Customer Reviews Crocs Bistro (Unisex)

I have wide feet. Although these Crocs were advertised as a wide width and did have plenty of toe room, they were difficult to get on and tight across the top of my foot. Ive worn Crocs for years as a nurse and for gardening. Lately, the comfortable wide Crocs are hard to find.

I'm a chef and I work on my feet 12 hours a day. I've tried hundreds of work shoes over the years, but by the end of the day I can barely walk. (Epsom salt foot soak + menthol lotion on my feet + rest usually does the trick.) I tried Crocs Bistro hoping they would alleviate some of the pain. A few things really bothered me about these shoes: 1. The top of the arch on this shoe was really tight. At first, I ordered a women's 8.5, but I exchanged them for a women's 9. They were still tight. It was hard to move my feet when I walked, because there wasn't any flexibility in the upper part of the shoe, and standing on my tip toes to reach for anything was impossible. 2. They are much stiffer than other Crocs I've tried. For durability in the kitchen, I don't see a problem with the stiffness of the shoe, but for comfort it was a pain. 3. The toe grips were in the wrong spot for my toes. I usually wear an 8.5 in shoes, but the 9 fit better in length in Crocs Bistro. However, with both the 8.5 and 9, the toe grip on the right shoe dug into the middle of my big toe. On the left shoe, the toe grip was nonexistent. Very weird. I returned these shoes. I've been wearing my Crocs Classics ever since. I love how comfortable they are, I just wish they didn't have holes in the top and sides so I could work in the kitchen safely. As for Zappos, I'm in love with their customers service. Fast shipping, easy exchanges, great to talk to on the phone. I'll definitely be ordering all of my shoes from Zappos.

I own a Hair Salon and I am on my feet 8 to 10 hours a day. I have wide feet across the ball and toes and a narrow heel. I also have a decent arch, not overly high but better than some I've seen and that was where I had my problem. I actually got a red sore across the top of my instep and if I wore them for any length of time my toes would get numb from the pressure on the nerves there. I felt the sole was quite comfortable, but with the tightness across the arch I couldn't even wear socks, which presented the problem of sweaty feet because of the rubber shoe. Any solutions for the tightness across the top of the instep? because otherwise I really liked them.

Owie, not for me. Bumps in shoe bed bothered my feet, and the croc button on the inside of the shoe rubbed the side of my foot raw, and I thought the foot bed support would be better.

I bought these for waitressing after a lot of coworkers recommended these because they are cheaper than Danskos but still comfortable. They definitely make your feet feel better than unsupported sneakers, but they still hurt my feet after several hours on them. I didn't really think they were comfortable, but just less uncomfortable than bad sneakers...they feel harder than most foot beds, which I found odd. I also found that the strap on the back was either too tight or too loose which made the shoe uncomfortable both way. I ended up buying the Danskos anyway and honestly can't see myself wearing these unless I need to wade through water or use them while gardening (if I ever pick that up). But I have never liked they way they look, so if you do they could be more useful to you.

I wore a pair of Croc Classics the whole summer and was blown away by how comfortable they were, so when the weather turned wet and cold I was looking for a pair of crocs that would keep my feet dry. While these kept my feet dry, they do not offer the same cushioning as the classic, it was very noticeable out of the box. With no venting at all my feet got a bit sweaty (my feet sweat a lot so this wasn't a fault of the crocs). The grippy sole was a problem for me, while it was nice to not slip around on surfaces like wet concrete, it picks up dirt and is impossible to get it out. It's like hundreds of tiny fingers grabbing debris. Even this I could deal with, just kick them off when I get in the house and switch to my summer pair for inside. The real problem was after a week of wearing them the grippy sole started peeling off the shoe, bummer. Zappos was great about it of course and I decided to give the Crocs Ultimate Cloud version a try. They have vents on top so water doesn't go in when you walk on the wet ground. They have pretty much the same sole as the classic, which results in a similar cushioning. Exactly what I was looking for.

These shoes are very comfortable; however, they are the ugliest shoes I have ever put on my feet. The toe box looks even wider than it does on the original Croc. I was not aware that was possible.

I like closed-toe Crocs, but really miss their original design that did not have such a tall heel. These are close, but not the same. I am hoping to like them better once I get use to the difference.

I bought this shoe to for work in the hospital setting. I likes that there are no holes as there is a possibility for exposure to bodily fluids, however, my feet sweat in them. Also, the material is much stiffer than a traditional Croc so they are not as soft and springy, and the foot nubs on the interior of the shoe are very hard and actually hurt my feet in the toe area. After wearing these for 2 shifts, I'm retiring them! I've always worn Dansko, and Ill be going back. many reviewers recommended ordering a half size down. I am a size 9 (on occasion a 9 1/2, I ordered the 9 and my toes are at the tip and my heel rubs the back. Crocs usually run a little large, not this style.

