Don\u2019t know why but I never liked this latest trend of Croc Sandals, yeah, no doubt they are very attractive, comes in nine styles and 17 colours and people say they are very comfortable. Somehow these sandals don\u2019t convince me, I don\u2019t like the plastic look of it. <\/p>\n

But I am completely bowled by picture, where George Bush is wearing Crocs Sandals, cool huh! <\/p>\n

Prince William’s girlfriend Kate Middleton has also been seen in a pair. <\/p>\n

Anyways now there\u2019s sad news for people who love croc sandals and wear them to their work. <\/p>\n

Nurses have been banned from wearing Crocs shoes in hospital over safety fears. <\/p>\n

A Swedish hospital have banned their nurses from wearing Crocs shoes in the hospital over safety fears, hospital claims they generate static electricity that can knock out medical equipment. And a US hospital said syringes could fall through the holes, well this is a stupid excuse I say. <\/p>\n

UK bosses have also given the plastic slippers the boot, saying they look unprofessional. Many nurses prefer the brightly coloured footwear to conventional shoes because they are comfortable on the wards. <\/p>\n

Nurses walk up to five miles during a 12-hour shift. The ban on the rubbery clogs has caused a rift between nurses and their managers at Sheffield Teaching Hospitals Foundation NHS Trust. <\/p>\n

Health chiefs are also concerned the sling back design and holes in the top and sides could spread infection. <\/p>\n

But a supplier of Crocs said the patented Croslite resin used to make them is easier to clean than the materials in normal shoes. Croslite is also reputed to “resist bacteria” and stop feet smelling. <\/p>\n

The \u00a329 sandals have become popular in Britain after being launched in the US in 2003.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
