Crocs in the backcountry?

[gostovp]

Anyone pack crocs in with them for a camp shoe on backcountry hunts?

I was listening to a footwear podcast from the Exo guys and Steve said he packs them in to wear at the end of day, possible stream crossings, etc…

Was wondering if any other roksliders do this.

When things get hairy you just switch them to sport mode and carry on.

I have thought about it many times over the years. Have never brought them with. Not so much for the weight but for the amount of room they take up in the pack. They are kind of chunky.

Strap them outside.

Always have crocs at camp.

Regular Crocs or the All Terrian ones that have better traction and an adjustable back strap?

Yup

Been doing it way before it was the cool thing to do on podcasts. Great camp shoes and good for water crossings.

I haven't because they're heavy. I recently had a little bout with Temu and ended up buying knock offs for $7. They're half the weight and just as comfortable so I may actually end up bringing them along in case we decide to spike camp.

It’s weird when people don’t bring crocs. If you really want to geek out, the Walmart ones are lighter than the croc brand.

What, are you planning to climb Everest in them? Plain old crocs.

Yep! They're a must. I put chute cord loops on the top holes so I can use a caribeaner to clip them to my pack.

Why not just clip them by the heel strap? It’s worked for me.

I bring them about 85% of the time. Love lounging around in them. I use them to cold soak my feet or legs in a creek after a long day of hiking.I can Walk all around camp while letting the dogs out to breathe. Every time I don’t bring them, I regret it.

I just clip to outside of pack.
