Day 011 : Crocs


At times, we have to spend more money to get something comfy. I hope that will the case for most of us, not to chase over the brand instead. I am honestly not a brand freak but I do at times spend a little more on branded stuffs for the quality and comfortability.

Well, it should be that way though.

Since I am sharing my friend's crocs thingy with his red socks, perhaps we should do some reading about it. Here some history of CROCS taken from Crocs Malaysia. Happy reading - ooh and if you are up for some shopping, you can shop online there too.


It all started in July 2002, in Boulder , Colorado when George Boedecker, Scott Seamans and Duke Hanson decided to market an unusual shoe developed and manufactured by Foam Creations, Inc.
Originally intended as a boating/outdoor shoe because of its slip-resistant, non-marking sole, Crocs™ introduced it’s first Beach Model in November 2002 at the Florida Boat Show and sold out in two days. From there, popularity mushroomed. Sales poured in. 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 expanded our product line, added a warehouse and a shipping operation 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 to the core values of Crocs Footwear. We are committed to making a lightweight, comfortable, slip-resistant, fashionable and functional shoe that can be produced quickly and at an affordable cost 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.
