Crocs Capri sandals
Well, those Mohop sandals are cute and all, but I’m more of an affordable-footwear girl—and if they’re comfortable enough to wear on walks and indelicate enough to tromp through puddles, all the better. Added bonus if they’re flip-flops, my idea of the perfect shoe.
My latest flip-flop purchase came from Crocs, the people who make what surely has to be the world’s ugliest yet most beloved clog. I have yet to drink the Croc-Clog Koolaid, but I can wholeheartedly recommend their Capri sandal. It feels fantastic, looks sporty-yet-attractive, and it even has “circulation nubs” on the sole to stimulate blood flow in my happy, happy feet.
They’re more expensive than most of my other thong-type shoes but at $40, it’s not a bad price for a shoe that I’m positive will be in heavy rotation all summer long.

Ballpark price: $40 (I got my pair at Joe’s Sporting Goods for a few bucks less)

They look like they are a little heavy in the heel. Do they make that annoying flip-flip-flip noise when you walk, the one that is especially noticeable in a quiet place? I like the little bit of a heel on them, though. It elevates them beyond the cheapy plastic flip-flop.

A note about Crocs. I read Sweden banned them in hospitals because they caused “lightning clouds” of static electricity that jammed medical equipment. Strange eh?

I might have to get a pair of those… question though, just wondering… do you normally order these things online? Or are you buying them at some retail outlet? I haven’t seen these around.
I like the flip-flop noise too, isn’t that what they’re named for?

They were on sale last week at Dick’s Sporting Goods for 29.99. I was looking for a pair for my kiddo. Mostly to annoy Dad who is a fashionisto.

The Croc clog Kool-Aid. Bahhaha. I liked the Croc clogs when they first hit the shelves, but soon they were ubiquitous and worn with socks and it was like a whole epidemic of “the future [of footwear] is in plastics” believers. Yawikes.

Even though the Crocs are ugly, I want some because I need something I can wear to work after going barefoot all day in the summer, and I don’t want to wear socks. I wish they could make them a little cuter and less ubiquitous, though.

If you check out the Crocs website, there is a new Mary Jane clog style that’s MUCH cuter than the original.
