CROCS




These ugly step children of clogs are one of my favorite shoes. Most folks either have a pair or would like to try a pair. I got my lavender pair to wear to the pool. Nick got his to wear in the yard, but he wears them everywhere because they are so comfortable. He insisted on brown (yawn), but rumor has it that Santa may be bringing him a spiffier pair. Even though these shoes appear indestructible to me, the Crocs company offers a recycling program that speaks volumes for their social consciousness. If you turn your crocs into an authorized location, the shoes are broken down and remade into new crocs that are distributed to the needy and shoeless in Africa. Follow this link to watch their promotional video: http://www.squidoo.com/solesunited. They also sell recycled crocs and a portion of those proceeds are donated as well. These fun shoes are manufactured by a responsible company who takes their stewardship seriously. I can’t wait to buy another pair.
