Crocs

[philandlil]

Where can i buy Caymen Crocs from, i live in the Leeds area? I don't want to buy online as i would like to try them on before i buy them?.

Don't do it!!!!!

Faith and Schuh in leeds both have them in stock. Bear in mind with a croc that there should be a space all around your footbed when they are on and you should be able to comfortably put your finger between the back of your heel and the strap.

my local Brantano had them in stock the other day, as well as their 'own make'

Thanks for your answers. Ruthiebabie- Where have they moved Faith to, it used to be just outside the Headrow shopping centre but they closed and i haven't seen another?

The best place to buy crocs is in Horsforth in a shop called Missy they have about 100 different styles to choose from

There's also a stall in the White Rose Centre which sells them (although not sure if they are proper ones or their own brand)

Hi, I don't want to appear rude, but why would you buy a shoe that is meant to mould itself to your feet in a size that guarantees it will flap about as suggested by ruthiebabie?

I have Crocs and they fit me so that the footbed is the exact length of my sole and the straps (should I decide to wear them on the back) are touching my heel comfortably. I have worn these in all weathers except bad winter conditions and they have never caused my any pain or blisters. this includes walking the length of Oxford St in last years July heatwave. I think I was one of the only people in comfy shoes that day!

I hope you enjoy your Crocs whatever you decide to do as they can be amazingly comfortable.

In terms of the fit - this is from Crocs.com

Crocs� should not fit like other shoes:

They should fit very loosely.
The sides of your foot should not really touch the sides of the shoe.
Your toes should never make contact with the front of the shoe.
Once you have centered your foot on the foot-bed:
You should have about a 1/4 to 1/2 inch of space in front of your toes, behind your heel and when you lift the strap you should be able to comfortably get your finger between the strap and heel.
In other words the fit should be "loose".
I know that this goes against everything that you have ever been used to in a shoe, but these are the parameters that the shoe was designed to be worn under.
No Pressure points Ever!
