I thought that their use on YK was ideal. Yes, they are comfortable, but they are so inexpensive that everybody in shul can afford them. I think that rather than ban them, they should required wearing for all. In fact, every Jew in North America who pays for a HH ticket or temple membership should have a pair included for free. Think of the benefits: They are egalitarian. They are quiet. They are easily put on (no laces means our elderly members or those with arthritis can manage!) They are chea...I mean...inexpensive. They are child-labor free. They are ideal for use at the Kotel--place them on your hand and hold them up to act as shields against rocks being tossed from above! Worn in the Philippines or Atlanta, Crocs would not be damaged by floodwaters. And finally, have you seen how much a pair of old school Converse cost these days?
