Gallery: Celebs caught wearing crocs!
This is so incredibly wrong. We don't mean to offend anyone's fashion sensibilities, but we're pretty sure that the fact that Crocs now makes heels -- and that people are actually buying them -- is an event that means the apocalypse is close at hand.

Crocs, the rubber shoemaker that seems to have both captured a nation and reviled fashion lovers everywhere, has severely cut its first quarter estimates. Not only are revenue predictions down $25 - $30 million, earnings per share have gone from a 46 cent a share profit to either break-even or a 5-cent per share loss. Ouch! The company is also closing its Canadian manufacturing operation. Gallery: Crocs: Would you want your Olympic team wearing these?
Just when I thought I had heard it all this week, I stumbled upon this little jewel:
We've tried, on a number of occasions, to persuade you that, whatever you do, you should avoid the dreaded Crocs at all cost. They're funny looking. And nobody who sees you wearing them thinks you're "fun" or "funky" -- I promise.
The most common excuse I hear for wearing atrocities like tracksuits and terribly ill-fitting pants (please see the picture to the right) is "But it's so comfy!" Um, okay. I didn't know comfort was a reason to show up to the supermarket like a velour nightmare. How many times have you stumbled out of bed, gone to the nearby Starbucks with the intention to be in and out within ten minutes, only to bump into a friend (I won't mention if they're super attractive or not) and be immediately consumed with hot embarrassment because you look like you, well, stumbled out of bed? And if that hasn't happened yet, it will, my friend. It will. Looking somewhat decent doesn't take that much work, actually. No one should have to get glammed up to go for a morning coffee run, but no one should be able to confuse you for a homeless person either. Here are some helpful hints on how to not look like a slob without sacrificing your morning.Gallery: Better Comfortable Choices

Love them or hate them, these are the ugliest shoes on the block. If you own any of these (I have to say I do own one pair on the list) it's not you that is ugly. It's your footwear. So without further ado, I present you with "The Not So Good, the Bad, and the Uggs."

As I've discussed, time and time again, Crocs are one of the 21st century's great fashion tragedies. They're unattractive, annoying, and simply refuse to go away. Wretch! 
Just when you thought you'd finally seen the worst of those little plastic disasters, we learn that the makers of Crocs have stooped to a new low. Soon your fashion-challenged friends can have entire wardrobes full of brightly-colored goo, as the company has revealed they'll be launching a line of "plastic-inspired" clothing.
Gross.
Apparently, they figured out how to take the same ugly-ass material that's in the shoes and spin it into yarn, making it possible to design foam resin shirts, skirts and shorts.
Please, Croc people, I'm begging you -- show some restraint! Have a little foresight -- think of how we'll be judged by future generations. Spare the world from this hideous idea!
Even though every sane person on the face of the planet has come to the conclusion that Crocs are an attack on mankind (probably perpetuated by some weird breed of human-hating aliens, hell-bent on making the world unattractive before taking it over), the silly rubber shoes just won't seem to die.
This is a truly a sad day for Jack Nicholson fans around the world. The once-revered celebrity -- a quintessential "man's man" and master of his craft -- has succumbed to the Crocs. "Crocs make me wanna be a better man." --As Good As It Gets
The only croc I can fully accept at Disney is Captain Hook's nemesis. I can barely tolerate the normal-colored Crocs on the feet of tourists. Imagine my horror when I went to Disney World this last Saturday and found the entire place invaded by Crocs... and not just normal-ugly Crocs, but special-ugly Crocs. 
Love him or hate him, there's one thing we can all agree on when it comes to President Bush: he is not a fashionable man. So, now that the commander-in-chief has been caught wearing Crocs, can we officially declare these sandals as the ugliest pieces of footwear on the planet?
What's odd, is that it's not like Mr. Bush just ran out of the house without thinking about what he was wearing. The hat, shorts, socks and shirts all match -- perfectly. I think they're even the same shades of gray and black. So why, with all that forethought and preparation, would a person ever choose such hideous shoes?
According to Manolo -- the Internet's foremost shoe blogger -- this is grounds for impeachment. I'm not saying I agree, but -- given this egregious fashion faux pas -- it should certainly be taken under consideration.
Think that's weird? Check out the rest of our posts about Crocs, and how Crocs are taking it to the next level.
On our sister site Blogging Stocks, Valerie Russo reported that the Crocs company will launch a new version of their best-selling plastic clogs this fall. Dubbed "You by Crocs", the made-over footwear promises to have all of the cushy comfort of the originals without any of the ugliness.
