Let me put it out there right now: I used to hate Crocs. Actually, Crocs (and their ugly footwear twin, Vibram Five-Fingered Shoes ) are one of the few things my husband and I used to argue about. Every time he'd put on his Crocs, or his Vibrams (which have been described by his co-workers as "creepy toe shoes") I'd encourage other shoe choices. Or going barefoot. ANYTHING but the Crocs. Confession time: I don't think that the (cuter) Crocs are that bad.
