    Must resist, must resist.

    My youngest son has actually asked for a pair, so I will get a pair for him and might just check out the colours in my size while i'm at it.

    Resist resist

    What's the best deal on the jibbitz? I want daisies and a bee and butterfly. This could workout expensive. I hope they are comfortable

    I'm already an addict..I fancy the bright red ones next time.

    I've just ordered black ones for my son and , unbelievably, butter ones for my OH. He is so traditional I was quite knocked over when he asked me for a pair as mine look so comfortable and he needs something he can slip on to walk down to his workshop in the back garden rather than have to bother with trainers.

    I shouldn't keep coming back to this thread, its costing me a fortune :o

    Ordered the orange ones I linked Soolin too, well they are a bargain at £20 and also some jibbitz. I ordered the pink ribbon, a yellow duck, black cat, yellow smillie and a cherry one for a friend. £1.50 each and minimum order of 5. Despite what my daughter thinks I decided to be subtle with the jibbitz and have only put one on each pair :) Wore a pair with a jibbitz today and I couldn't feel it at all so yes, they are comfortable although I was careful where I put it.

    Very quick delivery despite my inputting my cc details wrongly.

    My god I cant believe these shoes have hit the UK now (I am in Oz and cant believe the craze over them!!) I am sorry, but they are hideous!!! If anyone wants me to buy a pair here and send them back for you, let me know - not sure of the cost though, I wonder if theyre cheaper?

    No accounting for taste I suppose ;)

    It's not about taste, it's about comfort. However, I do remember Jasper Carrott saying something about how as you get older, you lose your dress sense :eek: However, I do draw the line at those tartan slippers with bobbles :rotfl:
    You're only young once, but you can be immature forever :D

    But that cant be true I'm 21 and have just got my first pair and I dont care what any of my friends/ colleages at work think I'm gonna wear them with pride! At least I wont have crippled feet at 40 unlike some of my other frineds who wear ridiculously high shoes that they cant walk in !

    On a side note can we continually keep this post updated when we see good deals on crocs as I have admitdly become an addict of the fabulously comfy shoes, I've now bought 2 pairs in 2 days !

    I have just got back from the states where they were $30 dollars plus tax and I thought they looked awfull until I tried them on.I still couldn't bring myself to getting any as I thought they looked silly even though they were soooo comfy..My feet were killing me in vegas so ended up buying some timberland sandals at $20 to find they gave me blisters....Now I have returned from vegas.. I ordered a pair of crocs yesterday online for £20....I gave in as I am now thinking of my feet and not what they look like...I have even ordered some jibbitz to brighten them up....I have now learnt you need comfort and could kick myself for not getting them in vegas...

    :joooooooooooo, I might just be trying several pairs on next weekend :j


    If I get addicted to MORE shoes then its all your fault EdLass for dragging me back to this thread :p
    Sometimes it's important to work for that pot of gold...But other times it's essential to take time off and to make sure that your most important decision in the day simply consists of choosing which color to slide down on the rainbow...
