WELL??????
An unfortunate 9-year-old on the A train home last night was wearing shoes exactly like these, much to my horror.
And although my opinion of them may have been tainted by having spent almost an hour conversing with a "pretentious" asshole (see previous entry), I was still amazed at the sheer audacity of the shoemaker, combining two historically maligned shoes into one unholy marriage of ridiculously sweaty feet and outrageously bad fashion.
Even if we say, for argument's sake, that jelly shoes are retro, and Crocs are comfortable, and 9-year-old's don't typically have much say in what they do (or wear), we have to consider that some adult somehow related to this girl walked into a shoe store, picked up these shoes, and thought, "Hmm, this is a just punishment for a young girl who ruined my carefree lifestyle with her very existence. She is my cross to bear, and these Jrocs - Crelly Clogs - shall be hers."
BUT SERIOUSLY.
What do you even call these???
