my friends and family. Dooce.com also agrees with you, albeit more vehemently. Check it out! Her war with her husband's Crocs will become the stuff of legends.
seriously, these shoes are EVERYWHERE. over it!
i was going to get a pink pair. my brother told me to think about it as in, what would you wear it with? a straight man said this. you know it's a bad idea when even a straight man knows it's a bad idea. so i won't do it. your posting has galvanized my decision.
Heidi has the very pair you posted!
As long as Heidi only wears them while gardening or lifesaving... we're fine.
They might be good at the beach, poolside, or in questionable public showers (like at the gym). But they are not to be worn outside.
just because they are trendy, doesn't mean they are bad. Comfort is king!
They look so good on Jack Nicholson tho. In blue, no less!
Yep - totally agree. Years ago, I would see them at gardening shops. Now they're at Nordstrom. If you don't want to see people wearing these in public, don't visit Portland until the fad has passed - hopefully very soon...
I think that they rock. I have had so many problems with my feet with swetting and smelling. My wife says that I have a bad case of TRENCH FOOT, and for the first time in 10 years they are what I would like to say normal. Yes they are realy bad looking but thye have made my life better....jeff
JEFF!
You have a pardon.
You are allowed to wear those shoes, but only if you never tell me the story of your feet EVER AGAIN!! :)
