Crocs Neo Puff Boot Review - Crocs are some of the most popular shoes in the world and in the last few years crocs have gone main stream. Crocs are far from a winter shoe so when I saw that croc released a boot I had to buy one to review mostly because now I had an excuse to wear crocs all year round. Unfortunately they didn't live up to my expectation and made what might be the worst boot shoe ive ever cut apart and is a text book example of fast fashion made to sell crocs jibbitz.

When Weston started talking about generational decline in testosterone, I thought that was a lead-in to a discussion about why Crocs exist.
Comment made me lol
Same lol.
Great comment
Ditto lol
So did I. I nearly expected to hear that the shoes were the cause for testosterone decline.
You could recreate this product by combining standard Crocs with a pair of fluffy socks
And it would be superior to this crap, cos you could just wash your socks and crocks any time you want.
I have done this taking the dogs out in the cold and can confirm its good 👍
@@brianbell4491 And it will certainly discourage anyone from chatting you up.
@@jingshelpmaboab oh most certainly but being married at the time at 3am I was ok with that lol
Don’t forget the plastic bags over the socks…secured with Duck tape…classic hillbilly high end look!
Crocs designs boot.- chooses to put giant holes in the boot to stay true to the croc look. I feel there's a design/production engineer somewhere laughing as hard as possible right now because a marketing team refuses to listen to him about this. You are vindicated good sir.
What's bizarre is that they already make ones without holes for kitchen Crocs
It's just an off-the-shelf croc with a sock sewn/glued in. This was just a money grab.
The older models of the boot did not have the holes and was fully closed, with only the shaft made of nylon. My guess is the whole Jibbitz thing is the reason for this one.
I'm pretty sure all they did was stick a fancy sock inside a standard Croc.
Took a worthless thing and made another worthless thing out of it.
@@Mikhos Yes, why didn’t they base it on the Crocs Bistro instead?
For this video we forgot to put in the 'Cut Center Score'....So it is now a choose your own adventure deal. Comment your score below.
I think that was the angriest cut I've seen you do.
I think a 3.2 would be fair
Try this on the Croc × Balenciaga boot.
This easily a 1.7
I never understood what that score means exactly. Does a lower score mean it's easier to cut?
Agreed. As soon as I saw those holes I thought it was garbage.
Croc makes a work line with no holes and slip resistant already, all they would need to do is slip that sock into it 🤦♂️
Ugg’s and moonboots also get soaked in water, way more than these boots. What y’all are so mad about. These shoes are made for city life and for statement rather than for heavy duty or playing in snow in Canada
This is just pure shit why are you defending this garbage? Boots you mention arent any good either.
It it ... It floats , 1000% on water immersion test 🤣
All while you were showing the half-cut, I thought: this could be a way to make perfect kids boots that would be super cheap, if there were no holes in it, a little more insulation, better water-proofing, etc. And of course, no brand name to boost the price.
It could be a good idea to do a video about that, for parents with low income: which are the best no-name cheap boots for kids, since kids usually need a new pair each year until they're 15.
Thus far with my son ive found its way better to buy slightly used higher quality boots from garage sales/thrift stores/ebay/etc..
And then either sell/gift them when he's done. Buying new seems stupid especially when there's so much kid stuff out there that's barely been touched.
rain boots with wool socks work great for us. Just make sure you check socks for wetness and change as needed.
@@junipertree2601 That’s what I had growing up, just a cheap pair of gum boots and socks.
@@cheesecurd100s Very true. I received gifts and bought things for my kids that they never were in the right size for during the right season, and went to the thrift store in mint condition.
Maybe the rain boots and wool socks worked in your state for winter. Here where I live you’d have frost bitten toes if a person tried to use that for winter boots. Not all parts of the world have winter weather conditions that that little for winter cold protection would work.
Putting holes in a boot defeats the purpose of a boot.
You should do a teardown of a 2010 Crocs boot. It was way more durable and considered an actual boot. Super lightweight and perfect for the winter.
I had those!
They were great! I had a pair that were obnoxious colours but they were so warm and light. They felt almost like a cast boot until you put them on, then they would become the perfect soft, everyday boots. Wish I could get another (less crazy coloured!) pair.
They'd be better off selling a 'Croc to boots lining' so that any pair can be turned into 'boots', but all they want is that dolla....
Socks? 😉
Exactly, all they had to do was not sew and glue it in so it could be removed and washed.. It would literally cost them less money to improve the product by at least 100%.
Love your direct, unvarnished, opinion of products!....hah. it is certainly a major reason why you've gotten so many subscribers so quickly. Always look forward to your videos! Have a Merry Xmas!
