Finding My Croc Shoes

Let me just start by saying, I love my crocs shoes. I was one of the ones who balked at the shoes, taking forever to even try a pair on, mainly because I thought they were the ugliest shoes I’d ever seen, and those colors, who wore those bright, rubbery shoes?

And then I tried a pair on. I was almost embarrassed at how perfect these shoes were. I spent an entire year of my life mocking these shoes, and after only a few seconds, I was in love with the comfort. I walked around the store, and it was like gliding on air. But, after a look in the mirror, I was still a little bit skeptical, so I put them back on the shelf and decided against purchasing them.

There I stood in the shoe store, with a pair of green Crocs on, not sure what to do next. “Walk around,” my friend said. I cruised up and down the aisles. I was almost too proud to admit how right he was. It was like clouds were forming under my feet with each step.I had never felt that kind of comfort. But, as I walked passed a mirror, I was still skeptical about how they looked. Although they were the most comfortable shoes I had ever tried on, I decided to pass on buying them that day because I was still a little turned off by the way they looked.

Then, a few months later, my life changed for the better. I was at a sporting good store, and I came across a pair of Crocs that didn’t have that bulky look I was used to. I tried on a pair, and surely enough that comfort was there. I frantically searched the shelves for a pair in my size and color. I put them on right there, took the box to the counter to pay for them, and walked out of the store wearing the shoes that I never wanted to take off.

As soon as I got home I fired up the computer and checked out Crocs.com, and was amazed with what I saw. There were heels, wedges, metallics, shoes that could be worn with dresses, slacks, oh my, I was in heaven. All I had to do was go to crocs.com and pick out my favorites.

Now all I have to do is slip on my Hanalei, Rio, or Postiano’s and look pulled together and no one will ever know that my feet are wrapped in luxurious comfort and not screaming from being pinched together in some hard, inflexible shoe.
