Hi Mic >>>I have 5 original pairs (red, orange, bright blue, purple and yellow), and one pair of knockoffs (pink). The KOs are ok, but no, not as good.
I have a pair of Crocs I bought in Hawaii about 4 years ago - at that time people just thought they were ugly - but I thought they were comfortable and so light. I have since acquired several new pairs and noticed that the first pair I bought - at that time they were made in Canada for an American company - are softer than the newer ones that are made in China. While most of the KO's I have tried are not as comfortable the exception I found were "Dawgs" that I gave away to someone in Germany because I thought I could easily get more - they have memory foam in them and are actually more comfortable than Crocs - the store that sold them have since closed so I have to go on the internet. In South Africa they have become very popular over the past year and come in even more colors than I have seen here. It is an interesting company because they originally made boots - like wellies - that were for chicken farmers because they are light and can be washed in the machine and I saw a pair in South Africa (have never seen them here).
