=** Crocs Are Disgusting **=

Imagine your favorite pair of shoes. You may like them because of their color or because they are comfortable or because they’re the new trend. Your favorite pair of shoes may be a pair of vans, heels, or boots. They are your favorite because they make you feel confident, like a queen, and comfortable in your own shoes(literally); aka comfortable in your own self.

Now think of crocs. C R O C S. NO ONE thinks of crocs as their favorite pair of shoes, and if you do then I simply do not understand your reasoning. They are ugly, they are foam, and there’s holes in them. Foam is not a material made for shoes. Foam is used for furniture and exercise mats. NOT something you put on your feet.

What’s the point of having them? Your shoes are supposed to support you but how can FOAM do anything???? Maybe they’re comfortable or something but there’s no way someone can proudly say they feel confident in crocs.

They will not protect you from the rain. If you don’t wear socks, they will give you an awkward tan line. You can’t style these shoes with anything. Do you expect someone to wear crocs with a dress? With jeans? With shorts? To the beach? THAT’S RIDICULOUS!!

Now I know many people do this and I am high-key throwing shade right now because some foothill students wear crocs, but I just CANNOT tolerate those sorry excuses for shoes. There’s no way I would ever wear those shoes. If someone PAID me to wear crusty crocs or to even TOUCH those shoes, I would most definitely, one-hundred percent, without a doubt not take that offer. Some athletes wear crocs after practice or a game but my concluding advice is to go with the slides man, just go with the Nike slides.



Okay well I can't rotate this low quality photo. Sorry I'm an idiot.
