I've never worn a pair, but they're definitely not extinct.
In fact, they're VERY POPULAR out here in the Poconos of Pennsylvania.
My three children all own at least one pair each.
When I had my own business, I sold a type of shoe just like the Crocs (I was working in VA Hospitals), and the doctors and nurses (especially the nurses) used to buy them like crazy (especially since I had them in a variety of colors).
They look comfortable, but I'm not really into wearing open shoes.
Yep, just a black sneaker type of guy...

I dont have any
but I had the knock offs of shoes that had holes in them, pink...very comfortable, and light wore them gardening
but mum started wearing them and she ruined them as they had a heel and squashed the back part of the heel so she could slip them on
and they got all ripped up so I had to chuck them out
now I have hunter clogs, they are sturdier and dont have the back part so can just slip on, but also they are heavier and they dont have holes in them
and mum has sloggers I think, that she kinda was given. by my aunty
I have not worn crocs, but there was also another knock off called frogs that looked very similar

Jibbitz, which are basically charms which go into those holes, are very popular out here as well.
My children have some of those, too.

I supoose it depends on your hospital policy
I dont work in one, but I could ask my brother, pretty sure he doesnt wear crocs but then, hes doctor not a nurse
I think he wears closed in leather shoes
or doc martens (supposedly have bouncy soles)
but I saw there were crocs with no holes in them for bistro and hospitality workers
crocs were originally a boat shoe
and then theres socks vs no socks
I had to wear special safety shoes with steel toe and boots for gardening in case accidentally put a spade in my foot...but that was for work, and they were heavy
I think nurses would go for slip on skechers now
definitely laces are a pain for shoes. I hate laces.

Ever live somewhere where it rains and/or floods a lot? Shoes that don't absorb water, like sandals or crocs, are essential. It's not convenient or practical to wear wet shoes or have to dry your shoes every day. Crocs are good for some climates, imho, but if someone lives somewhere where it doesn't even flood often it's a bit tacky, but there's nothing wrong with wearing them. Everyone has their own style.
