They come in every colour of the rainbow! I got my yellow pair in Peacocks £5 and got one son his there too for £3 (navy). Then got my pink ones off Ebay with a navy pair for the other son, both for £10. They're fab, and the kids love them.

i want to get some off road crocs for my son but they seem to have stopped selling them in the UK.

he is not sure of the size so i would have bought 2 pairs and sent one back from a UK supplier.

has anybody returned crocs bought from the US????

from here for example ???

 

they come in black on black which he would like so that would be a bonus.. if they fit.

Just remember they are MEANT to be quite loose fitting so that you have at least 1/4" gap all around between your foot and the shoe when your foot is centred in it.

Off Road Crocs are still available in the UK!

This is just one of the companies currently showing them in stock:

http://www.dickies.bootz.co.uk

and here's more...

http://www.sweetfeetshoes.co.uk

and if ya use the code BC01 on THAT order, you'll save 10% too!

http://www.jellyegg.com

I've used both sweetfeetshoes and jellyegg and both were excellent for speedy deliveries and p&p free!

Haven't tried the dickies.boots company so can't vouch for their reliability.

Also used Backcountrygear.com in the US and while the shoes themselves were ultra ULTRA cheap with the exchange rate being what it is, I did get collared with a hefty UK customs and Excise duty when I ordered two pair of Aspens at the same time!!! No customs and Excise duty on me Niles though? Odd that one. Maybe ya only pay that if your order is over a certain amount?

But if I were you....I'd give sweetfeetshoes a go first and use the code so ya save 10%!

Just checked on another site I've used before and they still do the Off Roaders but you may need to do a pre-order for when their new stcok comes in. It's http://www.lookatmycrazyshoes.com if you're interested? I've bought my jibbitz from them when they had a sale on and got them half price

With regards to sizing I am a 7 so would I be better going for an 8-9 rather than a 6-7, alos my daughter is a 3 so would you go a size higher.

Thanks

ok if you want size 3

 

hippychick.. look again ..  i am getting out of stock in all the colours and all the sizes from jellyegg (my favourite stockists) and sweetfeet too.

i am upset because me and him both like the off roaders best. 

the only other answer is to get another type and buy some turbo straps seperately. But i like the whole style of off roaders and we know what size suits us. The adjustable straps make all the difference.

 

15

 

nb: i am a 7 and wear jellyegg offroad 7's. My husband is 10 and wears their size 10 but my son is 9 and a half and found the 10's a bit big .. but maybe he just isn't used to the idea of loose shoes...

There is virtually no stock of the nicer coloured off-roaders (black sucks) in the UK as of this post.

I have tried 17 retailers both online and high street in the last week and the only place I could find a pair of army green and orange turbo strap ones was from a lovely lady on ebay (husband didn't like them). They arrived this morning

I am sitting at my desk...with happy feet...(sad git)

And yes...they are for blokes too

Thanks

Sonja,

I only have fairly dinky feet for a bloke (size 8)...but that's still pretty strapping for a lass!  TBH I have seen the orange ones and they are pretty cool too, I have a pair of Orange Caymans...but they look better when the legs have been exposed to a little more sun...Hells Teeth, I sound like Lawrence Llewellyn Bowen.

Ah well now....ya didn't tell me what SIZE you were after did ya

But I did tell ya that Jellyegg will take pre-orders for when they come in and in my experience with them, ya don't usually have to wait toooooo long for the new stock to arrive with them.

Good luck finding a pair. I quite fancy the Off Roads too but like the chocolate and lime.......and the army green and orange........and.....pretty much allllllllll of 'em
