I love Crocs.

And here’s why…

Crocs are the ultimate yard shoe.

You can garden in them, run out and get the paper or the mail in them, wear them in the rain, splash in mud puddles and get them as dirty as you want. There’s no shoe out there that’s easier to clean off than a Croc- and when they look completely worn out, it’s no biggie- They’re so cheap that you can easily afford to buy a new pair.

I love them even more, though, for my kids. Each summer, both my children get a brand new pair of Crocs- and they LIVE in them. Suddenly, getting the kids out the door is a breeze- There are no velcro straps, no buckles, no laces to tie. They simply insert their feet into their Crocs and we’re out the door.

And again, with kids we have the cleaning issue. Kids get shoes dirty. Crocs are easy to clean off. Crocs are cheap.
