"Go on an adventure?" Who the fuck is adventuring in crocs?

The strap you can move around on the croc is commonly called the "adventure strap". The title was referencing that.

Man, Crocs are truly the ugliest footware in existence.

Agreed but also aparrently they're extremely comfortable. I went to see if they had any thong type slippers but found non I liked, they're all God awful.

They're also rubber, with my level of body heat there's no way they'd be comfortable

Crocs are not made of rubber. It's a proprietary material not it's not rubber.

Croslite is a proprietary form of EVA foam with some additives

That explains why I always shock myself when I wear them.

Fun fact: Mike Judge featured characters wearing Crocs in Idiocracy, when the shoes were still pretty new and unheard of for that very reason. He said something like "only idiots would choose to wear these ugly things. They're never gonna take off."

Glad I could help!

Ditto. I feel like the "croc community" would be a gold mine of useless information, actually.

I don't believe you.

Everything is an adventure in crocs
