13. They caught Reggie?!? I didn't know!
By the way, what in the hell possessed them to name an alligator Reggie? Alligators are supposed to have names like Thor, Bruno, Brutus, scary names. Reggie? They might as well have named him Tommy or Bob.

14. Yeah, the name Reggie just does not strike fear into me
Hell, I would be more afraid of a guy named Melvin.

9. Are they as soft as the originals?
I love my Crocs--been wearing the Crocs flip flops since March.

:hi:

10. They are!
I don't own any originals, but I have tried them on. I got these at a store with a bullseye theme.

11. Can't buy 'em. Even the name brand Crocs are made in China.
I took the pledge. www.boycottmadeinchina.org

I'm such a damn purist.

15. Mine's made out of the USA
and I own like 2, and my wife owns like 5. We always make sure our Crocs are USA made (since they are in Boulder, CO - I'd kick their asses for production in both Mexico and China)

16. Both of my pairs of Crocs were made in the original plant in Canada.
I thought that was their only factory?

17. Fifty-percent of Crocs are made in China.
I would expect that number to rise, if they follow the practice of other manufacturers. And since it's hard to know which are made where with certainty, I'll stick with American-made shoes.

19. To me, Crocs are just plain ugly...
and look like something you should wear to the pool or beach.

29. Yeah...I can see the use there
but I've seen both men and women wear them out in public- at malls, school, etc.

Polo shirt, jeans, and crocs... just not a good match in my opinon :P

24. Actually not a copycat at all
Just an insane and inane rambling of your very own KitchenWitch.

28. They are doing okay.
I got a little neglectful when I was sick so my dill and my fennel died.
