Crocs Shoes started in Colorado, when three Boulder based founders decided to market an unusual shoe which was developed and manufactured by Foam Creations, Inc. Crocs were originally intended for boating because of its slip-resistant, superior grip and non-marking sole. By 2003 Crocs shoes were universally accepted as an all purpose shoe for comfort and fashion. Between 2003 and 2004, Crocs shoes not only acquired Foam Creations, but grew tremendously and focused on managing the growth, while maintaining control at the same time.
Crocs shoes have a large following. Nurses, who may have been the inspiration for calling them Crocs nursing shoes, doctors, gardeners, chefs and sailors are faithful to Crocs because of their legendary comfort status. However, they are not only perfect for standing around all day making a fashion statement, but also can create conversation while identifying you (the lady with the Orange Clogs!).
Crocs shoes are unisex. Men’s sizes are 2 sizes smaller than women (a woman’s 6 is a men’s 4). From virtually weightless Crocs flip flop sandals to rubber looking clog like shoes dyed every color of the rainbow to Crocs Prima ballet shoes, Crocs womens and mens shoes are anti-microbial, odor resistant, wide, have a roomy, shock absorbing contoured orthodic footbed with circulation nubs to stimulate blood flow and an extra soft double cushioning Croslite material that conforms to the wearer’s feet.
Crocs are ergonomically certified to reduce muscle fatigue up to 62% more than standing barefoot. The patented heel strap increases performance and support by keeping foot from wondering off, while the potholes offer plenty of breathing room and whoosh away dirt, debris and water. Crocs Shoes care is easy: just need to be sterilized in water and bleach, making it a low maintenance shoe. Socks are optional, but comfort and style are a definitely plus and Crocs shoes will make people’s eyes drop to your feet!
