The Crocs Fever : I Have Hole-Ridden Shoes

I know some people will have me crucified for this, but yeah, I did it. I got myself a pair of those hole-ridden footwear some people find really annoying. Truth be told, I was one of those guys who would laugh at anyone who would wear such “abomination”. Haha. But it seems like I’m gonna eat my own words and chew on my tongue because I got myself a pair just yesterday. I was just loitering around the mall and saw these (see below), tried one of those (for curiousity’s sake) and man, are they comfy! 

Fashion or Comfort?

I think whoever designed this “thing” had fashion as the last thing on his/her mind. I agree that there are certain designs that would really strike your funny bone. (Clue: Only clowns wear neon colored footwear.) But if there’s one thing on the designer’s mind, it’s definitely comfort. Because these things are too damn comfortable.

I wasn’t really supposed to buy one. Just so happened that I’ve misplaced my walking sandals. If you’ve been wearing closed shoes during the past 5-work days, your feet’s gonna deserve some loving. One way to do that is to make sure they can breathe on the 2 days you’re not required to wear closed shoes. 

And since I am a fan of walking, it is imperative that my feet are comfortable during my mall raids and “senti walks”. And by senti walks I mean “aimless walking near emo places”. I sometimes do that after a hearty meal. LOL. So basically, it’s really a matter of comfort over fashion. So to those who would be laughing at me for my “stupidity” for spending for these “stupid rubber shoes” and walking around wearing them, I say go ahead. Hahaha! But I tell you, if there’s one thing I’m sure about, it’s the fact that your feet is definitely envious of my feet’s heavenly condition.

I say you try it. Who knows, maybe you’ll be a convert yourself?
