Other reviewers are exactly right- heavy, snappy, stiff, and oddly contoured for...I'm not sure who's feet. These look great & you buy them from past happy Croc experiences but these new Crocs should have been left behind at the development table. Love the look of them on my feet (sitting) but walking in them promises an impending threat of blisters. The Adara's were the most comfortable slide Croc they produced and they have discontinued them!!?? Why? To bring these new torture devices to light. Do your feet a favor and steer clear of these ABF flops.

I was so excited to get these shoes and when I got them I went out of town for the day and did a lot of walking, knowing I would be fine in "Crocs"....well I wasn't. My feet hurt for days after. I would NOT recommend them at all. They are too hard and uncomfortable. I also didn't feel very confident walking in them either. They are very snug on the foot and felt it like I was walking on a brick with golf balls on the bottom.

I've been wearing my Crocs Malinda flats for two years and love them, and purchase the classic Crocs thong sandal last year for walking around the neighborhood.

I thought I'd try these out since they sounded like they'd be comfortable and formed to my feet. They are dense!! Not the typical Crocs material. Because of that, they aren't nearly as flexible and therefore they make a lot of noise - they "clomp" rather than "flop". I worry that if I wear them too much, I'll damage the straps since there seems to be so much force needed to make them spring up while walking.

I've only worn them around the apartment so far. I'm concerned about stairs - I worry I'll trip since they aren't flexible. I have hardwood floors and bet that I'm irritating my downstairs neighbors with the amount of noise they make when I walk.

The one good thing about them is that they are nicely molded and do feel good when you're standing. So if you do a lot of standing but not as much walking, it could be a good fit. Or, if you've never experienced Crocs before and therefore don't know any better. Since they are much denser than ordinary Crocs, I imagine their soles & tread will last longer, but I haven't used them much since I prefer my older pair. Maybe if I'm just standing at the sink doing dishes...

Update: 4 weeks later, I finally thought I'd give 'em a try walking to my local coffee shop, about 10 blocks. As soon as I got there I knew I'd be in for a long walk back. The straps rubbed so hard on the top of both feet - I have 1 1/2 inch red scabs. I'd expect that from a cheap thong sandal, not Crocs.

Very disappointed that I spent money on these and wish I just had a new pair of their lighter sandals.

I absolutely love these shoes. I have a ton of flip flops. Even when I need to wear a dressier pair, I go to these. They fit my foot wonderfully. I wore these shoes when we moved and I made a million trips back and forth. I continued wearing them when cleaning after remodeling construction. They just feel like they were molded to your foot. I've even had a few people stop me asking what brand and where I got. They are simple and well made and I've had them for months and almost wear them every day. I got black.

I ordered these in spite of the reviews and I am regretting it. I have the longer second toe and these will definitely not fit people like me. The concept was neat with the shape and the balls on the soles, but these shoes were made for someone else's feet. I got the Croc Band flip flops, too, and those were much better on my feet and I am keeping those for sure!

So, in sum, if you have the seond toe that is longer, move on. If you do not, these might be great.

MUST HAVE A DOZEN PAIR OF CROCS, THIS PAIR OF FLIP FLOPS IS ANOTHER WINNER FROM THEM, WISH I HAD BOUGHT THEM IN BLACK AS WELL MAYBE NEXT SUMMER.

have several pairs of croc flip flops which I love. Always looking for a different pair to add to the collection since I like them so much. These are not a welcome addition. hard, inflexible, uncomfortable and uglier than a regular pair which are not stunning to begin with. do not buy.

Looking through some other reviews, I'm glad I'm not having the fit problems other people are. These are really comfortable on the bottoms of my feet. The biggest issue for me is the HUGE piece of what may as well be PVC piping you have to shove your toes between to put these on. The material is completely inflexible and also unnecessarily large to fit between your toes. I can't really wear these as much as I'd like because of how uncomfortable the toe thong is. I think I'll stick to my Skechers from now on!

I bought the ABF Flip Flop and the ABF Single Flip Flop. Due to the size descriptions of other reviewers, I bought a size 7. My tennis shoes and other Croc Flip Flops are all size 8. I have the Croc Athens, Crete, and Capri flip flops, however the size 8 in those flip flops are a little big on me. I bought the ABFs in a 7 and they fit perfect.

The ABF Single was comfortable almost immediately. It feels a little odd when you first put it on, but after walking around in them a few minutes they feel great.

The ABF flip flop is harder and less comfortable - at first. The longer I wear them the more comfortable they are getting.

Arrived quickly. They are just as described. Fit is perfect and they are very comfortable. I will be bringing them on vacation where I will be doing a lot of walking!! If you have never worn Crocs before, they do tend to be a little stiff. THey are not like other shoes you may have worn. But, they are form fitted to your foot with great arch support. They are comfortable for walking and standing for long periods. Glad I got them. Thanks!!
