It all started when three Boulder, Colorado based founders decided to develop and market an innovative type of footwear called CROCS shoes.
Originally, CROCS were intended as a boating/outdoor shoe because of its slip-resistant, non-marking sole. By 2003 CROCS had become a bona-fide phenomenon, universally accepted as an all purpose shoe for comfort and fashion.
From 2003-2004 CROCS focused on accommodating our remarkable growth while maintaining control. We have expanded our product line, added warehouses and shipping programs for speedy assembly and delivery, hired a senior management team and acquired Foam Creations.
Today, CROCS are available all over the world and on the internet as we continue to significantly expand all aspects of our business.

Despite our rapid success, we still stand behind the core values of CROCS Footwear. We are committed to making a lightweight, comfortable, slip-resistant, fashionable and functional shoe, which can be produced quickly and at an affordable price to our customers. We thank you for your support and look forward to providing you with exciting new CROCS designs in the years to come.
Why name a shoe CROCS?
We came up with the name CROCS because crocodiles are tough and strong animals with no natural predators. Crocodiles are equally good in land and water and live for a very long time, a great description of our CROCS shoes!
Of what material are CROCS made?
A material we call Proprietary Closed Cell Resin (PCCR) which is NOT plastic NOR rubber. PCCR is closed-cell in nature and anti-microbial, which virtually eliminates odor.
Top reasons you gotta have `em:
° Really soft and so super comfortable that it molds to your feet
° Barely there, weighing only 6 ounces
° Vented so air passes through, keeping your feet cool
And even more reasons:
° Non-marking, slip-resistant soles
° Bacteria and odor resistant
° Ultra-hip Italian design
° Port holes allows water and sand to pass through
° Can be sterilized with water and bleach
° Easy maintenance, just wipe clean
° Orthotic molded foot bed for ultimate comfort and support
