As a nurse I have been wearing Crocs for years. I bought these Anywear Clogs because they are slightly less ugly than Crocs. However, they are not as comfortable. I read the reviews that say they are hot and squeaky and thought maybe that wouldn't happen to me, but no such luck. I tested them out on a half day on the floor (so around 6 hours). Towards the end of the shift, my feet were sweaty and I was squeaking in my shoes whenever I walked. My feet also hurt at the end of the day from the friction of sliding around in my own sweat. I won't chance a twelve hour shift wearing these shoes. I'll probably put them in my locker as spares.
