From this article Got Crocs? Be careful on the escalator:
“At rail stations and shopping malls around the world, reports are popping up of people, particularly young children, getting their toes caught in escalators. The one common theme seems to be the clunky soft-soled clogs known by the name of the most popular brand, Crocs.”
And this:
“In Singapore, a 2-year-old girl wearing rubber clogs — it's unclear what brand — had her big toe completely ripped off in an escalator accident last year, according to local media reports.
And at the Atlanta airport, a 3-year-old boy wearing Crocs suffered a deep gash across the top of his toes in June. That was one of seven shoe entrapments at the airport since May 1, and all but two of them involved Crocs, said Roy Springer, operations manager for the company that runs the airport terminal.”
From the article it appears that escalators together with soft rubber soled shoes are a problem – not solely Crocs (No pun intended). I like soft soled shoe. I prefer to think of it as an escalator problem. Be careful of escalators.
