Customer Reviews Crocs Bistro Vent

Sad to say, these are just okay. They are not nearly as comfy as my other Crocs. The insole is not as soft, and the upper rubs on the top of my foot. After a 9 hour work day, the top of my foot was tender. They would be okay as a garden shoe, or just running to the store, but not for any length of time. One more thing. While they are not a fashion shoe, and I have big feet, (12W) these shoes are like clown shoes! My feet look huge in them. Oh well, I'm going to keep them, just to have an all weather, shoe, that I can abuse, but for every day? No way.

Two years ago, I bought these exact shoes as a gift. They fit perfectly, and were noted as being 'nice and roomy'. This year I reordered them as a gift and they had to be returned, and the next size up had to be ordered because the length was short, and they were narrower. The person who these were for had lost weight over the two year time period, so that wasn't an issue. Crocs' must have changed their pattern.

Love these shoes for bartending! I work about 20 hours a week and these shoes last me at least a year. Other people I know pay $70+ for work shoes, but these are so comfy! They are stiff the first day, and then they are broken in! Highly recommend!

These shoes are awesome! Extremely comfortable and well-vented, they fit a little large for me, but still very comfortable. I wear them with thicker socks. I just got them, so I can't comment on durability, but they seem solid enough and should last a long time. Not real pretty, but very comfortable.

These guys are nothing fancy, but they're comfy and get the job done. I gave a 3 for style because they're ugly, but I will continue to purchase them for other reasons. Zappos is amazing!

Fast, accurate, fairly priced = Zappos. These with the vent holes in them are much cooler than my pair without vents. I spent a lot on professional clogs but these are more comfortable and they are easy to clean.

I like to put foam inserts in shoes and wear wool socks and these were deep and wide enough to accommodate, I wish they had more color options though. I was reluctant to wear them in public, however, because they make my feet look enormous, but they work if you wear wide leg pants and actually look better than small shoes with wide pants. I have to stand at work for hours and these are the only brand of shoes that reduces the foot pain.

This is the second pair of Crocs I've ordered - love them! So easy to slip on and I find them very comfortable.

I ordered these for my wife after reading reviews just like this one and all I can say is: buy them from Zappos! She is still going on about how great they are for her. BTW, she's a retired registered nurse so a comfortable gardening shoe was a must. Crocs are every bit as good as they say they are.

I bought these to bartend in. I used the sport version at my last couple of gigs but I needed black ones so I figured I'd try the bistros. They are comfortable but not as comfortable as the sport version, which are also slip resistant. Both are way more comfortable than the Mozo that I bought.

Fit is true. I had to go a half size smaller because the half a size bigger was falling off of my feet. This size fits good.

My boyfriend is a standard size 12, but these size 12's ran a little big. According to my boyfriend, the Bistro Croc with no vent is preferred due to kitchen mop water getting in the side vents. Therefore, I am exchanging for size 11 Bistro Croc with no vents.

The Bistro with vents is great - they are more unisex so a little bigger/wider - the arch is somewhat supportive but not like a clog. All around they are my favorite shoes for the kitchen.

If you're on your feet all day, these are amazing...especially at this price.

I am no stranger to Crocs, living in the South. I wear the original style as house shoes because they are well ventilated and super comfy. They are way too ugly to wear out in public, though. I wanted a pair of Crocs that didn't look as ugly as the original style so that I could wear them running errands, etc.. The Bistro style seemed to be the answer, as they resemble regular clogs. The Bistro is much wider than the original style Crocs. Someone else mentioned "Clown Shoe" and they're right. I think these would fit a Hobbit's foot fine. And, despite the ventilation vents along the sides, my feet started to sweat just testing them out in my house, so I can't imagine how awful they'd feel after running errands in Louisiana heat. I still love Crocs, but the Bistro style needs a little work.

Please, if you are a woman with normal width feet, do not buy these. You will regret it. I wear a size 8 in women's and these look like a size 12 men's on me. They look ridiculous. Only buy these if you are a man or a woman with wide feet. You will regret it. Go for a more feminine style. I am returning them. They are comfortable and fit perfectly but they are so ugly on me.

Bottom of foot comfort is there. I was disappointed that my toe nails were sore after a shift. Although I bought Croc slippers in size 6 and thought size 6 would be okay for these, I probably should have gotten size 7. Half size if offered would have been best.

I work in the hospitality industry and spend a fair amount of time in a commercial kitchen. I read the reviews and decided my size 8.5 feet would be fine in a women's 8/men's 6. Nope - too small. My heel rubbed on the back of the clog and my toes touched the front. I wore them for 8 hours right out of the box. The soles were much firmer than other crocs I own and I didn't care for the feel. Even though there are vents in the shoe my feet were so hot and sweaty after my shift I had to wash them and the shoes. No way these will work for me - they are going back.

I needed work shoes with a slip-resistant outsole for a new job in a commercial kitchen. These are supposed to be designed for food service professionals, but I found them extremely uncomfortable after just one long shift. The point where the strap hinges to the instep hits my foot at a very sensitive spot, and I was miserable at the end of the day. I have very wide feet, bunions and a hammertoe. These just don't work for me.
