    Put in an order from Fitfeetuk.com for some Crocs for my boys on Weds night= Just got an email to say they are out of stock!!!

    Think I might take the plungenoe and order from Taylorshoes, but wanted black Mary Janes in a UK4 in black and even they don`t have any stock!

    elantan, if you go on to https://www.jellyegg.com you can find out your US Croc size by using their handy conversion tool- then order from Taylors.

    Does anyone with Athens find they hurt between yours toes? I usually have terrible problems but would lve some for my hols!

    Thanks

    They feel a lot more comfortable than usual flipflops I think. My Beach style ones are fantastic and I wear them all the time. I will probably wear the Athens ones more when its hot.

    I LOVE my Mary Janes although I have never tried them with socks. I have 3 pairs & I think they're great, particularly for work. The only time I'd ever had a problem was with my Caymans on a hot day when they rubbed a blister but I'd been squelching a bit so my feet were sweaty, hot & swollen because of the weather. Never had a prob since.

    Check out http://www.shoe-doodles.co.uk/ for some alternative jibbitz. Also
    https://www.decorateyourfeet.co.uk & https://www.jibbitz.co.uk (which is really lookatmycrazyshoes.com). Have ordered from all 3 of these in the past & would save waiting for an American order.


    HAVE JUST REALISED - Decorateyourfeet is the retail arm of Shoe Doodles but the layout on their site is worse. Might be worth looking at the wholesale site on Shoe Doodles then hunting down your favourites on Decorateyourfeet. I love the Care Bears & Garfield ones.

    I would have thought UK 5 was a US 7. I'm UK 7 US 9.

    I think whether Mary Janes feel comfy for a long time is all about your instep. They have a reasonable instep built in and since mine is high I get support from them all day, whereas if your instep is shallower then maybe they might be uncomfortable walking about all day...

    Give me your opinions...

    Hi Guys

    I now like my scutes as I have managed to stretch the one that was hurting my foot.

    I bought DD1 a pair of Caymans as reward for chucking her Dora trainers and being well behaved. The deal is she has to wear skecher ones for school and normal ones for the rest of the time. She has nicked my stitch jibbitz- meanie!

    DD2 has lost 1 skecher so I am reluctant to buy another pair incase the 1 skecher missing turns up. She hasn't stopped going on about her "crocs". Although they were only £7.49 I don't want to just buy another pair. Good job it wasn't real croc i'd be mad.

    Any god online croc sellers that take paypal? Don't want to risk ebay though I don't think...unless you know of any really recommended sellers!

    Taylor's take paypal and the exchange rate makes it a brilliant bargain at the moment. The only drawback though is gambling on not having to pay import tax and handling.

    Soo (I want my sassaris)

    I am not allowed to post it here but look on the referrers' board at my post about https://www.lovethoseshoes.co.uk - they sell crocs!

    Thank you, I did look at that. Unfortunately LTS sells at RRP and you pay a great deal for p and p which makes them just about the dearest stockist. Even with the £10 voucher it is possible to buy cheaper, but maybe if someone is desperate for a particular style in a difficult to get size then this might be useful for them.

    Obviously if they could get hold of some Sassaris we;d all flock there :eek:

    Did someone mention Sassaris? :drool:

    I SO want a pair - waiting for Taylors to get stock in my size. Really still not sure whether I will need a US 9 or 10. :confused:

    which crocs are the comfiest ...do you wear sox with them ?

    I have wider feet and I've been converted to Crocs after reading this thread! I only have 1 pair of the "Beach" style which I got from Jellyegg, but they are the comfiest shoes I've ever worn. I've always had funny feet and really struggle to find comfy shoes. I tried wearing my Crocs without socks but I didn't like the sweaty sensation on the soles of my feet, so I usually wear them with socks now and they are a lot more comfortable. I wear them all the time now and I've just ordered 2 more pairs from Taylor's shoes. I guess it's down to personal preference which ones you like and whether you wear them without socks or not!
