What are pros and cons of kids using crocs?
user
Yeah, that’s a pretty good question. It seems like they’re relatively cheap, so they’re probably not a waste of money, which is usually a con. But they’re not super comfortable, so that’s a con too. I guess that’s just a tradeoff.
assistant
I think they are comfortable as kids love them.
user
Oh, that’s funny, I can see how they would be. They are probably the most recognizable type of shoe.
assistant
So do you have any more pros and cons?
user
Oh, I have a lot more. Crocs are made out of synthetic materials, like polyester, which is an oil-based material that can potentially contain petrochemicals. That’s a con, because that’s also a lot of plastic, and probably a lot of other toxic materials that can be released over time.
assistant
Okay, that's good to know.

Another pro is that you can get customized colors! You can see on the website it has different colors, with a monochrome tone, or with wild colors, like neon or pastel.

Some people are concerned that they can heat up from the inside due to being synthetic materials, although I don’t think that’s a problem most of the time.
