Teacher with Flat Feet
•WHY I BOUGHT THIS SHOE•1. I am a middle school science teacher who is on her feet/standing for 7-9 hours a day. I used to be a waitress, bartender, and CNA who would stand for even longer... Think 12 hours2. I injured my foot somehow over the years and now I have a fallen arch/flat foot/foot drop and arthritis per my doctor. The pain is so great that I limp around most of the time.•PROS OF THIS SHOE•1. IT WORKS!!!!! My foot is no longer in shooting pain after school. In fact, my foot doesn't hurt at all in that area. Of course, my feet are "sore" from standing all day, but that's how normal, non-injured feet feel after working.2. VERY CUTE! I got the black rose design and it goes with all of my black slacks.3. THE PRICE! I did not have $180 to drop on a shoe that may or may not work. My husband has Crocs slides and loves them, so I went out on a limb and purchased this. I do not regret it and I will be buying more pairs.4. ARCH SUPPORT: The Crocs insoles have good arch support, but you may want to use your insole if you have a medical issue with your feet. The sole is squishy and comfortable on my injured foot.•CONS OF THIS SHOE•1. SQUEAKY! I had to tell all of my classes that, yes, I know my shoes squeak, but no, I don't care, because my feet feel amazing. It sounds like a duck quacking. If you are easily embarrassed, this might be a con for you.2. TIGHT across the top! This is fixable, I just haven't had time to fix it yet. You can put your shoes on with 2-3 pairs of thick socks and blow dry them for as long as you can take it. This will stretch your shoes out.3. SORE muscles? Granted, I have had a foot injury for years, and it has probably affected how I walk. After two days of wearing these shoes, every muscle in my legs is SORE. I can barely bend or climb steps. I assume this is because the shoes are correcting my gait and posture, which was incorrect/overcompensating for my foot injury before.•HOW DOES IT FIT?•I usually size up due to my insoles. I suggest the same for this shoe. I am usually an 8.5 and I got a 9. Half-size feet should size up, in my opinion. This may help with some of the tightness across the top.I suggest wearing thick socks with these shoes if you don't like the slip and slide that clogs create.The toe box is very roomy and makes my arthritic toe feel very nice. (Arthritis is a side effect of the flat foot...)It is tight across the top, but like I said, that is fixable.I have small heels and these do not slide off my feet or cause blisters.•A NOTE ON INSOLES•I took the Crocs insole out and added my own orthopedic insole. I had no problem with this. You definitely don't want to wear both insoles at once. Pick one!•THE VERDICT•Overall, I WOULD buy these shoes again. I WOULD recommend them to a friend. They DO help with fallen feet. After two days of constant wear, I am very happy.

Tightness
I wear a size 9 shoe. I ordered size 9. They fit great. When I first put them on, they were a bit tight at the top of the shoe entrance point. I read the reviews and one of them said to use a hairdryer to loose this. I did exactly what the reviewer said to do and it worked great. It's also a very quick fix. Here's the trick..put on two pairs of socks and slide on the shoe. Hairdryer on hottest setting, heat up the part of the shoe that feels tight. I did this for about 2-3 minutes for each shoe and done. They now feel great and look great. Good price so worth the few minutes to make your new shoes work for you.

Style seems to have changed
I used to buy these in stores and loved the softer foot bed but these did not fit me the same so I had to return. I only gave 4 stars because I know they could be good for someone who likes this type of shoe but for me the shoe didn’t come around my foot enough to cover my whole foot. I like the top of my foot and ankle area to be fully covered. The back of the shoe felt almost like half clog on me. I felt as though it would slip when walking and sure enough it did. The comfort of the insole seemed adequate but can’t be sure since I returned them

Great for outdoors in the rain or for gardening [but hot soles]
I tend to border normal width [wide could be better or worse for me]. The shoes felt very comfortable....not too loose....not too snug, with a nice toe box. I will admit, the colored pattern was a little funkier than I would normally venture to wear. I am returning the first pair for the black ones with the gray floral pattern. I thought those might also be "too much." But that pattern is actually more subtle. I wouldn't feel embarrassed if I forgot to change shoes before heading to the store, LOL. They fit like Dansko's, but are a heck of a lot lighter! The downside is that I wouldn't be able to tolerate them as a shoe for standing in all day [outside of garden work] b/c they are too hot on the soles for me :( If that isn't an issue for you and you like arch support, these are great.I would like to try a pair that are just the clogs. I purchased a different style that, unfortunately, doesn't work with my feet issues. But, I bet this same style, in clog form, would fit just as well [& I always like extra garden shoes :)].I have been impressed with how quickly these shoe orders have been getting processed [and how easy the returns have been, so far].Update: Disappointed, I knocked a star off for size inconsistency. This new pair [same exact model/size] fits tighter across the top. I probably would do fine if I always wore them without socks. But, I a work in the yard through all kinds of weather & I could tell these would bother me. Now, I am conflicted. Do I keep the louder pair after all & return these new ones? And it also makes me wonder how differently the clogs might fit. I miss a good old fashioned shoe store for this :(

Great support for a great price!
The arch support and comfort without the large price tag! I was very pleased to find these for work. I am on my feet a lot and they give me the support needed to make it through the day. Thank you Crocs!

Great shoes
Very happy with the purchase! I’m a surgical tech and these are easy to clean and comfortable to stand in for a long period of time! Not sure if they will last as long as my Dancecos, but for the price I can’t complain!

Tight
Not wide enough, kind of tight in the top. Still hope they stretch.Update, didn’t stretch much. I wish I could return them but it’s too late. They actually hurt my toes now after wearing them all day every day at work.

Value for your money
I just received my purchase, and I must say this is one of my best buy’s. It’s very comfortable and fitting for my job. It also gives my feet supports so they don’t hurt after long standing. I would definitely recommend.
