"Go on an adventure?" Who the fuck is adventuring in crocs?

[–] Maven@lemmy.zip 40 points 6 months ago (2 children)

The strap you can move around on the croc is commonly called the "adventure strap". The title was referencing that.

that's the least useful knowledge i have acquired in a while

Man, Crocs are truly the ugliest footware in existence.

[–] Riven@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Agreed but also aparrently they're extremely comfortable. I went to see if they had any thong type slippers but found non I liked, they're all God awful.

[–] Damage@feddit.it 5 points 6 months ago (1 children)

They're also rubber, with my level of body heat there's no way they'd be comfortable

[–] vala@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Crocs are not made of rubber. It's a proprietary material not it's not rubber.

[–] PerogiBoi@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Croslite is a proprietary form of EVA foam with some additives

[–] vala@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

That explains why I always shock myself when I wear them.

[–] Maven@lemmy.zip 12 points 6 months ago

Glad I could help!

Ditto. I feel like the "croc community" would be a gold mine of useless information, actually.

[–] Empricorn@feddit.nl 5 points 6 months ago

I don't believe you.

[–] lugal@lemmy.ml 13 points 6 months ago

Everything is an adventure in crocs

[–] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 15 points 6 months ago (1 children)

The chains to the shoes is a smart idea. Keeps them from getting lost in the mosh pit

[–] SidewaysHighways@lemmy.world 10 points 6 months ago

That would be the comfiest mosh

[–] Rocketpoweredgorilla@lemmy.ca 15 points 6 months ago (2 children)

Wouldn't you have to walk like you shit yourself to avoid scratching the hell out of your ankles with those?

[–] FruitLips@lemmy.ml 4 points 6 months ago

Not when I'm their loyal/jacked steed.

[–] MrJameGumb@lemmy.world 6 points 6 months ago (1 children)

This seems like the most un-punk thing I've ever seen somehow lol

[–] Xaphanos@lemmy.world 35 points 6 months ago (2 children)

Punk is all about not giving a fuck what anyone else thinks. Even other punks. I respect this punk.

[–] CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Every subculture that says that is full of shit, no exception. If you're really not conforming you don't have a subculture, you're just one crazy person wearing ziplock bags and carrying a banana for no reason.

[–] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 1 points 6 months ago

If this were true, punks would have a very different attire... I respect the sentiment here, though.

[–] PyroNeurosis@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 6 months ago (2 children)

Wht did he hike the one pant leg?

[–] Omgpwnies@lemmy.world 13 points 6 months ago

With the chain attached, I am imagining he is desperately trying to keep it from hiking itself up further

[–] VulKendov@reddthat.com 4 points 6 months ago

It's called punk rock, you wouldn't understand.

[–] Illogicalbit@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

… for pretzels.

[–] don@lemm.ee 3 points 6 months ago

They flipped those bad mamma jammas into combat mode

[–] ScrambledLogic@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 months ago

Hmm, Punk Crocs...

[–] blandfordforever@lemm.ee 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I would be stabbing myself in the feet and legs all the time with those.

[–] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 1 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

That's the correct response to giving up on life, and wearing crocs.