The Good: Very good shoe for food service. No laces and washable, waterproof shoe are easy to care for and just wipe clean. Comfortable shoe but I have always liked other Croc shoes so if you like Crocs you should like the the work version. Reasonably priced. The Bad: no ventilation, can get swampy but I drilled holes in the recessed and indented sides...worked for me. Also the adhesive bond used to stick the two non-skid panels onto the shoe bottom failed within 6 months but I just "superglued" them back.

These aren't pretty and they aren't the most comfortable Crocs I've had, but I work at an animal hospital and they are the most practical. The non slip bottoms are a fantastic idea and I wish they'd put them on all the shoes.

These are great shoes, but they have one design flaw: the tread is made up of a bunch of tiny little rubber nubbins. So, if you step on anything soft like mud, dog poop, food, etc., it will be bound to the bottom of the show until you scrub it out with a brush and hot water.

I'm sure these Crocs are comfy, but I couldn't get past how hideous they looked on me. It looked like I had platypus feet with them on. I've always been about comfort, but that's where I drew the line. I never wore them, and after many months of deliberation, I finally decided to return them for something a little more stylish than what granny-without-style would wear. They were basically sitting in my closet collecting dust. Thanks anyways Zappos!

I wore these for three months in a busy new restaurant. At first they were comfortable but after a while my feet began to hurt really bad after work and in the morning after long days. It got to the point were I had to stumble around my house to get my feet to warm up before I could even think about working.

Bought these as acheaper alternative to my old standby clogs the birki profi. I must say that these are not as cofortable as the birks. I found myself cutting the strap off on the first day as it was blistering the side of my foot, aproblem I never had with my regular crocs. The nonskid sole is a great improvent for the kitchen environment. Overall not a bad clog, they just don\'t compare to birkenstock.

work in the food industry and got these shoes for work in the kitchen. They're are awesome aside from the fact that anything remotely sticky will cling to the bottom of the shoe and create layers of squashed food particles to the point that renders the anti-slip design useless. Aside from that, they are light weight and surprisingly protective.

Good but not great... These shoes are definitely way more comfy than the kitchen Birki's, but if you actually work on a real kitchen line like I do, it gets pretty messy on the floor, and these shoes pick up everything you step on. At the end of the night these shoes are no longer non-slip because they are caked with food, and I have to go clean out all the little cracks in the shoe otherwise when you mop the floor, everything comes off on the floor. Big inconvenience. If you work in a busy kitchen I would not buy these.

I bought these as garden shoes but they are hard and slippery, zero traction, and very difficult to clean. I would not buy again. If you want great gardening clogs, look at the Bogs Sauvie Clog solid; the soles provide great traction and they are stylish enough that you can use them as rain shoes outside the garden as well.

I wasn't pleased with these Crocs - I'm a nurse who's splitting her time between being a scrub tech and nurse in the OR. I need shoes that will support my standing all day. These Crocs pinched oddly on my toes. It could be my weird feet, but anything that pinches is not okay. I'm returning them. Hats off to Zappos for being a fabulous online retailer and making returns easy!

This is my second pairs of Crocs Bistro. My first one lasted six months before the non slip soles detached from the bottom of my shoes, which I think that a little too soon. Which didn't bother me that much. So I decided to buy a second pair in February of this year. And the funny thing is the non slip soles starting to come off again. This is not what I expected, I only wear this new pair for roughly 2 months. That is the only complaint I have about the shoes, everything else is good.

I chose these because of the sole. However the similar style are much more comfortable. I would have and should have returned these, but I didn't get the full feel until I took the tags off and wore them for a few minutes. They are tight across the top of my foot and don't supply much cushioning. I tried them with a thinner sock, too. I gave a low rating on style...they're Crocs!

Well I was really excited about having a pair of slip-on, light-weight non-slip shoes for my serving job (I usually get Doc Marten style). My excited has ended. These shoes are great...until I hit any water or grease, then I almost fall. I can see how these shoes might be okay for cooks or people not moving around as much, but I would say these are a no-go for servers. I'll likely be buying the old style very soon.

Working in the food service industry I was hoping that Crocs would use a little more sense to make these shoes with one solid piece of rubber unfortunately when I noticed the bottoms the non slip, or lack thereof, insert was starting to come undone from the glue coming apart from the rest of the shoe and the non slip insert on the bottom was not up to industry standards as the shoe was not as secure as it could have been.

I am a baker and need pretty good support from my work shoes. These shoes were very comfy for my feet, but by the end of the day my back was killing me. I've got to stick with my Danskos; they kill my feet, but at least my back never aches when I wear them.

The anti-skid material on the sole is glued on. And both have come undone on these shoes with three weeks. Can't recommend. They are are comfortable, however. Shoes For Crews version of this shoes has a better sole but their ankle strap is weaker than the Crocs shoe.
