For a while here in LA they were as ubiquitous among the crunchy granola set as Uggs on bare-legged teens in short skirts at The Grove, and now Crocs have been caught in a dirty lie, reports TreeHugger. They said their shoes, made of PCCR, were "antimicrobial." And, oops, they aren't. "After discovering the false claim, the EPA has told the company pay $230,000 'to resolve cases involving unsubstantiated antimicrobial claims for several types of its shoes,' as well as remove the language from its packaging." Suddenly the uncool got even less cool. Sorry, Crocs. more ›

In fact, the shoes formerly known as thongs "can cause arch, ankle, hip and back injuries as well as cancer, migraines, herpes and warts." Seeden explains that the findings came from a scientific study that determined the "flip-flops cause the muscles in the top and bottom of your feet to work against each other, resulting in immediate death." Okay, maybe not immediate death, but most definitely physical strain. So are those shoes many of us men, women, and children in Los Angeles love almost year-'round really "more dangerous than an asbestos martini?" Should we all throw our flip-flops out, or caution to the wind? more ›