It would be so much easier to make a versatile removal washable boot like lining that had snap attachments for the holes in the regular Crocs if they wanted to go with the look. You could change the look of the croc with a different lining. Wash it easily and still decorate it with the weird badges if you wanted to. And it would be virtually the same boot without a lot of design flaws.
They had that for one time for their basic models before the brand experienced a resurgence in popularity. It was the basic style without the strap and a removable liner to wear it with or without faux shearling.
How about some wool socks and normal crocs?
@@carllane7921 Hideous
Sounds like the defunct iPhone 5c
I think you know what you’re getting if you’re buying crocs lol
@@joeybaseball7352 they are crocs. You should expect crocs. Nothing fancy.
I already hated them for their look and now, thanks to you, I can hate them even more for their overall construction.
The best thing I saw about crocs was using them as hanging planters. Lol
I applaud you for these videos. I buy most of my apparel and footwear online, so I don't get the chance to physically inspect the quality of materials and build before buying.
Loved the preview of the next video. That way one knows what to expect...
It’s just the classic shoe with a liner glued in to keep your feet warm in cold weather. They didn’t even consider if it would work as a boot. They didn’t want to pay to update the design and make it functional. They just glued in a furry sock to the existing shoe.
EDIT: apparently they do still sell the all cast ones which don't have holes, but the quality doesn't seem the same as the ones 10+ years ago. I'd like to see the duck boots and Axle models brought back.
The Crocs boots I had were EVA all the way up, no holes or anything, and they were marketed as rain boots since they were they were the most waterproof I've ever seen. That was like, 2008 or so, and I miss those. I would have needed only one size larger for them to still fit. They did get really sweaty, but as a kid jumping in puddles, they were great. The floatiness was a bit hard to get used to, but yeah, the old ones never had holes in the boots, they made ones without holes and they looked like a neon coloured duck boot. But they don't make stuff the way they used to. They used to have factories in Canada, Mexico, and Italy, possibly others, before moving only to China, and the quality went down after that.
But what was the center cut score?
5.3, he coulda done better.
Y’all - you’re definitely supposed to fill all the holes on top with decorative jibbitz
I can't stop watching your videos!
I'm so glad I watched this video! Thank you x
I don't know what to say
I would love to see you review different kitchen nonslip work shoes. I own several pairs, and my favorite by far is my danskos but my crocs are actually surprisingly good too!
Why not sell just the lining and have it be snapable from the inside to the shoe itself, that way you could take it out and wash it. But then then again if you want to wear crocks in the cold, just wear loose woolly socks with them. The UGG boots look like kuoma boots that are very common and cheap in Finland, they are waterproof and warm.
Ligit what I thought and if you're super into Crocs you could change the color of the lining or the Crocs. Also if the lining and Crocs are both washable, the lining being machine washable, no issues with trapped stuff.
"What's wrong with crocs?"
"They are the universal sign of a man that has given up." Jason Mantzoukas- the Dictator.
Let’s be honest... they designed these simply as a joke and to see who is dumb enough to actually wear them.
Hi there,
I hope you are right. That would be the only intelligent thing you can find here.
I think it was only meant as a fashion item, nothing more.
@@tomtomtom6970
They serve as in-house loungewear just fine.
Thanks for the review
Can you do a video on a pair of Japanese made leather shoes or boots? Japanese craftsmanship is usually top notch and itd be interesting to see how they do their shoes/boots there
i really appreciate the time stamps bro thank you, love your vids, i now own redwings thanks to you i still find my hiking timbs comfier as they fit my feet perfectly but with thicker socks i cant wait to get out i nthe redwings, i know theyll last longer! sad the boots i have were discontinued though :( thanks Weston!!!
So good! Random thought…have you ever considered cutting up some Dansko clogs?
I always learn soo much here.
Low T advertising is perfect for this video 😂
The scary thing is how dysfunctional as these things are, they still have a sole far superior to the Sorel's.
That was a real boot? I thought this was another April fool's joke. Crocs suck ace
this literally is a worthy opponent for the croc martens
I was also wondering if it was April 1st
Just wear woolly socks with a pair of crocs…or just never buy crocs
The croc trend will never die!
I like your jacket! It looks cozy. Could you please do a review on Nobull boots? They have some unique leather boots.
My wife bought me my first pair of crocs. I was amazed by the comfort but hate the look. I was considering buying the boot for everyday . But after watching this I have changed my mind. Thank you for this video. It was quite helpful and insightful.
$75 lol wow. They can't cost more than $10 to make. Fashion kills everything.
