Knowing Your Crocs When You Shop Online for Shoes


Crocs footwear are increasingly becoming more popular everywhere you go. When I say "Crocs shoes," I don't mean shoes made of crocodile skin, but rather a new footwear trend that is sweeping the globe.

Crocs shoes originally came from Canada. Now, the Crocs Company is based in Boulder, Colorado. Crocs are made from a patented closed-cell resin, which makes them comfortable and pliable. They are especially great for people who are on their feet all day, like food service people, medical personnel and others.

I've heard from doctors and nurses that after wearing Crocs all day, not only do their feet feel great, but any back problems they normally suffered from were gone. This doesn’t mean that wearing a pair of Crocs can solve all your medical problems, but you will definitely feel better.

One of the benefits of this patented closed-cell resin footwear is the shoes do not absorb odor. It's amazing how even after wearing the shoes all day, they will not stink. Another awesome feature is the shoes are so lightweight they actually float on water, making Crocs ideal for people on boats. It’s not just because of the floating factor, but because they also have a good grip on the deck.

Some people have worn Crocs shoes for mundane chores such as gardening. Crocs are also great for tasks like this. They are very easy to clean; just hose them off and let them dry.

Crocs come in a variety of models and colors you can choose from when you shop online for shoes. The most common Crocs have ventilation holes throughout the top of the shoe, and others only have ventilation holes around the sides leaving the top solid for protection from spilled liquids. Older models were fully enclosed, but I think it may have been too hot for normal and prolonged wear.

The large variety of fashionable colors makes Crocs an excellent choice to go with any outfit. Having even a small collection of Crocs makes it easier to mix and match, and make the right fashion choice.

What about the size? Crocs generally run a little bit large. Some models, like the Beach model, come in size groups like small, medium and large. Others, like the Cayman model, come in full sizes reaching 8, 9 and 10. Since the sizes are unisex, you need to look at a chart to determine whether you are looking at men's or women's sizes. If you normally wear a size 8 and the chart shows a shoe that would be size 8 to 9, you may want to consider the next size down. However, if you normally wear a size 9, you will probably be okay with an 8 or 9.

You owe it to yourself to try a pair of Crocs when you shop online for shoes. They will be the most comfortable shoes you may ever try, and your feet will thank you for the purchase.
