Crocs every time. I've got 6 different pairs!! The only thing to wear for camping (although I do pack a £1:00 pair of Primani flip flops just in case there's something really mucky to do - don't want to spoil my crocs!!!)

I'm looking for a pair of black croc flip flops in a size 7, unfortunately only lime green in stock at Sports Direct. I have a two pairs of crocs, a red pair and a pale blue pair. I did have a beige pair but had to bin them as I wore them so much the soles were really slippy where the tread wore away! I've gone off the normal crocs a bit now so only wear them in the garden/ hanging out the washing etc.

I'm a croc girl.

Timberlands in winter and crocs in summer! Have got cayman, baya, maryjane and mammoth styles in black, turquoise, ruby, celery, seafoam, lavender and khaki.

I'm sad I know but they are just sooooooo comfy

Best wishes Sam

My wife forced.... er, umm, I mean 'persuaded' me to try crocs whilst on a tenting outing. They cost less than 40 GBP.
Just checked with her, 5 GBP from Studio 21.

She had to return them and get a size larger than my normal shoe size.

They can be worn with the heel strap forward, like a flip-flop, or back, like a normal shoe.

Still taking time to get used to them.

Thank goodness she got them in Green, and not Pink. LOL

Regards James

I'm a crocs girl too!  I work in a butchers shop on the deli counter I wear them all day long then sling them in the wash when I get home. They are the most comfortable things I have ever worn. I got them from sports direct £10.00 for the real ones but the croc o likes from the market are just as good.  I take them camping and don't wear anything else the whole time I'm away!

Crocs when it's wet, Croc flip-flops when it's dry! I suffer with a bad back and find walking in ordinary flip-flops makes it worse I think it's because they are usually totally flat whereas the Croc flip-flops have a slightly raised heel!

I used to hate crocs ( on adults!) until we started camping last yr!

I have a black pair ( skechers ones) which are fab for popping to the shower / loo etc, also have a pink ballerina type pair ( "proper" Crocs make) but they rub my feet

I do not wear them when not camping,well maybe in the garden lol

I have some crocs without holes in, fantastic for wet grass on site (I had my first pair of crocs for work a few years ago, makes an amazing difference wen you're on your feet for 12 hours at a time).

I have some birkenstcks and a pair or canvas ballet pumps for out and about though.