I remember having to wear bread bags on my feet because my old worn out boots had holes. That was because of being dirt poor. Now Crocs is bringing back bread bag liners because of shitty design.
We did that too, with elastic bands to hold them up.
Have you ever done a Muck/Bogs style boot review? If not, I would definitely like to see one. Muck Chore boots are one of my favorite winter boots. Thanks for the content!
Thank goodness for Hone. I didn't even know Croc's really made a boot but after finding out I feel just a bit more feminine.
I have a couple suggestions on some boots for you to cut in half! Also how about a hiking boot/fashion forward boot series?
1. Salomon quest 4D gtx advanced and the X ultra 3 mid gtx boot
2. Diemme roccia, Everest, balbi and civetta
3. ROA andreas, Neal and CVO boots
4. It would be cool to see a pair of danners mountain light cut in half!
The diemme and ROA’s are a bit expensive hence why they’re “fashion forward” styled hiking boots
Would love to see you do this with the new Echo boots, they look to have fixed the dumbness of these with the holes ontop.
I think Crocs would have benefited sealing those holes like they do for the work Forest version of their clogs or even the Sherpa lined clogs that also don't have holes over that top of the foot. I know Crocs make a duck boot or maybe they used to I don't remember seeing them the last time I visited their website
All I needed to see . I don’t need boots for summer I need them to work for fall winter and spring. Which these will go bad so fast within a few wearing. Thank you.
I had a well to do customer that never had a complaint one about his repair bills on his watercraft.
Was talking to him one day bout his hobbies and the expense.
Turns out he is a foot doctor, told me that the Porsche RS Cup car he drove was paid for by Crocs, Chuck Taylor's, and Flip-flops.
If they’d make these properly I could see them being very handy for taking my dog out on wet and cold days. I kinda love the idea, actually. As they are I wouldn’t buy them though. One of my favorite things about crocs is that they are so easy to keep clean. I have no use for crocs I can’t keep clean.
Buy some “shrimp boots” you can get 100% Eva foam boots that are basically like rubber boots but very light, comfortable, and easy to slip on
Ou get very thick boot socks for the normal crocs lol
I’d imagine the croc still has holes solely for the purpose of saving money. It’s clearly just an existing croc glued together with a boot insert. Using a product they already have to make an entirely new one is probably better on expenses.
Please don't shill for Hone or similar insecurity-preying companies.
Video Suggestion: would love your analysis on some huaraches (the Mexican woven leather sandals, not the Nike sneakers).
There are lots of manufacturers claiming traditional, hand-made construction and implying that's better. Then there are mainstream manufacturers selling factory-made but cheaper options. Would be interesting to see your take on the differences in leather and construction quality.
Yes, I'm mentally ready for warmer weather.
That’s why I bought the other Croc boots. I got the white ones that are totally enclosed and higher on the foot as well as $99. But I also don’t expect perfection from them. I just want them to be comfy to and from my car. I walk with cane and I can’t bend my knees much. So the ease of getting them on and off is what I want. Plus these have better traction on the bottom and don’t have jibbetz ability on them! I have other Croc’s for that. I love my Crocs but like I said I like the more expensive one better. It is constructed better.
It’s bizarre that these don’t have two features from previous winterized crocs: no holes, and a snap in removable liner. They have done both of these things on some previous models.
Hahaha! I love your crocs videos! They are always hysterical. I couldn’t stop laughing and when you did the ketchup? I go where’s the mayo and right on cue! I may have to rewatch as I was laughing so hard.
Crocs boots .Designed for those winters without snow ,slush or freezing temperatures. Only 75 bucks. A steal if you ask me.
That’s like Ugg Over the Knee boots. A snow boot you’re not supposed to wear in the snow, and which will become terribly stained if you do. $350. And their entire Classic I boot line is the same.
i got a ad for Xtratufboots wheel rewatching you should look at those next!
The worst part is Crocks makes shoes without the holes. Why would they not use those shoes for this boot? DUMB...
Unbelievably dumb.
Great as always! I will stick to my whites.
I had to turn it off after the cut in half. I get the picture. 🤢. Thank you for doing this, though. I thought about getting those but the problem of the holes did occur to me. I just figured they must have some way of handling that. Guess not!
You should do a review of Kodiak boots. They seem to be a decent budget Canadian boot company. My partner has had a pair for many years now and they have held up tremendously well.
Legit question - Is there a name for the tool you use to cut boots in half?
(Please don't say that it is a knife)
It's a spoon
It's a ratchet wrench.
