People Are Losing It Over High-heeled Crocs

123

ADVERTISEMENT

There’s a whole lot of snobbishness about Crocs going on out there. Like Nickleback and vegans, some things are seemingly just cool to hate.

Personally, I don’t see what all the fuss is about. They are super comfortable and serve a purpose, which is just fine for me. The latest outrage has arisen over the release of ‘high-heeled’ crocs, which are as practical yet slightly glamorous as you can imagine. While critics and fashionistas are howling about how ‘hideous’ they are, the people have spoken and they are selling like hotcakes, despite the hefty $55 dollar price.

“Get all the fashion without sacrificing the comfort. Dress them up or down, and enjoy wherever the day takes you!” Crocs say about the heels on their website. Do you agree? Would you buy a pair? Scroll down to check them out for yourself, and let us know what you think in the comments!

    I don't understand the hatred for Crocs, especially not the level where one says that others shouldn't wear them or even threaten with bodily harm if they see someone wearing them. It's not like someone is forcing you to wear them, and no one is forcing you to really look at other people's shoes. Not every shoe needs to be cute or "fashionable", some shoes needs to take function over form and it seems that is where Crocs have positioned themselves. Of course this specific choice tilts it slightly more towards form than usual but still function over form.

    I have 2 pairs of the high heeled Crocs from several years ago. They don't have the ankle/back strap, so they are really easy to slip on and off, and they are absolutely the MOST comfortable heels I have ever worn! I have a pair in black, and one in bright pink. When I posted a photo of the pink ones years ago, people tore me up and down, said they were so d*amn ugly, and so on. I couldn't believe it. I thought these were the nicest looking Crocs they ever came up with. And truly, the most comy heeled shoes I've ever worn. And I don't wear heels at all, but these, yes, these I can work with! My husband likes them too, especially the bright flamingo pink ones!

    Been wearing the heels for two years. Love them! Anyone who doesn't like them is welcome to fund a shoe shopping spree for me.

    Not sure what the big deal is. These have been around for years. I own Croc wedge shoes. They're really comfortable.
