I see you're in Michigan.... is there a Foley's or any May store around? (Lord & Taylor, Hecht's, Meier & Frank, Famous-Barr, The Jones Store, Robinsons-May, Filene's, Kaufmann's, Strawbridges, Foley's, and L.S. Ayres are all the May stores) We have Kaufmann's here, and I know they sell them.... I believe my store has both styles....

I would get the ones with the vents...my feet don't really feel hot in the Highlands, but they sure are sweaty when I take them off...however, they are the most comfortable shoes I've ever had...just wish they came in a true white rather than just the pearl.

I went to www.crocs.com. Just got mine in the mail today. Haven't had a chance to wear them yet. They weigh almost nothing! I plan on wearing them my next work day but bring along the old stand-by birkenstocks just in case they end up killing my feet.

The crocs website has 'store near you' links. I paid just under $50, shipping included. Initially, they were put on back order. Took about 3 weeks to get here.

okay so I have been so excited to try out these new crocs. I ordered a pair and had to send them back because they were too small, now the ones I ordered are on back order until June! Yikes, so I would suggest NOT ordering them online if there is a store close by. There is a mad demand for these shoes!

sorry to hear that, so they do not run true to size??? I normally wear a nine. Should I order a 10??? The reason I am asking all these questions is that I have to order them on line...there are no shops near me that carry them.

Thanks
