Hi all

The men in my family want the Off road Crocs - needless to say they seem to be harder than gold dust to find.

I'm looking for a chocolate in size 9 and black in size 10.
Anyone please??

I ordered some from ebay and the chap hasn't sent them so am in dispute via paypal to get my ££ back .

Thanks

Lizzy

This website has some but I've no idea how you select the sizes. It's a maternity sales website

Peabodys have the black ones in a 10.

I'm so excited! Got my peacock Alice in the post today from Taylor's. Was terrified they wouldn't fit but they seem to be perfect (haven't actually worn them out of the house yet...!)

Had no idea until now that there was a whole thread on here with people buying them the same way I had. Good job really, as it seems some people have to pay more at Customs - if I'd known that I would've been scared.

Anyway, I'm so delighted I have pretty Crocs, as I still think the Cayman-types are !!!!!! (sorry to anyone who likes them, both my sisters have a pair and it was their Croc-love that got me searching for pretty ones!)

I reckon I will give them a few days at work to see if they live up to their comfort potential, then just maybe I'll be ordering another pair in grape (in the dark, without telling my husband who thinks they are silly and didn't understand why I danced round the room in them for half an hour after I had opened the box!):T

I got the black/black Off Roads for my Dad and he thinks they're great. Taylor shoes have the chocolate 9s but not the black ones.

I bought Alices but they were much too narrow for me so I sold mine on Ebay.

My Mammoths left Chicago and arrived in the UK on Thursday lunchtime but Parcelforce haven't updated their tracking so I'm left wondering if they're sitting in a box in the airport or on their way to me! They're supposed to be marked gift so no Customs charges. I hope I get them soon!:(

As an addition to my previous gush about my new Alices, I emailed Taylor's with positive feedback (gotta reward good service, and complain about bad!) and said how I would end up buying them in more colours.

Within an hour, I have had this reply back:

(Mrs A),
Thank you for your kind words. Please feel free to share our site with your friends and family and by all means, do not hold back on more colors.

I love the personal touch almost as much as I love my new shoes (which have just been for a walk and are still comfy!):D

That is clever - I'll have to try that.

I'm delighted with my new first crocs - black cays from Littlewoods, heavily discounted. Can't believe how comfy they are and how they seem to stick to the foot and don't flop off. I find I'm even dog-walking in them - and using them as slippers!
Next I would love some Georgie's but can't find them anywhere discounted. Annoyed because I missed some on ebay last week.

Thank you for the links - as you say with that first website - you appear to have no way to chose the size:rolleyes: :rolleyes: .

Another croc lover here! I have sworn that I will never buy another pair of 'normal' shoes again as they are sooo comfy. Only got a black pair of Mary Janes, but have worn them nearly everyday since I bought them two months ago.

I'm also loving the new Alice crocs. It must be fate as I really wanted a smarter pair for work (though I do wear the MJ's) and was going on at my sis that I wanted some ballet pump type shoes in a plummy colour and there they were! My name is Alice as well!!!

My only worry which has stopped me ordering a pair is that I have wide feet and bunions (well only one now since one foot was operated on last year).

Please can anyone who has got the Alice crocs post a piccie so I can see what they actually look like on? Pretty please!

bakerfa

If you've got wide feet forget it! or order at least one size larger than you'd need with Mary Janes.

I have 3 prs Mary janes, 2 Caymans, 2 Sassaris, 1 Endeavour, 1 Cleo and I found the Alices hellishly tight. They are low enough around the toes that you can see the tops of all your toes which I don't like and were so narrow that I put mine straight on Ebay. They fit like a fairly slim fitting pair of normal shoes and I've got used to having a space round my foot now & it doesn't feel right putting something so enclosing on.

money saving site pah!

Now I want Alice shoes in ruby - the only thing better than that would be to make them glittery then they can be my Dorothy shoes and I can go to Oz :cool:

And I looked at Taylor shoes and they're out of stock in my size

bakerfa

Actually that's what I thought - Dorothy shoes. Strangely the grape ones were quite sparkly but the red ones were matt. Don't understand what was going on with that!
