Go ahead-Walk a mile in their shoes... They are dishwasher safe too!Crocs, these “bootleg” Birkenstocks with holes in them are selling like crack! OMFG--the new Summer line is out. Ugly is getting uglier. Croc is crack! The new Hybrid un-shoe everyone in La-La land is test driving on the cat walk of everywhere.
Attention Colt Fans--100% union made, sweatshop & cruelty-free, and Vegan friendly--Group Hug. Get ready to Go Cuckoo for Coco Crocs! The shoe fits. It's not just for chicks anymore.Croc Fans are drinking the Kool-aid, but the fashion police at Hotel @nyware are still calling this accessory a war crime against everthing Nike: it's a violation against the Powell Doctrine of Overwhelming Force "Go Big or Go Home". Crocs are too user-friendly, too practical. too puppy dogs and ice cream. It's footwear jihad. Not so much puzzling as they are a mysterious counter-insurgency against the lord of the hyperbolic SWISHstica.
You can't teach an old dogma new tricks, Crocs are the Pugs of footwear--beautiful ugliness. Now it's time to expand the brand and make the t-shirt--- "But they're comfortable" line, too. No good deed should go unpunished. To be beautiful, is to suffer.Pain For Sale--The Good, the bad, the Crocenstein. so-ugly-they're-cool
Being Vegan in a non vegan world is tough but I hear that voice in my head say "I gotta have a pair".
Shoes give you street cred, Crocs, clueless bragging rights to ---so "it", you don't even know it. --- It's Not a question of "if" but "When" I buy these plastic-sweatshop free- secret sauce resin shoes. Of course this will mean I can no longer be friends with the Hamburger Helper Apple Pie world ever again. I'll be busy living happily ever after: A tree hugging, wheat grass drinking , no logo clothing wearing Crocster. I may never go to the mall again, and my whole brain could turn an inconvenient Green.
The Men on Film are on the "hated it" side...
There's a website called Ihatecrocs.com . Mimmi, a nurse
from Stockholm, says the Swedes are banning them! No Crocs for Blue-Eyed Docs---and there is even a fellow google blogspotter documenting the horrors of the rubber shoes at crocaccidents. I think 
Nike, the subversive un-radical, faceless Nike. is behind it all.

There is no stopping Crocs---full speed ahead despite the bad weather. Even Bill Cosby, who saved the world, one Jello shot at a time, wears them. He graduated from CMU this week with a perfect 4.0 blood alcohol level, majoring in Grey Goose Vodka. In a way, Cos is the perfect Spokesmodel for Crocs- remember his famous comments about parents doing the darndest things, sleepwalking through the consumer desert of life, while Nike hijacked their hoop dreams of ghetto cool--- "“They are buying things for kids—$500 sneakers for what? And won’t spend $200 for ‘Hooked on Phonics.’” or $40 bucks for Crocs...
Nike, lord of the SWISHstica too began as a fad/niche play. And you know what happened to us-we all became walking Nike ads. Just ask the no logo people. Becoming a Crocs ad is about bringing back the love. In the spirit of I'd like to teach the world to sing.
Crocs-the patron saint of plastic is "Made In China". and are sweatshop free... Things that make you go hmmm...Is this a design that helps solve the world's poor problems--- You know, "The axis of evil"---the 2 billion people on the planet who make less than $2 bucks a day? Please advise. ---2 billion customers in the world are waiting for a $2 pair of eyeglasses, a $10 solar lantern and a $100 house..and a decent pair of shoes for the barefoot poor.(Did you know that these kids get 90 percent of their diseases through their feet)
Starbucks will be the next McDonald's,and Crocs will be not only the next Nike, but the next shoes with soul. Whose do you wanna wear?
It's hard to deal with everywhere----but Crocs are everywhere. Uggs are so-o-o-o over...Now there are those little pins and buttons , started by SAHM Sheri Schmelzer. they're called Jibbitz. There are over 900 designs, from sports teams (Colts, Raiders) to cartoon characters (Disney) you buy to personalize your Crocs.
Docksiders, are a Lacoste preppy "must have" Who can make sense out of Crocs, the other white meat Is it a want or a need? It's not just footwear for the cast of Grey's Anatomy and Scrubs. NHL Flyers' Peter Forsberg, andPittsburgh's Mario Lemieux wear them in their team colors too.

Is this a r(E)volution ? The three P's--Porn, Poker and Pills were yesterdays most searched items for the three C's crowd-cash, condos and cars---now it's Crocs. The old becomes the new--- po' Wicker Patio Furniture is now Classic Bamboo -Rattan high-end Not So Far East; and Crocs, once the poor kids Jelly Wellies has achieved Pure Genius Levi Denim Status.
Shift happens.Crocs and mocks-Crocs sell for about $40 a pair. They cost about a $1 buck to make-That's a 4000% markup. Imitation Crocs — let’s call them “mocks” — are priced between about $10 and $15. Wal Mat has a knock off line---Massage In Aisle 7: Whole Foods Opens Spa, now Crocs in Aisle 2....At an Organic Super Market? Yep, After all, Who ever thought you could eat at a gas station or time-shift (TIVO) the Super Bowl?
Crocs went public in February 2006 and has not looked backward since. The market capitalization has just topped the $3 billion mark on the heels of the recent 3 quarters results that were outstanding. Revenues for 2007 are now expected at nearly $700 million and 2008 revenues could top $950 million. The results opened the eyes of many skeptics and non-believers as this company is progressing from the fad/ niche category to becoming another full-blown phenomenon.
The company has a funky, cool line of shoes that appeal to almost every demographic set, and at affordable price points,ranging from $29.99 to $59.99. The shoes come in bright rainbow colors and are actually quite comfortable. Crocs shoes are manufactured from a proprietary resin called Croslite. Crocs has also begun to go north of the ankle with a new line of t-shirts, back-packs and many other neat, innovative products. To become a full-grown multi-billion dollar market cap company, Crocs must include product variation and innovation.This company appears poised to do exactly that.
Crocs has a major advantage that Nike did not back in the 1970's: a dynamic, commerce-generating web site. Growing revenues and branding are two goals of the web site as well as customer-gathering data. Crocs currently distributes its products in over 24,000 retailers of which more than half are outside the United States. International sales are very important as they carry a higher average selling price. Crocs was smart to "globalize" its brand early in its development cycle.
