I swore I'd never wear Crocs.  But, my mom & dad got me hooked on 'em.  My original Crocs are worn out so, in a recent visit to the Mall of America in the Twin Cities I stopped by the Crocs store to consider getting some replacements.   Hey...they were having a sale.

Now I agree they do tend to look kinda goofy.  The biggish shoes make your feet look like you are considering your total transition to a circus clown but aren't quite ready to commit.

But here's the deal.  They are good enough for royal toddler, Prince George of Cambridge. He was pictured wearing a pair of foam Crocs while his daddy participating in a charity polo match last week.  You can see the pictures at The Mirror.

And since then, sales of the slip-on style, cloggy, shoes have surged 1,500%!  That's a lot!

People are diggin' 'em.  I realize there are those Croc-Haters out there.  Anti-Crocites.  There are even websites dedicated to hatin' on the footwear.

But hey if you want some proof as to why crocs aren't just great because they are so easy to wear, check out this video.  It turns out they are good for your feet too!?
