If we are expecting others to respect our choice, lets not go on crusades against others personal choices hmmm? | I can see your point here, it can become confusing when "crusading for fashion freedom" but the frontpage of this site says: The place where all the people in the world who like high heels can come together and share their thoughts. Whether you're a man, a woman or in between, whether you wear high heels yourself or just like the looks of them. It doesn't matter, you've come to the right place. I know that not only high heels are discussed here, also a lot of fashion freestyling and shoes in general are amongst the topics. Although crocs are VERY popular at this moment I doubt they will ever become fashionable or to be seen on the cat walks.
The whole idea why these guys set up the petition list in the first place is to show that not everyone likes them and even if they get one million names on it I am sure the importer will not stop distributing them. As long as they sell they will be available in the stores.
So look at it as a little bit of irony/joke and sign the list if you, like me, doesn't like the look of crocs. I am quite sure that after next summer they will be all forgotten anyway.
But if they make them with high heels? Then it is a completely different matter.
Enjoy your week-end folks, now I am heading to town to do some shopping for a big party tonight.
