Men's Santa Cruz Loafers

I don't consider myself a creature of habit - I like to try new things, and look for variety in my purchases. Except when it comes to these loafers. I'm now on my fourth pair of these Crocs since buying my first pair in 2013, and I love them. I use them primarily around the house, but will wear them out and about some as well. I typically fold the heel fabric down and use these like clogs where I can just easily slip my feet into them. On average, these seem to last me about three to four years, often wearing them at least 3-4 times a week if not every day. They are comfortable and adjust to form-fit to the soles of your feet over time, providing a pretty good level of arch support. Once you get past the first day or two with them, the soles of the shoes get scuffed up enough to prevent slipping, and the fabric holds up to stains and spills pretty easily. They can be thrown in the washing machine, although I've never put mine in the dryer. Typically, I realize that it's time to replace them when the soles have almost worn smooth, when the stains start to be more noticeable, and when my toes start to wear holes in the fabric. I'm wearing this new pair now, about a month after I bought them, and they have broken in perfectly, and are extremely comfortable.

I’ve never worn Crocs in my life. Don’t care for the plastic look and feel. And I’ll never own one of those, however this Crocs is something altogether different. Great looking, rugged heavy canvas uppers are very breathable and durable. The removable insoles are classic Crocs footbeds so they have the classic rubbery feel with the knobs. I ordered these because I knew the footbeds were removable so I could take them out and put my footbeds in. My footbeds fit perfect. Either way, for people who like Crocs footbeds or for someone who uses a custom or over the counter insole these are super comfortable. I originally ordered them to replace slippers/house shoes I’d worn out and loved. It was a good decision. These are better. They do have a thicker rubber/polyurethane sole than a typical house shoe but that wasn’t a concern as I walk a fairly long distance to our mailbox and occasionally step on gravel. My problem with this Crocs Santa Cruz slip-on is I wear them more often than I thought I would. But is that a problem? Lol. In fact I’m going to get another pair soon. FIT: So as far as fit goes, I wear a size 14 med in almost everything. I ordered a 14 M and they fit exactly as I hoped they’d fit. They have a little wider toe box without being obnoxiously wide. They have plenty of side to side room for toes and plenty of length. I would say the fit is nearly spot on. At least in the size 14. The width is good. It’s not a walking shoe or running shoe so you can’t snug it up and go for a run. I have walked a quarter mile one morning (without socks I might ad) and they did fine. BTW, these can be worn with or without socks. I wear them without socks. So, fit is good. Comfort is much better than I expected. They breathe well. They’re lightweight. The price is good for what you get making them, in my opinion, a great value. Highly recommended. If you like them get an extra pair because who knows how long Crocs will make them! Enjoy!

I’ve had these for over 1/2 a year and I love them. Looks good and provides great support for my feet. Would buy again.

These are a favorite of my dad. I buy them for him yearly for his birthday- he loves them! comfortable, easy to put on and good solid foundation for no-slipping.

1/29/2015 UPDATE: You can see my original review below. I seriously love(d) this loafer. So comfy, so light. I am happy too that they became more than just "seasonal." I wear them year-around (I just wear thicker socks in the winter). But I have to say that after only one year of use (summer to summer 2013-2014), they have worn/aged incredibly fast. What little tread was there to begin with is completely gone. They are now SO slippery in wet conditions as there is zero traction. I can deal with that. I understand shoes wear. But the material of these soles wear far more quickly than a regular shoe! Traction aside, what bothers me the most are the holes! After only 6 months of wearing, both shoes developed a hole right where my big toe resides. Yes, I clip my nails. Yes, the shoes fit (they aren't too small), but apparently the constant rubbing in just that location has created 2 holes. On one hand, the holes maintain the rustic/rugged style with the frayed edging. On the other hand, it looks completely ghetto...especially if you wear white socks! So again, while I love this shoe...I expected greater longevity at this price point! :/ ORIGINAL REVIEW I have owned the Crocs Athens (original) thong sandal for 4 years. I wear them essentially every day of spring, fall, and summer. This past summer, they finally gave up on me as the thong broke (although I successfully glued it back together, it just doesn't have the same strength). The reviews of the Dual Athens were not good, so I was going to get the original Athens again to replace my old ones. However when I came across the reviews of the Santa Cruz, my attention was piqued. Although they cost more than the sandals, I went out on a limb (or so I thought) and purchased a shoe that I had never even tried on. Some notes: First thing, it fit perfectly. My old Croc sandals were a size 10, so I bought these in size 10. Same, perfect fit! I was very pleased that the sizing didn't change in 4 years. Secondly, the sole in the Santa Cruz (which is removable) felt like the exact same sole of my old Athen's sandal. Extremely lightweight, and as comfortable as I'll be! It was as though I bought a slip on version of my old thong sandal! Third, These shoes are lightweight. I can't even begin to describe (without sounding overly-dramatic) how light these are! You don't feel like you are lugging around anything heavy on your feet wearing these. Super lightweight, super comfortable. Fourth, I was skeptical about their breathability, but pleasantly pleased. While wearing them on a hot summer day in the Midwest, my feet DO sweat....but my feet don't slide around uncontrollably in the shoe. I think this has to do because of the snug, perfect fit for my feet...that there isn't room for my foot to slip and slide around. The nice thing is, while my foot does sweat, it only seems to be on the bottom of my foot where it makes contact with the inner sole. The sweat does not seem to bleed over to the fabric material and is not absorbed by the fabric in any way....which obviously I'm very pleased by. Some people made negative comments about the fraying...it's intentional. It's the style. It's supposed to be like that. It's not the type of fraying that if you pull the end...your shoe will gradually "unwind." I like the rugged character it adds. I've worn them every day for a week straight and have yet to find a genuine complaint about these shoes. If they last as long as my other Crocs, I will be a happy man. If something comes up, I'll be sure to update this review...but after a hard weeks wear, my initial review couldn't be any more positive!!

fits well according to size. Comfortable footbed. Lightweight

You van never go wrong with Crocs! Mine were a tad tight to begin with, but with a few squints of water, the canvas relaxed and they fit perfectly! Crocs have little nubs on the sole that seemingly massage your feet as you walk! Bought them for vacation but instantly became my everyday shoes because ... I'm retired!!! Love 'em. You will too. True to size!!!

Ordered to replace a gray pair that I had wore a hole in. The old ones have became my favorite shoes. Super comfortable and good support. I love these because of the rubber insole that supports your feet well vs loafers that have a foam insole and seem to go flat. These are comfortable when broken in.

Ce produit est arrivé en avance par rapport à la date estimé. Il correspond en tout point aux photos et me conviens parfaitement. Je recommande

Item as advertised, excellent product, brilliant delivery, highly recommended seller, AAA+

very comfortable

Muy cómodo y a pesar que la suela es de plástico los 👣 no sudan

カーキ色の方を購入した所、素材感、サイズ感、使用感ともコストパフォーマンス良好の為、数日後に此方の色違いを購入した次第。 サイズ感は何方かのレビューにもあるが、いつもの0.5〜1.0cm大きめにするとびったりになる印象。 中敷きは外せて、衛生保持にも◎ その中敷きとソール以外は殆どコットン使用。 蒸れ感が低減され、真夏は快適度アップ。
