:mickey: Okay, I need feedback from people who have worn both kinds of Crocs -- the Disney ones, and the regular ones. I've never bought any, mostly b/c they are too wide for my feet and are extremely loose b/c of that. But I've heard the Disney ones are narrower, and just wondered if anyone has found that to be true. I'm not sure I like the adult colors offered on the Disney ones, either - the kid's colors are nicer. But -- hard to resist that Mickey silhouette!! So -- who likes which kind better??

Also -- for those of you who put Jibbits or the like in your Crocs -- does the underpiece bother the top of your foot at all?? Just wondering...

Thanks so much everyone!! :thanks:

I wear all sorts of Crocs, as I'm a nurse and wear the ones w/o holes to work.

I honestly do not see a difference in the sizes. I have a SUPER narrow foot, and I can't find tennis shoes hardly to wear walking because of it. I have found it no problem to wear these shoes, in fact, they are the most comfortable shoes I've ever owned. Which is why I own about 6 pairs of them!

I do not own the decorations, but have heard that they do not work on the Disney ones. I have the pink Mickey Crocs... hehe

I have both the Disney and regular Crocs. My Disney ones are a W 8 - 9 and the regular ones are a W 8. They seem to run big and are meant to fit loose - your foot is not really supposed to touch the inside of the shoe. The Disney Crocs are the Beach style - supposed to be a little wider. My regular ones are Cayman style - supposed to be a little narrower. I really can't tell the difference. In fact, I think the Disney ones fit a little better (maybe because they're cuter???). I have only 1 Jibbitz so far because my order hasn't arrived yet :mad:. They tend to spin around in the holes of the regular Crocs but I fixed this by wrapping a narrow strip of tape multiple times around the stem of the Jibbitz and it no longer moves. I currently have on my Mickey ones and I put the Jibbitz in there tonight. It is still somewhat loose even with the tape and I think I could still easily lose it. I have to devise some other way to keep it in - a friend suggested Superglue but you wouldn't be able to remove it later. You cannot feel the Jibbitz as the back is flat against the top of the shoe. I know many others think these shoes are ugly but once I tried them, I was a quick convert - I love them! BTW, I heard (but have not tried) that you can "shrink" them by putting them in a dryer on low heat for a minute or so. You would have to be careful as I suspect too much heat would melt them!

I've gone on and on about how unimpressed I am with my regular Crocs, and my unknowing hubby, in a sweet gesture, went out and bought me some Disney ones. They are the black and red ones. They were too big, so I ended up getting a child's size that fits my feet much better. I actually like them better since they fit more snugly. I don't think they are any narrower than the regular Crocs though.

I don't have problems with my Jibbitz moving around in my regular ones. They don't bother me at all.

Thanks for the info! What size shoe do you wear normally? I'd love to be able to fit into a child's size, but I normally wear a 8 1/2 to 9 in regular shoes, and I'm doubting that converts to a child's size. I just love their colors better...

Thanks everyone else for all the input, too... I may just have to try a pair of each -- that way, I won't wear out my Disney ones too much!! :D

I wear a size 7. I'm looking at my Disney ones now, and maybe it's not a child's size. It says M 3, W 5. They fit my foot just right though. :shrug:

From previous threads, they are everywhere at WDW. I haven't seen for myself as they didn't start selling them there until about a week after my Dec trip ended.

shoebuy.com has the disney crocs and they are always having sales. I just picked up two pairs for $22.95 and that was with tax, they don't charge shipping, if you don't want to wait to get to Disney.

If you use the link to Naughtycodes.com or Currentcodes.com, you can get an extra 15% off your order to Dicks Sporting Goods. I believe that today is the last day tho'. Sign up for the Google Check Out (sort of like Paypal) and get an extra $10 off. I got my Disney Crocs for under $20.
