In another thread, somebody was denigrating Crocs. *In reality, they
make good boat shoes and are much better than my normal flip flops.
You have to realize that in N. FL summers, wearing normal shoes would
simply be stupid. *The only prob I have with em is that you cannot
easily walk in the water because they come off to easily but are much
better than flip flops.
Last week while at the Nantahala Outdoor Center in NC, I finally
bought some Teva water shoes and I like em cuz they will not easily
come off in the water and protect the side of the foot better than
Crocs. *I still wear the Crocs when I need to go outside quickly to
chase down our crazed escape expert Catahoula dog. *I suspect the
Crocs will never stink as badly as the teva will eventually unless
washed.
You do flip the little 'strap' behind your heel when using crocs around the
water eh?
Around the house I just flip that strap forward.
BTW...the Crocs aren't supposed to hold odor...unless you smell like Dingy
Dan. *Then all bets are off.
Hmm, my Crocs do not have that little strap. It would be very useful
too.
Now as far as color is concerned, I am enough of a curmudgeon to not
care what anybody thinks so I think pink would be useful in finding em
in dark water (they're gonna go into the water sooner or later). Mine
are black and I nearly lost one at Cedar key.
