Crocs

[terrywogan]

I know it's sad, but while I was in Toronto recently I bought a couple of pairs of Crocs! However, I forgot to buy the Croc Butter to give them a nice shine. Does anyone know where I can buy Croc Butter over the counter! I don't want to have to pay �5 delivery for a �3.50 item, which I will have to if I buy over the internet. I have a Freedom pass, so anywhere in London would do.

oh my god croc butter, whatever next, its bad enough that they are making money out the shoes. Sorry had to rant and eveb you said its sad. I'm not uite sure where you'd find it. I've seen a few croc stalls in my local mall, have you tried there

[Pippa68]

I wear mine in the mud. Not bothered about them being shiny!

Sorry I can't help..

[4getmenot]

doesnt the mud go through the holes?

[Pippa68]

I have the ones without the holes for muddy stuff (and horse poo).

I also have the ones with holes for the beach. I have brown spots on my feet from wearing them in the sun!

[4getmenot]

I thought better of you pip

[Pippa68]

It's not as if I wear them clubbing, 4get ;o)

Anyhoo..once you get to my age the comfort factor is ahead of anything else..lol.

[4getmenot]

but even if they're comfy surely older people dont have to wear those bright coloured ones round the supermarket

[Pippa68]

I'll give you that one..

[4getmenot]

thanks :-)

Thanks, Pippa68 and 4getmenot. I'm new at this Croc wearing game! The instructions said, give them a wash, dry them and apply Croc Butter to keep them looking nice.
I've only been back a couple of days, so I've not had time to go shopping: I'm still jet lagged.
Pippa68: you're right. Once you get your Freedom Pass, comfort is a priority. I did, however, wear my Crocs to clubs in Toronto: I was dragged there by my daughter and I only went on the understanding that I could wear them!
4getmenot: I haven't completely gone mad. I bought very sober colours: navy, black and brown. Very respectable for going round Sainsbury's!

I am a 28 yr old fashion concsious woman, and I have two pairs of Crocs. There is absolutely nothing wrong with them, they are fantastic. You can walk miles in them and not rub your feet. I have never used the butter, think its a waste of money. I just put them in the sink with washing up liquid and dry them, they still look as good as when I first bought them.

[terrywogan]

Thanks, Kaztuz. It's all turning out to be such a performance to find this damn Butter, I think I'll do just what you do.

[4getmenot]

Glad to hear it :-) think its just a marketing ploy.

Hi - go to the supermarket and buy one of those cheap shoe shine sponges (usually neutral colour and about 60p) brings them up a treat. I have had a look at crocs butter and it appears to be similar.

[terrywogan]

Thanks, ruthiebabie. I've decided to just wash my Crocs in water and washing up liquid and not worry about getting them shiny. I need to economise!

Actually if you visit

or http://www.lookatmycrazyshoes.com/product_info .php/products_id/1502{2}596{1}597?colour=597&s ize=596

you can buy the CrocsButter for �3.50 and delivery if FREE! unless of course you choose next day delivery which will cost you �4. But to be honest with you this product looks exactly like a normal shoe shine pad that you can buy in pretty much any supermarket or shoe shop!
