So I get home all ready to take some pics of my Crocs. They're where I left 'em but the fucking strap is off. I see the fucking dog chewed the fucking Velcro part off. I discuss this with him rather emphatically that this is unacceptable behavior. I bought these so he could have my old slippers that he had previously enjoyed.









I check online to see if they replace the straps & find they do but I also know I'm going to gerryrig something so the strap will still work. Luckily there is about an eighth inch of Velcro left to attach something. I was thinking my universal shoe favorite - the twist tie toys come with when I remembered I had some pipe strapping. I thought it was green & figured I'd never find it but praise Rhoda I did. And it was BLACK. My first attempt at riveting was a failure because the plastic pipe strapping wouldn't hold the rivet. I needed a tiny washer. I know I wanted to buy rivet washers & I might have but I couldn't fucking find 'em if I did. This led to a long search for something that would be strong enough to hold the rivet yet small enough to not fuck with my foot. I finally came up with a small nut which actually was one of my first choices. I just couldn't find anything better. The nut forced me to change heads on my rivet tool & use a bigger rivet but that's not pertinent to the story.

I fixed the strap, emailed Crocs for some replacements & tooks some pics:
