The offer ZERO ankle support and often don't fit snuggly enough to support anything really. Unless you wear flip flops, don't wear these. Easy way to end up with constant foot, ankle, and knee problems.
Human ankles aren't made from glass.
Regular shoes are going to give you bunions in the long run.
There's a reason hiking and activity shoes have ankle support. Ankles aren't glass, but you don't want to roll them in uneven surfaces
Who the hell would want to wear crocs for hiking?
They’re actually pretty popular with hikers. They’re lightweight and comfortable, and also non-absorbent.
Not for the actual hiking part, but they’re great to throw in your backpack and wear around camp at the end of the day, and if they get wet they aren’t going to get heavy so you can wear them instead of your boots if you have to wade across a creek.
The reason hiking shoes have ankle support is because most people already have glass ankles. If you let your ankles strengthen without them then rolling your ankles doesn't equal injury. I went on a long hike just last weekend and rolled my ankles pretty hard on two occations without any pain or injury.
Also lots of "activity" shoes don't have ankle support. See: most basketball shoes, trail/ultra running shoes, football cleats. All shoes that are pretty optimized for performance in sports that have high ankle impact, most are low top.
https://www.runnersworld.com/uk/news/a36406163/5000m-wearing-crocs/ I am not saying this is a good idea. Just thought it was apropos.
I’d still rather wear slippers lol, you can actually get some decent pairs that are comfy and look less ridiculous than Crocs
Exactly, people are wearing clogs in place of sandals insisting that the ancients were wrong.
The ancients made clogs out of wood, my dude.
The ancients were wrong about a LOT of things.
This is how you get cursed.
