Crocs dont make your feet smell. Bad hygiene makes your feet smell
once had a coworker complaining about how the gloves at work make her hands smell gross. she wouldn’t wash her hands or change her gloves enough. your nasty hands make your hands smell gross.
If the gloves are nitrile they sometimes can have a nasty sulfur odor that doesn’t wash off easily.
if
They make feet smell? Huh? They’re comfortable and air-y. No smelly feet.
yeah came to piont this out. I won’t argue the ugly but feet wrapped in socks and normal shoes all day are rank while crocs feet are as good as feet ever are. Say like just after waking up.
That’s where you’re wrong my friend! My feet get moist with our without socks and I had a pair that I used sockless for a while and they got naaaasty after a few days use. Now, I will say that they wash out nice and easy but if you’re going sockless with juicy feet for any amount of time it makes a very special kind marinade. 3/10 do not recommend.
I use them every day and I don’t have that problem, sorry~
Oh no need to be sorry, I was just sharing my awful life experience lolol.
Could be a personal issue? Not everyone has sweaty feet. Personally I am the same way as you, swamp foot central… but I wear socks with my crocs.
Fuck social norms 😎
It’s only a personal issue until someone else catches a whiff 😉
But yeah, as someone who isn’t a fan of socks having sweaty feet is a major annoyance.
That sounds like a “them” problem.

Because they are super fuckin comfortable
Comfy and I couldn’t give a shit what you think. You should smell less I don’t have the issue.
They’re actually so comfy. I used to be in the croc haters gang until I got over myself and tried them. They’re durable, comfy, cool out in the desert heat, easy to clean, and can be made to stay on my feet securely when needed. People need to get tf over what other people are wearing. Everyone has to be less comfortable because of these dweebs policing what’s “proper” to wear and it’s actually bs. Some rich stuck up aholes decided what clothing is acceptable/professional and we all just got stuck with it forever.
Fellow croc hater convert here. I’m a disabled veteran with bad feet and spend most of time indoors wearing slippers. Got tired of buying a new pair ever year from excessive wear. Finally tried some crocs and my feet have never been happier, not to mention I’m still on my first pair nearly 4 years later. I will never not own at least one pair going forward.
They are excellent, versatile footwear. Comfortable. Great for stepping out back to grill, to get the mail, heading to a friends pool party, fishing, the beach or anything wet, or running out for the day.
Top tier shoes.
Unfortunately the only thing they can’t do is preserve your dignity. That what the holes are for, so your self-respect can flow out unimpeded
I was this way once. I was gifted a pair and had to wear them for a few days so I didn’t look like a monster in front of my family.
Crocs are so comfortable you don’t rely on your dignity to make it through the day. My smile starts at my feet.
Crocs are absolutely not comfortable.
I got flat feet so that’s gonna contribute some but even flip flops aren’t that bad.
Mine starts with a pair of Mephisto shoes. 10x the price, 10x the comfort, 20x the durability
I’ll look into those, always trying to upgrade my sole.
Just recently I got knock-off Crocs for gardening, they’ve been great, idk what you’re talking about 😀

Explain the ones that are lined with fleece on the inside.
Every day we stray further from God’s light.
The offer ZERO ankle support and often don’t fit snuggly enough to support anything really. Unless you wear flip flops, don’t wear these. Easy way to end up with constant foot, ankle, and knee problems.
Human ankles aren’t made from glass.
Regular shoes are going to give you bunions in the long run.
There’s a reason hiking and activity shoes have ankle support. Ankles aren’t glass, but you don’t want to roll them in uneven surfaces
Who the hell would want to wear crocs for hiking?
The reason hiking shoes have ankle support is because most people already have glass ankles. If you let your ankles strengthen without them then rolling your ankles doesn’t equal injury. I went on a long hike just last weekend and rolled my ankles pretty hard on two occations without any pain or injury.
Also lots of “activity” shoes don’t have ankle support. See: most basketball shoes, trail/ultra running shoes, football cleats. All shoes that are pretty optimized for performance in sports that have high ankle impact, most are low top.
I’d still rather wear slippers lol, you can actually get some decent pairs that are comfy and look less ridiculous than Crocs
Exactly, people are wearing clogs in place of sandals insisting that the ancients were wrong.
The ancients made clogs out of wood, my dude.
The ancients were wrong about a LOT of things.
This is how you get cursed.
https://www.runnersworld.com/uk/news/a36406163/5000m-wearing-crocs/ I am not saying this is a good idea. Just thought it was apropos.
They never went away
op does not work in a hospital.
I wager 70% of all crocs worn are hospital employees.
Doubt.
Most popular footwear in Hosiptals are birkenstocks.
Crocks are popular with young kids and people in the south of the US.
This seems like you googled that and took the sponsored link as gospel. Every article I’ve seen mentions Crocs and tons of other brands over birks. I’m not even an advocate of Crocs, was just curious as I didn’t believe the birks comment and have looked in to shoes a ton over the years. Birks and toe drop are a real thing and a pain
Speaking as a hospital worker, in a hospital, wearing crocs. Doing a fast count in my department I see 12 pairs of crocs, among about 20-ish people.
What the fuck is a birkestock.
This is what happens when you have a bias and then just find a search result to match it instead of caring about actual facts
I knew a lot of chefs that liked them
As in the people working with knives and hot water?
They have a closed toe design, but yeah. Clogs of all kinds are super common in commercial kitchens.
Crocs are old news. We’re all about those big red boots now!
They’re comfy, cheap, non-absorbent and if you wash them and your feet they’re fine
Cheap?
Knock off brands are at least
I love my crocs. Easy to wear, my feet stay cool, and the texture makes me feel like my foot is getting massaged.
Up next is lululemon pants.
They are comfortable god-damn it
If you put them in all terrain mode, they make great river shoes. You can’t stub your toes in them like those thin slip on ones and they are bulky enough that your feet don’t get wedge between rocks.
And since they’re soft, they’re quite grippy, even when on smooth and wet surfaces.
