Thanks--both of you.....

I just looked at both sites. Checked out many of the styles.

Merrell---
"Jungle Mocs" and the ""Dassie Slide" seem OK--
BUT--these shoes do not look like they would be easy slide on or off.
A bit too clunky as well--

Shoebuy--
I liked the Klogs "Naples" style.
Their sizing help was nice--as they noted that these Klogs run a size larger than normal.
I wear a size 310 shoe--so they suggested size 9W for me. Crazy colors!

The "Jollys slip on Clog" @ $59.95 seemed the best price. A real gardening shoe..
Wide toe area (yeah!)etc...

If you know any other good sites for shoes, please list them here...


I already have a "Sloggers" shoe I bought for watering several years ago.
My main concern is the comfort inside the shoe--as I have all these foot problems.
All day running around HD--my feet hurt so bad I do not want to take another step.

Buying on-line is iffy--as I do not get to try the shoes on. Aina has passed on
about 3 pairs of shoes to me that she bought on line and did not like the way hey fit.

I may have to go sleuthing....We have DSW here----a huge shoe store at the Mall here--
a bunch of sporting goods stores...etc.
What type of a shoe store would carry these kind of shoes?

Thanks all--Gita

Here are my "Sloggers". I bought these on-line about 6 years ago.
They are, totally, molded plastic. I have to switch shoes on and off when I water--
kind of annoying...But--I can walk through puddles with these and stay dry.
I can only wear these with one pair of socks. My tennis shoes--I need 2 pair of socks.
So--I have to switch socks AND shoes...I just deal with it...

I suppose in the "Perfect Life"--I would have a pair of shoes that do both--and I
could wear them all day.
