Never say Never

yea yea yea........ I've heard it all my life



"Never say Never" because it usually comes back to bite you in the a&$.

Well, it has. These little shoes here are my "Never's".


Crocs.



I swore that my child would never wear them; I swore that I would never purchase them.

So that's no longer the truth.

My son is the proud owner of not one but two pairs of Crocs. The first pair was given to him; the second pair I purchased.

Now you're probably asking, "What's your problem with Crocs????"

My answer: "They are U G L Y!".......... but I have to say that they are easy to put on, easy to clean and generally indestructible. So there you have it....my child is a "Croc" kid.

But it will be a cold day in (you fill in the blank) before we are a family of Croc wearers (if that's a word or not who knows). If my life depended on it, I might and I repeat might wear them but that would be a last resort. Honestly, even then I doubt I would wear them. I would die happy and somewhat stylish. [grin]

Everyone is entitled to his/her opinion, and this is mine. If you wear Crocs, your child/children, and spouse, no offense intended but I would probably talk about you if I saw you as a family of Cros wearers in the street..... especially if you as an adult were wearing NEON orange Crocs. LOL

And please let me say that these shoes are not only ugly but expensive. Seriously.....$30. Oh My Word!!!

I can see wear they are good for kids, but you wouldn't catch me dead wearing a pair myself.

You should have bought them at the croc outlet at discover mills.....the kids are $10

I said the exact same thing about my daughter....NEVER, NEVER, NEVER. But, albeit - my almost 2 year old has a pair. A purple pair - and, she wears them - often. *sigh* And, the best part about it....in the morning, as we are trying to get out the door as I am late for work...AGAIN - if I tell her to put her shoes on - she does, and it is her Croc - but, at least I didn't have to stop searching for my car keys to help her do it.

Elijah wants a pair. I've held off, but might break soon. Time will tell. Yes, the outlet malls are great for crocs too! Cheap!

I would never wear a pair of them. I have a hate for them. I can see why kids would really like them though.

I guess never say never is for sure applicable here.
