Here Croc. There Croc. Everywhere Croc Croc

Wow! It seems more and more people are wearing Crocs sandals these days. This simple rubber sandal has hit town like a big superstar. They come in many different colours but with a very similar design. The latest i noticed was the leather version. Phew! Back in my school days, there were some footwear which caught up with the people. There's the Neckerman sandals (some designs make u look like a Roman Gladiator) and the Teva sandals.

Aniwae, back to the Crocs. They dun come cheap for something which looked so simple. At least 40 bucks, irregardless of size. Just for a little bit of info. Did u noe that these sandals/shoes were originally intended as a boating/outdoor shoe because of its slip-resistant, non-marking sole? By 2003 Crocs had become a phenomenon, universally accepted as an all purpose shoe for comfort and fashion. Amazing huh!

But will these shoes stand against the test of time? Will it be a long-term trend or short term fad? Will it face the same fate as the Neckerman or Teva sandals which at one time was hot until eventually the craze just fizzes out? And to add salt to injury, competitors are offering a similar design at almost 80% off the price! Only time will tell.

By the way, wat happened to Bubble Tea.....?
