    Doubt.

    Most popular footwear in Hosiptals are birkenstocks.

    Crocks are popular with young kids and people in the south of the US.

      This seems like you googled that and took the sponsored link as gospel. Every article I’ve seen mentions Crocs and tons of other brands over birks. I’m not even an advocate of Crocs, was just curious as I didn’t believe the birks comment and have looked in to shoes a ton over the years. Birks and toe drop are a real thing and a pain

      This is what happens when you have a bias and then just find a search result to match it instead of caring about actual facts

      Speaking as a hospital worker, in a hospital, wearing crocs. Doing a fast count in my department I see 12 pairs of crocs, among about 20-ish people.

      What the fuck is a birkestock.

        Birkenstocks are great sandals that are popular with hippy types… I’ve owned several pairs over the years and I love them.

        However, they’re not really quite as comfortable as Crocs.
