I bought these shoes last week, I had seen many people wearing them, including my sister-in-law and I had tried hers on many times - I loved them so much I just had to buy some - they make you feel like you are walking on that spongy stuff you find in children's play areas!

Ideal for gardening because they are like the jelly shoes that you could buy years ago (although slightly more trendy!). At this time of year we don't want to be wearing our wellies, it is too warm and they make your feet sweat - these shoes are ideal for that, you can wash your shoes and your feet after you have got yourself covered in earth, horse poo (as in my case) etc and the shoes dry off really quickly. I am going to be investing in a few more pairs of these yet but in different colours Smiley

Anyone else wearing these in their garden?

They look great, I am going to have to get myself a pair of those! At the moment I wear flip-flops for walking around the garden, which i don't like really because of the insects, snakes,scorpions etc!

I bought a pair yesterday!!

Yes they are so comfy, I don't want to take them off!! I would even wear them to the shops, but my son wouldn't go with me unless I took them off!!!

I am even going to buy my husband a pair for mooching about the house! Wink

I also love these for the garden, and would have bought 'Crocs', but they were too damn expensive!!!

So, these are the little 'Beauties' I found on Fuengirola market for 5 euros!!!! I just love the girlie pink with the flowers.

I found the little adornments at La Cala, and think you other girls should get some too!!!!!

I have to say, they were extremely useful when I put the garden fork through the water pipe and had to wade ankle deep in muddy sludge!!!  A quick rinse off with the hose and they were as good as new!!

I agree with you all, they're just great for the garden! Fortunately they're also made in boring colours for men, I wanted the brown but had to settle for the welly-green in my size. I like the way you can wear them with the strap forward to make them easier to slip on and off, or behind the heel for extra security.

Hola Alec

I bought some of these for Chris in green and he uses them for around the house and the garden, what a wonderful development, the only bad thing I have to say about them is they are very soft so sometimes I find that I stand on a twig and it goes straight through the show and hurts, however, they are plastic so what can I expect Smiley

I am always in mine and I think we should develop a sticker for our shoes of the forum, how cool would that be?

I have already started looking into t-shirts, caps, keyrings and mugs, make it more fun Smiley
