Flashback Wednesdays

This flashback brings back so many memories. Jelly shoes. The most functional shoes ever created. I remember playing tag and climbing trees in these shoes. They formed to your feet and the greatest part? They never smelled.
I had a white pair of what's pictured above. Did you partake in the Jelly trend? If so, what do you remember about them?

In 20 years people will be reminiscing about Crocs.

I had some glittery pink Jellys.
Now I have some pink crocs.

Oh, how little things have changed.

I remember having several pairs- probably because they were cheap and its all we could afford.

I think the worst part was when they got wet and your feet would slide inside them. Didn't work well for chasing or being chased by my brothers.

If I remember right- they tried to make a come back when I was teen- didn't do so hot though.

ooooohhh- I also remember cleaning the rocks out of the heels- they would always get lodged in the ridges. I prefer crocs way more!

Crocs are so much better. Mine are brown and I love them.

Oh!! I remember picking out the rocks too1 I grew up on a gravel road and it was so annoying as was playing on the rocked playground.
