These crocodiles are amazing! My 3 1/2 year old loves them. He put them on and immediately ran around the apartment making lots of noise from the engine revs! I'd like to know how much he REALLY feels like Lightning McQueen. It's something we'll never know, but it's SO worth seeing him so excited. I'm crying about how much I'm going to spend over the next few decades lol. Let's get to the shoes! Pros: 1. Must have an adjustable strap. Wow. A pair of Lightning McQueen Crocs are not only the perfect choice for my boy, they will grow with him and save mom and dad a few shekels! There are 3 different sizes you can create. As you can see in the photo, pull the strap out of the first button, move the strap to the second button and press it. It's a little tiring to get off, but considering how tiring our little ones will be walking around in it, I'm glad the harness is so stiff. It takes a little MORE effort and effort to get the strap back into the new hole, but once you do you KNOW it won't come loose. Our son is a size 9, we bought him a size 10 knowing it had an adjustable strap. I found moving just ONE side of the strap was the perfect size. You can adjust the strap forward on BOTH sides and I'm sure it will fit a size 8 (or two sizes down from the size you bought). Even if you use both holes and are effectively two sizes smaller than the size you bought, I don't think there will be too many "empty" shoes in the back getting in the way of running, jumping etc (of course not) . . we have too many shoes). I wondered if moving in one direction like us would feel uneven on his leg, but not in the slightest. Phew, that's a long first PRO! 2. Graphics. You look REALLY good. Very clean and clear lines. Nothing cloudy or runny. The quality is accurate.3. comfort. Crocs simply radiate comfort. This is a matter of course. We were very pleasantly surprised by these crocodiles in the comfort department. Most Crocs have the standard Crocs Soft matte finish. I was hoping that the gloss paint on the graphics and upper paneling wouldn't make the shoe stiffer than other Crocs and wouldn't blister easily. THIS IS NOT! We gave them to him the night before Disneyland, so he only wore them for a few minutes that night. We brought shoes just in case but he wore them ALL to Disneyland the next day and never mentioned they hurt his feet. Unfortunately, when we returned to the car and removed the crocodiles, he was left with two bloody stumps instead of legs. But they look great! But he's a tough guy. lol J/K There are also vents on the front and sides to reduce sweaty feet and allow air to circulate. Durability. I can't say exactly how durable they will be just yet, but these are real Crocs and they certainly have weight. However, I can say with certainty that we have bought several different fake crocodiles for less than half the price of this one, but they don't last long. Either they wear out too quickly, or the strap snaps, or an EYEBALL falls off the alligator's face. CONS: 1st prize. A definite argument here is that your child's feet are growing fast and you shouldn't buy actual Crocs. I agree to a certain extent. Right now, these Crocs are on sale for $35, and they're $40 at Disneyland, which is a pretty steep price. I was able to get the last pair of this size 10 for $23 but I would pay $35 for two reasons. My son's smile but more importantly the adjustable strap! It's like buying THREE pairs of Lightning McQueen! Assuming they hold up over time I would DEFINITELY pay $12 for a pair of 8, 9 and 10's. If they sold for $19.99 I think there would be MORE little Lightning McQueen races and the CEO of Crocs would STILL be able to afford his 9th yacht so I'm deducting a star. Four stars. Overall we LOVE these shoes. Will they release a new pair of "Cars" Crocs for each character? Here comes the college fund. Hope that was helpful! Thank you for reading!
