M any of the kids in my neighborhood wear uniforms to school. During the summer, they wear a uniform of a different sort - shorts, T-shirts and Crocs.

Crocs are flexible foam shoes often sold in bright colors. The plastic clogs are riddled with air holes. Wearers praise these quirky kicks for their comfort and convenience. Crocs slip on and off quickly, clean up easily and don't absorb foot odor.

Another equally vocal contingent despises the shoes for their fashion. A Facebook group called, "I don't care how comfortable Crocs are, you look like a dumbass" has 1.5 million members.

"They are the most visually insulting footwear of all time," writes one Facebook fan.

My 2- and 3-year-old sons don't have Facebook pages. They don't have much fashion sense either - just like the old man. In fact, Bubba's and Peter's idea of red-carpet fashion is Star Wars pajamas and Spider-Man underwear.

My boys love Crocs because most of their friends have them. And while my younger son sometimes struggles to use a fork, even he can take his Crocs on and off by himself. Their feet don't sweat in Crocs. And the shoes are perfect for playing in puddles or in the sandbox.
