Customer Reviews Crocs Crocs - RX Relief

I was surprised by this shoe. I need major arch support which this does not have. And still I have experienced relief from foot and heel pain. Must be the little nubs on the footbed. I wear them around the house. Are not as wide as the sport.

Great crocs! They fit perfectly and are very comfy. Cute too!

This is the best shoe in the world. It isn't attractive, but what it lacks in looks, it makes up in sheer comfort. I have worn this style of Crocs for about 5 years and my plantar faciitis has been gone since the beginning. If I need to wear a dress shoe, I toss these in the car to change into as soon as I can. The only thing I wish is that they came in more colors.

Wow! First of all, I read all the reviews. I was looking for Plantar Fasciitis relief. I bought a pair based on the reviews. I was hardly able to walk prior to getting these shoes without significant left heel pain due to PF. I got this pair on Friday, wore them around the house Friday night. Relief! Saturday I went to a soccer game in these shoes. My daughter hurt her arm, ended up at the ER all afternoon after the game. The next day (what would normally have been agony) was painless! I am still doing icing, Advil, stretches, etc. of course. But I can't believe that after being on my feet all day Saturday that I was even able to walk on Sunday at all, let alone without pain in my left heel. A miracle! That being said: 1) These are Crocs. They are nerdy, ugly and not at all stylish. I'd give them a -5 stars if I could on the Style scale. But my feet don't really care, and neither do I if I can get back to my life. 2) They are true to size, but Crocs were designed to be roomy, airy and light. If you've never worn them before, they take some getting used to. At first you feel like you're going to step out of them or they are going to fall off your feet. Most people find them roomy enough to wear with socks in the winter (notches up the nerd factor). 3) Plenty of toe room for post-surgery type of concerns. 4) They are different/more supportive than regular Crocs that I have owned in the past. I was concerned because a few of the reviews questioned this, but I could tell a difference from the moment I slipped them on. 5) These are shoes we're reviewing here - not a spoon or a pencil, items that work for 99.9999% of the population. Everyone's feet are different. They are not going to solve everyone's foot or Plantar Fasciitis problems. But they do help the majority of the people. So, if you can afford to spend the money on something that helps 80%+ of the people, then take that chance that it will work for you. If you can't look for another solution. 6) PF is a condition that is managed, not solved with a shoe - continue to ice, stretch, use meds, and supportive shoes like these Crocs, etc. when symptoms start to return, or better yet do those things all the time to keep symptoms at bay.

These shoes are a real life saver! My Dad just got out of 2 weeks in the hospital and it's very hard for him to walk. His feet and back are killing him. I bought him these shoes with my fingers crossed that they would help even a little...and he loves them! Wears them everywhere...every single day! He says he's never felt shoes this comfy!

I followed the recommendation and took the size smaller than marked. That worked perfectly. So far, it's very comfortable though I might consider socks because the holes are placed so that one toe wants to poke into a hole, but that's just me.

I really like these shoes. I have multiple foot problems and these shoes helped them all. Zappos has the BEST customer service and shipping policy.

I am not a Crocs kind of guy, but I find these to be very comfortable and great when your shoes get wet for no slipping.

Like all Crocs this model is light and very wide for wide feet and comfortable to wear. The fact that it doesn't have holes on top make it somewhat more elegant than the classic Crocs design.

These are the most comfortable and supportive Crocs I've ever had. I've been having some ankle and knee problems related to working out (and age!); my old Crocs, standard Classic Croc, exacerbated the problems. I had thought abandoning Crocs but decided to try the Relief. Within two minutes of slipping into them and walking about the house, the ankle and knee pain was nonexistent. I'm sure the old/worn pair were contributing to the issues. The Relief has much more support, approaching 100%, compared to the std. model. This is worth the extra money for the comfort and support. These are not spongy, but provide firm and supportive comfort and stability. I wear a size 8 walking shoe, 8.5 running shoe, and take a men's size 7 in a Croc. The style is what it is, they're Crocs -- we know what they're going to look like when gaze at our feet: stylized shoe boxes that feel like 'limousines for the feet'. The feel is excellent. If you have lower leg, foot, ankle, or knee problems, the Relief will provide much more support and comfort than the original Croc clog and may help you to recover or simply to get around more comfortably. Great shoe!

Shoe ran about a size larger and quite a bit wider that my old Crocs. Arch was not that much better. Will be returning and getting my previous shoe.

