LOL, this thread entertains me. There are a couple of guys here who have them as shower shoes. Before I came here I mostly saw them on college students and children. The "original" model of crocs that most people think about are ugly as hell, but they have a few styles that aren't quite as atrocious. I would never wear the "cayman" style though (original)... even as a shower shoe.
As for the foot stink, dont blame the crocs. The material they are made out of has anti-microbial properties and prevents (as best it can) stinkfoot. Some people just have nasty feet though.
Apparently there is a croc boot now. I wonder if it'd be good for snowbound adventures. Strange... Oh and my vote for ugliest corc? The "islander":
