Yes, its true. I've gone over to the dark side. I'm not usually one to follow trends but I did finally go for this one, albeit a bit late. That's right, I now own a pair of Crocs. Let me explain, though. This is what I was wearing before
Because its been so warm here, I was wearing those sandals almost whenever I left the house. I wore them with capris, and lately I've been wearing them with jeans because its too hot for socks and my tennis shoes are for running only. I wore them to work, I wore them out to eat (casual place), I wore them when walking to get the mail, you get the idea. I've had them for about 10 years. No joke. They were my shower shoes when I was a freshman in college. Needless to say they were long past needing to be replaced. I've been eyeing up Crocs for a while, but just couldn't get past the ugly and unprofessional look, no matter how comfortable. Not to mention I couldn't justify paying $30 for a pair and I didn't want an off brand. But today Chris and I walked into a shoe store that was going out of business and everything was 50% off. I started hunting for a pair of everyday sandals, and this is what I finally settled on
They're still comfy like Crocs, but they are actually cute with a pair of jeans. They're chocolate brown, so should go with almost everything and yet not show dirt or dust too much. The fit is...interesting, but I'm getting used to it. And as Chris put it, NOTHING could be worse than what I was wearing. So I've finally jumped on the Crocs bandwagon, and am hoping these shoes will still look good in a few years.

I bought a pair of crocs just to wear around the house. Too hot for slippers, flip flops were weird, and the floor is too hard for barefeet.
I like them, although they are a half a size too big.
