    Hi everyone,

    Just registered just so I could join in this conversation - how sad am I?

    I have eight pairs of Crocs:

    2 Cayman purple & sea foam
    3 Mary Janes black, burgundy & lavender
    1 Endeavour/Aspen black
    1 Cleo in turquoise/sea foam
    1 Nile in black

    Have ordered from Taylors 3 times now. Just made bulk order of 8 pairs (for others in my family too) & got whacked with £36.50 VAT/Customs charges but still worked out about £18-£20 p/pair.

    US sizing is 2 sizes bigger than UK. I wear UK 7 & US 9.

    Just ordered sea foam Sassari & off road black/black & Sobek black/black both for my Dad. Waiting desperately for a black/white pair of Sassari but not desperate enough to pay £50 on Ebay when they should be in stock within the next couple of weeks!
  • Gosh bakerfa, I thought I was addicted to shoes! I tried a Beach pair on in the town, whcih fitted fine in a 7. That was the only style I could find in town though. So I've sent the Scutes back to Fitfeet and ordered an Athens pair as I thought they'd be good if we get hot weather again. Hope they fit this time.

    I know 8 sounds a lot but since buying my 1st pair in October I've only twice worn anything else - furry boots when it snowed. Every other day since then has been crocs, even with socks. The black niles & the mary janes in particular are fantastic for work.

    You're brave with the Athens. I can't stand anything between my toes!

    I had some Scutes but my instep's too high & they were really uncomfy so I sold them on Ebay. Have been quite good really, as they get new ones in that I want I have been selling my older ones on Ebay to fund the new ones. Especially since they're pretty much £15 in the US these days rather than £28 in my local Fenwicks.

    https://www.taylorshoes.com in KS, US or on Ebay if the price is right BUT if you buy
    lots from Taylors the 1st pair is $18 shipping but then it drops to about $5 each per additional pair so ordering several at once makes it much more cost effective.

    Forget Crocs Europe! My Dad broke a rivet on his (no idea how - they're indestructible) & decided to take the strap off so I have the intact strap & he has 1 shoe perfect & 1 with just 1 rivet on! E-mailed Crocs Europe like you're supposed to to get them to send me a couple of rivets to enable us to fix it & have been waiting over a month now...

    Just got cheeky with my Sassari order & they should be sending me 2 rivets from Taylorshoes now.

    If it was Barratts it may well be the Sketchers version of Crocs and are available in blue, pink and black. As I said before I got a couple of pairs of these in last year's sale and found them to be pretty good.

    The two pairs were definitely crocs - I've own a few pairs myself so I'm certain. I didn't see any Sketchers versions so maybe it wasn't Barratts that I saw them in....

    Oh dear. I came to this thread to say that Jade shoes are selling them online for £22.50 including postage but I see you are all getting them cheaper than that from Taylor shoes! To buy one pair how much would I pay including the postage? £20?
