Crocs Concept Store

If you are a bit of a saddo like me, you probably own a pair of Crocs, those hideous plastic things that really only children should wear. However, I do wear them and I own more than one pair, so there. My excuse is that I use them for boating as they are grippy but also float when they fall of the boat (or when Mrs L throws them in for crimes against fashion).
There are loads of places in HK to buy Crocs, but I’ll point you in the direction of Causeway Bay, as there are about 5 stores in the Sogo area, including in Sogo itself.
I find shopping for Crocs quite a simple affair, as they only have one style that are suitable for guys, and that is the original plastic thing. Sure, there are the ones with plastic soles and cloth tops, like slip-​on deck shoes, but if you want some like this, I suggest you buy some Merrells like every other normal guy. For the ladies, there are many more varieties, and to be fair, they are a lot better than the offerings for guys. Mrs L owns a pair that are neither a garish colour, nor full of holes. They look like a nice pair of ladies shoes, albeit plastic and floaty.
The stores are small, with racks of shoes on all walls, it can get a but busy, especially with all the mainlanders bum-​rushing the staff for attention. My advice, is get in and get out — fast and before anyone sees you.
Another piece of advice, try on every pair you buy. I fell into this trap of buying two identical pairs, but in different colours. I tried one size and it was fine, so the assumption was that the other would be fine. Oh no, too small, and had cut off all the tags before noticing. Exactly the same pair and size, but in fact not the same size — grrrr!
And before anyone asks why I was buying two pairs (did I want to be double saddo?), there is a discount after HKD500, and entry into the «Croc Club» which gives you more promotions in the future. Check me out, so classy!
