Somebody would have to pay me 90 to wear them things. They make flips at Wally World, get um around 12 dollars. That's all

I'd hate to be on the sauce and try to put my foot in those chacos, a few to many straps to navigate.

I like my crocs but they're slicker than owl schit when wet.

I tried on some Sperry flip flops the other day that were really really comfortable, just could not make myself spend 45 dollars on flip flops. They were not nearly as ugly as the regular shoes, but still had the same bottom for boats.

I can only guess you've never worn a pair of Chacos. I have done several 5 miles hikes here in the smokies in mine.

white boots

Get some white boots and roll the tops down half way. Wont mark, don't slip, and keep dry no matter what. When they wear out at the fold over crease, cut them off and have mocks.

sperry's-not gonna lie but ive been wearing them since i was 12 (10 yrs ago) and i noticed that once they got popular down here and a few grads older and same age went off wearing everyones wearing them now, not saying we started it but im not sayin we didnt and yes i still own a pair
croc's-not gonna lie started wearing them after a buddy of mine came down from school and i tried them on but then i figured out there better on a boat 30 miles offshore than sperry's

check out the sebagos they seem to be more comfortable than the sperry. I love my crocs but I just wish they where not so slippery when wet so I pretty much fish barefooted.

Sperry's are fratty as $#!+. Once you break them in, they are real comfortable. I don't wear them much because I pretty much only wear flip flops when I'm not at work. I wear crocs fishing because I don't care if they get muddy.

Sperry's suck.......on mine the eyelets all popped out, the damn things are hot as hell and your feet will sweat like a sob, they stink because of the sweat, and they aren't that comfortable without socks, and socks suck in the summer......

Croc's.....rule........ :D

have crocs, sperry's, and chacos, all are comfortable..... if you don't like all the straps on the ones SBE showed you, chaco also makes some "thong" style flip flops that are very comfortable......