Great shoes, but watch out for the sun! I've had two pairs of these and just ordered my third. They are comfortable, affordable, and really help my plantar fasciitis. As to style, well, they're Crocs: not my favorite look, but the comfort more than compensates. Their only flaw is that they shrink and deform when left in hot sunshine for a couple days! I learned this first with a pair I left on my porch, and then with a pair I had with me while camping. Each feels like it lost close to a full size and bent in in a way that's not comfortable. So, I'm buying these again because they feel great, and will be more careful with where I leave them.

I decided to try these as indoor shoes/slippers. I'm having a recurrence of plantar fasciitis now and need to wear cushy shoes/slippers most of the time. I tried these on after work, changing from the gel-soled gym shoes I wore while commuting home. My very first impression was that they were way too big. But as I walked around in them some more I realized they worked just fine for my purposes. The length of the shoe is about normal, but they are very wide. For someone with wide feet these shoes should be quite comfortable. The extra width will be nice in the winter because I'll be able to easily wear thick socks. I have high arches, so to me there doesn't seem to be a lot of arch support, but I mainly wanted a cushioning, gently yielding surface to soften my hardwood floors and these work great for that purpose. I also find the little nubs inside quite nice. I'm rating them low on style because (let's face it) they're really not attractive.

I bought these after a bad bout of plantar fasciitis, and I was really dedicated to alleviating my pain (icing, stretching, etc.). However, I just needed something to walk around my hardwood floors and porcelain kitchen tiles. At first, they weren't that impressive. It felt better than going barefoot, and I felt some of the support I needed for the front of my heel, but it still didn't feel that much different from another shoe that had good support. However, after a few weeks of wearing them around, they must have softened a little or adjusted, but now I can go from my regular shoes (which will still have some pain after a long day of walking) to these Crocs, and the pain will almost entirely go away. It's pretty nice. They're as everyone has said not the best looking, but definitely helps when I have to stand in my kitchen and wash dishes or cook dinner for a longer period of time.

I have wide feet, with low arches, and these shoes fit great. I work 12 hour shifts, however, these shoes never make my feet feel tired. The only drawback is that the soles wear fast.

Well, having been a devoted Crocs Girl for years I can't believe it's happening . . . but I am very unhappy with the pair ("Relief") that I just received :( I have had this exact same shoe in the same size for quite a while, and like all Crocs, it fits me perfectly. However the pair I just received is WAY too wide, and there is no way I could wear them without socks . . . NOT what I wish to do with this kind of shoe. In addition to this, one of the straps has quite obviously been stretched out, and therefore will not even lay down on the front of the shoe. Frankly I am quite disappointed that someone actually put this shoe into the box seeing as the defect is obvious. Unfortunately I need to wear these shoes to a new job I start in two days, so I'm going to have to somehow take the straps off and wear socks whether I want to or not. I love Zappos and this is not a familiar experience with them.

This style of Crocs fit me the best after trying several others. I use them to wear around the house so I keep my heals cushioned on our wood floors. They are also great to slip on and run outside with the dogs.

I prefer the look of these to the basic Croc clogs, because I just don't like the signature holes in the top of the shoe, but since there are holes around sides you still get some air to your toes. I would have given these five stars all around, except that I thought they wore out very quickly. Before there was nothing left to the bottoms, they were incredible.

This is the second pair for my husband. They were perfect for ankle/foot swelling after hip replacement surgery. Unfortunately, they separated where the holes join with the sole after being worn for a single season, therefore, the replacement. These are comfy for his bunions and other foot issues.

These shoes are ugly and embarrassing, let's not pretend otherwise. However, I am a barefoot person at heart and that was really aggravating the inflammation at the site of my Morton's neuroma surgery. These shoes, which I wear solely in and around the house, allow me the convenience of barefoot with much greater comfort. They are nice and loose, giving my feet plenty of room to do their natural thing, yet they stay on my feet just fine, even as clogs. Would recommend to anyone who longs to be barefoot, but their feet won't allow it.

I bought a pair of these (Rx) and a pair of the Bistro. The Rx did not have an adjustable rear strap which actually makes a big difference. Kept the Bistro, returning the Rx.

This shoe is very wide and not too attractive on a woman's foot. It will only work for me with thick socks.

I ordered W8, my size. My toes are up against the end when I walk. Without the heel strap I'd have more room, but these clogs are big enough elsewhere that I can't keep them on without the heel strap. I have a pair of Sloggys (formerly made by Sloggers), that are softer inside, better countoured to my foot, and Crocs don't compare. But alas, Sloggers doesn't carry the Sloggy anymore. I want to like Crocs because there is little else to choose from, and so many do, but they don't work for me. These are going back.
