Crocs Kid's Duet Sport Clog

We've made a discovery: often times, shoes for kids run slightly over-sized, I suppose in part to assist parents in keeping their children in that same pair of shoes for a bit longer by being big enough to accommodate at least some growth. Unfortunately, my son needs a shoe that actually fits his size 9 almost 10 foot, and we've had some difficulty finding a shoe that does just that. Other parents are absolutely right in noting that these shoes run a size large. For us, that's perfect. We tried the 10/11 version of this exact shoe in the store and it looks almost twice the size. In other Crocs, the opposite was the problem: they seemed to run small and my son's wide foot wouldn't even go into what was supposedly his size. Considering these things are made from a mold in a factory, such a difference in sizes between lines of shoes seems odd. Whatever. At any rate, the wider width and sturdy construction of these shoes is perfect for our needs. There is a pattern of nubs all over outer surface of the upper part of the Croc, which eliminates the loss of shine issue the "regular" Jibbitz version of Croc has after repeated washings. Yes, the bottom half of this chunky Croc is clunky, no doubt. But, within one wear, my son was able to adjust his gait and move in them with ease. I am confident of their support and durability, and as with all Crocs, they're easy to clean with soap and water and can be worn poolside. As a parent with a toddler, what more can you ask for in a shoe?

LOVE these Crocs! My 2 year old twins wore them the end of summer into winter and loved them! Hoping to still get this summer out of them and they had no problems walking in them at all. I am buying a new pair for my 7 year old this spring. My 7 year old has been wearing Crocs since he was 1 every summer and by far these are the nicest! Love them.

Great looking pair of Crocs. My kid loves them and wears them everywhere. Note of advice: the sizes run huge. My kid wears size 1 for all other kinds of shoes, but the size 1 of this kind were enormous. I had to exchange them for the 13 child size, and those were the right fit (thanks to Zappos incredibly easy exchange policy).

Love these. I use them as house slippers because they are very wide and I can fit my heavy wool socks in them comfortably. My feet are narrow so without thick socks they are a bit floppy.
