I was listening to NPR early this morning and there was a story about the popular hiker footwear company Crocs holding their Initial Public Offering (IPO) of stock. Story here if you're interested in the business side:

Only six other companies that have gone public since 2001, including Under Armour, have shown higher increases than Crocs from their original expected price ranges to their actual IPO prices, Thomson said.

I bought a pair of these over three years ago and really like them. Now it seems like they've become a trend; I've noticed people wearing them a lot more on the trail, so I was aware that they were getting popular.

I suppose I should have bought stock in Crocs 3 years ago, huh? :-?

Mrs.Gorp gave me some used ones in 2002. i loved them so much on and off trail that i ordered some black ones with no holes to wait tables in.
