Crocs Introduces Stylish New YOU By Crocs

Filed under: Shoes

Yesterday, I went out with my husband. I got dolled up in a fancy new black dress, did my hair, and slipped on my Crocs. Yep. I spent date night out on the town wearing the same brand of shoes you find on most 3-year-olds in America -- sort of. But I don't think you'll find my version of Crocs in the sandbox any time soon.

I was wearing the Dangerous Diva shoes pictured here. They're part of a new line of footwear from Crocs called YOU by crocs. They're just as sexy and fashionable as any other date night shoe, but they really live up to the Crocs name in comfort and utility.

The footbed is leather-lined, but underneath the logo is a pad of croslitematerial -- the same stuff all the original Crocs are made of -- and the soles have a non-slip pad on the ball of the foot that kept me steady on my feet, even on wet ground with 3.5-inch heels. After a whole day on my feet in my Dangerous Diva kicks, my feet were still comfortable when I finally slipped out of the shoes at the end of the night. That's not because I'm used to heels like this, either. In fact, my standard footwear is one of three other pairs of classic Crocs (I have these in purple, these in pink and brown, and these in blue and brown) -- all flats -- so I can honestly recommend the new YOU by crocs line to anyone and everyone, even ladies who normally prefer flats.

All YOU by crocs shoes come in classic colors like black, brown, and gray, but they wouldn't be Crocs if you couldn't find a few pairs in orange, pink, and purple. Check out the gallery below for some of my favorite styles.

El Naturalista Clog

Filed under: Shoes

There is no end in sight for the ongoing popularity of Crocs, the soft, lightweight, bacteria and odor resistant, orthotic shoes that were catapulted into the spotlight over the past three years. Although comfortable, many still feel that the bright colors of the croslite PCCR material used to make Crocs are a bit over-the-top, and El Naturalista Clogs can be a good stand-in. The Spanish clogs are made of supple leather that is naturally tanned and conditioned by skilled artisans, using vegetable extracts, animal fats and sunflower oils. Olive oil gives the leather its final finish and makes the leather repel water, dust and dirt. The uppers are hand-stitched and attached to contoured, cushioned footbeds with rubber soles that will provide great grip on just about any surface. They are available in six understated colors. Price: $135.
