Crocs Fad slowing

[nmoraitis]

Bad news for the workers, but good news for anyone that hates these things. I was wondering when this fad would die.

Good, I have been chilling this bottle of champagne for almost three years now.

I patiently wait for their trendy retrosurgence in 8 years.

Honestly, I don't think that the fad will come back at all...I wouldn't be surprised if some "designer" house made their own tacky take on it though.

They're cute on little kids. I'm sure parents love them (no laces to tie).

I heard the news on NPR and wanted to leap for joy. My heart goes out to the folks who are losing their jobs, but hooray for those of us who hate seeing those ugly shoes.

This might be better news than 08' election, now we just have to wait for the supply on the streets to dry up....and we're home free.

Good news, yet the fad is far from dying.

I hate those hideous things too. But I ain't sure if the fad will really fade out. New styles have come out and I guess more people are wearing these crocs nowadays.

Just when I was about to buy me some!

I'm starting to see them in China.

I was just thinking what perverted mind would create those things.

But they're so pretty.

I hate them with an ambivalent passion. Even more so since Someone mistook the grey felt Birkenstocks I wear on a regular basis for a pair.
