There’s nothing quite like a Croc – if you’ve never worn one of these iconic rubbery sandals, you might think they look a bit funky. On the foot, though, they’re unbelievably comfortable, and with loads of styles to choose from there’s a reason they’ve maintained impressive popularity over the years.
Now Amazon is offering a fantastic opportunity to get a pair of your own, with a deal that knocks nearly half the price off a pair of Crocs Unisex Classic Clogs in black, making them just £25.99 instead of £44.99 (that’s for the vast majority of sizes, although it’s worth checking as a few aren’t quite as heavily discounted). There are a whole heap of sizes available, and also loads of colours, although you’ll find that pricing fluctuates a little, with most of the non-black colours costing a little or a lot more.
Still, black is pretty much the ideal colour, as it goes with anything. With an optional back-strap that you can swing around out of the way when you don’t want it, Crocs also offer two styles in one – open clogs or sandals. Being able to stick charms in their holes for personalisation is the cherry on top.
These are hugely popular, and the over 525,000 user ratings left behind so far really prove this – they average out to a score of 4.7 stars. One of these happy customers enthused: “These classic black Crocs are incredibly comfortable, durable, and versatile. Perfect for daily wear, they offer great support, are easy to clean, and pair well with any outfit. A must-have for anyone seeking practical, reliable, and stylish footwear.”
Another said: “Looks like I will be living with them from now on. I don’t want to wear shoes anymore. The size is correct and very comfy.”
A third added: “They’re comfortable, easy to slide on and off (which, if you have young kids coming in and out of the garden, are a godsend when you’re back and forth constantly!) and they’re so easy to clean.” However, some customers have shared criticisms.
One person griped: “My god the bumps inside them are so painful!” Another user complained: “They’re clearly of good quality but not wide enough for me to wear without the tops digging painfully into the top of my feet.”
For those looking for alternative options in terms of sensible footwear, Teva also has a very popular option – its Originals EVA Sandals are £50 and really simple, but comfortable and durable. If comfort is a priority, you could consider a pair of Foamies Arch Fit Footsteps from Skechers for £35 – but both these options are for women, rather than the unisex style Crocs offers.