Its a dagger
It's a fork 🍴 😒
It's a pointy stabby thing
Yeah, it seems like it would be better make the liner removable so you wear it like a sock (maybe with some retention so you don't take it out until you want to) inside of the rubber boot and can clean them individually.
I guess to make them even snow or winter worthy, might as well put wood putty or flex seal in the holes so no snow can get in, and then coating the nylon and might as well do the rest of the shoe in the water proofing hydrophobic spray on stuff and then they might be acceptable for winter.
Have you cut open a pair of Georgia Giant Wellington pull-on boots yet? I have been wearing this type of boot for 15 years and just love them. I'd love to see you rip a pair of them open and hear your thoughts on them.
The combination of the sponsor with this boot is perfect.
Imagine buying these and thinking they will be good quality outdoor boots
Do some asolo boots fugitive. Or the vasquez boots. Clarks dessert treks with the gum bottom
you should do the north face expedition system booties
Does Hone sale or distribute your bio data and what do they do with the sample when there done?
Back in the day I actually had brown crocs with a faux fur or shearling Ugg style lining around the opening. And they still had the holes on top like a regular croc. Yes, people teased me. They make a similar version today, but it’s not the same.
Did I miss the center cut score or was it forgotten?
Please do the Nike SFB 2 8" Gore Tex I and regular version
You're definitely not way off with these boots or the brand in general. I work with people that swear by Croc's due to the comfort, but they don't even work in restaurant settings due to hot water spillage and whatnot. I use a pair of lmockoff Blundstones that while held together with Shoe Goo due to cracked leather and are safer, more slip resistant in the environment, a dude burned his toes when hot oil hit his crocs. My main boot of choice is a pair of wonderful Redback's that have to fail me. Croc's are terrible in general and their winterboot as you said in the video is only for folks who want to look trendy. Great video as usual and best to you and yours.
Thumbsing up for the stuff in the holes
Could you do brooks walking shoe in leather? Also sketchers work sneakers?
You're right about these croc boots I'd buy them if the holes are not there cuz be a three-season boot but I do like buying Crocs because I tried Walmart brand a Dollar General brand just seems like they don't hold up as well as the Crocs last pair hold up for 3 years I have a line version right now but not the boot part
Love that you left the ccs “ “. I was wondering if you were going to put something like “idk”.
Would you mind cut the urban Shepherd in half i just making a decision about my first boot but i dont know what inside.
they're actually crocslite foam which is actually very interesting, anti bacterial, anti slip, water proof, soft but sturdy enough to use as both an insole and an outsole
When are we getting Clomps boots?
Oh damn, im sorry to hear about the fire, thats terrible 😢
Test the Kamik Icebreaker please!
I used to have a pair of crocs mud boots, and wish I had them still. They don't make them in mens anymore. They were like a rubber mud boot, but since the foam was much thicker it added some insulation from cold. They just got sweaty easily.
You should start reviewing cowboy boots!
Crazy how this is even real, like holy shit that is nuts
Can you do a steel/composite toe boot series please?
@Rose Anvil : have you checked if the sole pattern is any different to normal crocs? (which it should be in order to grip on snow) coz if it's the same the explanation for the holes could just be that the boot is a repurpose of unsold regular crocs rather than a ploy to sell jibbitz
What about shoe the bear brand? Are they good for 60$ on sale?
Crocs have been popular for over a decade. I’m not sure it is going away.
Way longer than that. They started gaining popularity in the late 90s. They just peaked around 2008 or so. But yeah, they've made it beyond the "fad" phase.
But also, they make some other stuff that's actually pretty good: boat shoes, sandals, etc. They're a smart company. I don't think they'll die off anytime soon.
They should have used the bistro crocs as they don’t have holes and have a proper slip resistant outsole
I have regular crocs with a faux fur lining and no holes. There’s a back to the shoe, not just a strap. I have used them shoveling snow. They really work well! (Assuming you are careful enough not to fall on ice).
Can already tell the “solution” to those clog holes is filling the whole darn thing w/ their jibbitz. More money for them I guess :/
I have 12 pairs of crocs. I love crocs. I just ordered these on Zappos in Chai for $59.95 They are comfortable. I do not use charms on my shoes. Yeah but people don't normally spill milk on their boots or ketchup or chips.
I can't stop imagining putting this things on and a spider coming out of the holes
Frustratingly they could have just gone the route of Hunter and made a companion sock for the standard Croc. If they just made weatherproof insulated booties that fit into Crocs (which you could pull out and wash), I think they would sell well.
Great video!! Thanks for making this video!! Very informative!! I will not be buying these!’
Could you do a review on luggs
Do the yeezy foam runner and yeezy slides cut them in half I would like to see if they’re worth to price
