Tsk tsk. You haven't met my fineshmecker brother, apparently. Nor my father, aka Imelda Marcos (granted, everything in his closet was purchased by females). <br /><br />Since when are Tod's unappealing? They are quite chinosh, thank you very much!

Those are a tad shapeless, I'll grant you. <br /><br />The first person to wear Cros was laughable, not cool.Princess Leahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17217157534383672867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6017927177231080668.post-85920624304499108532011-10-04T13:27:14.426-04:002011-10-04T13:27:14.426-04:00I never said my mother would agree with that senti...I never said my mother would agree with that sentiment. ;-) I suppose Hungarian males just don’t hold themselves to such high standards... :-P <br /><br />Although, I should add, if a formidable designer made an unappealing yet comfortable shoes they would be probably be a hit. Oh, wait, they already have one: Tods! Would that imply that chic is more of a function of perception, exclusivity, and price? Perhaps. Wearing crocs nowadays isn’t cool, but the first person who did probably was.SiBaWhttp://solelyinblackandwhite.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6017927177231080668.post-59340430594324460462011-10-04T09:24:15.526-04:002011-10-04T09:24:15.526-04:00SiBsW, are you sure you're Hungarian?

If you plan on taking off you "shoes" anyway wouldn't crocs be the perfect shoe for that purpose?SiBaWhttp://solelyinblackandwhite.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6017927177231080668.post-72869296195477493952011-10-03T21:13:52.840-04:002011-10-03T21:13:52.840-04:00I agree with you princess lea on the matter of cro...I agree with you princess lea on the matter of crocs being the most unaesthetic and do not provide any support nor comfort...<br />As to Yom Kippur shoes, is it such a thing as being too comfortable on YK when you're fasting all day and miserable anyways???Yedid Nefeshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05768603382212408288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6017927177231080668.post-40049269707262360152011-10-03T13:57:18.052-04:002011-10-03T13:57:18.052-04:00I didn't say one shouldn't wear Crocs beca...I didn't say one shouldn't wear Crocs because they are too comfortable. They are just the most disgustingly unflattering footwear since the dawn of time. One should be aware of the ground, and since being shoeless is for me anyway the most comfortable way to be, I kick off whatever shoe I'm wearing. <br /><br />I was sure I found some documentation before on Crocs causing hammertoe, but I can't now. Maybe to avoid getting sued I'll change that point. <br /><br />But shoes like flip-flops do cause hammertoe because they don't hold the foot securely.Princess Leahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17217157534383672867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6017927177231080668.post-92033668819199399832011-10-03T13:32:54.288-04:002011-10-03T13:32:54.288-04:00A couple years back a certain rabbi actually "...A couple years back a certain rabbi actually "banned" crocs from being worn on yom kippur b/c he said they were too comfortable.
