Not sure how tacky plastic foam shoes fit into Lego’s quest to improve their environmental impact. This press release looks straight out of “The Onion”.

If I saw some crocs for $10 I would get them only because I have heard they are the most comfortable shoes ever by pretty much everyone I know who has worn them.

I just wish they didn't look so god awful fucking stupid.

They are extremely uncomfortable and people are only wearing them for the looks

[–] scrion@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

IMHO, they have expanded their range of looks quite a bit. But, to be completely honest, I'm currently even wearing a pair of pretty unsightly Crocs, just because they are so goddamn pleasant to walk in.

They are pretty damn comfy. Also waterproof and they float.

They're not your "on your feet all day, walking to and from A to B constantly" shoes, but they're good for a casual comfy shoe.

Also waterproof

How does water not pass through all the big-ass holes? 🤔

[–] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

It does, but the foam won’t absorb it.

It’s great for things around water because the dry quickly.

Also great for slipping on to go outside real quick (to get the mail, take out the trash,)

I used to know people that would wear them all day at work- but they were working in a clean room and had overshoes they had to wear anyways. (They got into trouble because it had no heel.)

You've reminded me of that Vin Diesel movie xXx.
