As global warming sets in, we'll all be needing to wear more waterproof shoes.
I got a pair last year because my two boys pestered me to getting them crocs; so when I tried their's and saw that they seemed to address certain niche functionality and were cheap, I got a pair. They are light, comfortable, and waterproof so they work well for water sports where you don't need athletic support. If I get sloppy in the kitchen and splatter myself, the floor and my cooking assistant ...hey, you can take a shower with crocs on your feet.
Be careful where you walk = I think statistics support this experience: my boy stepped on a rusty nail while wearing his crocs and of course the nail went through the "shoe" like butter since they are such soft rubber, so he discovered that the tetanus shot and cleaning were a lot worse than the original injury.
