Crocs. Some people hate em, others love em and I think they're pretty great.
They may look a little funny to some (I actually kind of like the look of them now), but obviously those people have not tried them on. These shoes are so easy to slip your feet into and out of, if you get them dirty at all you can simply take them off and wash them in the sink (they dry very quickly too!), they're great for around the house and everywhere else too. In the summer they're great because your feet can breathe a lot, in the winter just put on some socks and you're good to go.
