Niwot-based Crocs Inc. announced today that it has donated 100,000 pairs of shoes to Feed The Children and other organizations, which will work to distribute to those hardest hit by the recent earthquake and resulting tsunami.

I know it's an unpopular view here but I love my crocs, they are ideal for gardening. Anyway it's a great gesture and for those who were left with only what they were wearing it must be nice to be able to have a change of footwear.

I have a pair for gardening as well, and seeing as they are washable, I think that is a great practical donation.

That just proves nobody in their right mind would actually buy a pair of Crocs... they have to give them away. :evil:

Sure is nice of them.  Congratulations Croc-odiles.
