Mmm. I'm going to Cyprus in August. Can't wait. I'm looking for some crocs - the cheap copy type. The ones I've tried so far have rubbed against my third toe because of the angle at the front. Perhaps I should try bigger ones but will I then be tripping over :rotfl:
Anyone else had this problem?
Not sore when I wear them - how weird is that and why?
Am bit gutted........... so comfy when on........Genie

I think it's our toes :rotfl:
You're probably like me and have toes that don't slope much - another :rotfl:
The crocs have quite a sharp angle to them.
My OH has one long big toe - cue another :rotfl:
No sorry, two (one on each foot). And so would get on really well with crocs although I can't think of a funnier sight.
So, for us it's got to be limit the croc wearing time and get back to the white stilettos. Mule style of course.

Why don't they actually hurt when i wear them? Only when take them off and, and, why only my left foot?? Oh, on my right foot - second toe does a curly thingy towards my big toe and my third toe is lower.. that could be why it doesn't hurt on the right one
Are you from White Stiletto County too??Genie

Sounds like the reason your right foot might be okay.
Don't know about the first question. Maybe they will never hurt when you wear them and perhaps you will wear them in. didn't someone say they are made of a resin and mould to your foot? How many times have you worn them now?
I haven't tried any yet. Have decided not to try any more cheap ones and to wait til I can get to a proper stockist. Might take a while!
Re the WS county - Not technically, but just next door0 -
I've only worn them twice so far. First time for hours as they were very comfy til I took them off!
I may try and break them in a bit more wearing socks, as someone else mentioned on another post. Could look a bit odd and hope no one knocksGenie

If your Crocs hurt or rub, try putting them in hot water for a few minutes, take them out and stuff tightly with paper (or old socks) in the place they rub, leave till cool. It should stretch them a little in that spot.I let my mind wander and it never came back!0

Thank you for that. Will try it. I pottered about in them for a few hours earlier but have a short while ago painted my toenails a rather bright pink for my hols and don't want to muck them up, so they are redundant for a few hours - so, a good time to try that - its only the left one, oddly - but then, so are my feetGenie

Have now been and tried on some proper crocs. They touch against the third toe on my left foot. Other than that they were very comfortable. So I am ordering some mary janes online as they look more rounded at the toes and as if they will fit better.
Hope you have a lovely holiday jeannie and enjoy wearing your crocs xx0 -
Well, I caved...
I ordered black Sassari's.... I love my caymen's, and I have a pair of Prima's as well that aren't so comfortable owing to the fact you have to have elfish feet to wear themBut the Sassari's should look lovely with my summer dresses and jeans.
