You are being lied to

When I spot someone wearing crocs, I know immediately that we have nothing in common and that we could never be friends or have nay meaningful kind of relationship.  They come in every conceivable color imaginable but look bad with every other article of clothign ever created.  Come to think of it, the only thing that goes well with crocs is social ostracism.

However to their credit, crocs serve as an excellent idiot barometer, you can tell a lot about a person who wears them. Namely to avoid them.  When it comes to shoes, there are generally 3 deciding factors: Quality, Cost, and style.  Some shoes are cheap and stylish, but terrible quality.  Other are stylish and durable but you have to put out some serious coin.  Crocs usually go for $25-$60, which doesn’t sound like much for a shoe, until you come to the realization that all you’re paying for is melted pellets squirted into a cast-iron mold in some backwoods slave province in China.  Crocs have the rare combination of being too pricey for their value, as well as ugly and poor quality.  It’s an amazing accomplishment for one shoe to suck so very badly. 

People who wear crocs go on and on about how comfortable they are and how it allegedly is odor resistent since its made out of some phony anit-bacterial foam.  Great Point.  You k now what else its resistent to? You getting laid.
