Crocs. The rubbery, hole-filled shoe that has gone in and out of style since 2008. Well, let me tell you, folks, Crocs are making a "crocback" for good! For all the Croc haters out there, here are a few reasons why Crocs are the shoe of the century:
1. You can wear them literally anywhere.
Pouring rain? Crocs. Sunny? Crocs. Blizzard? Crocs (with socks, of course).
2.You can replace your slippers.
With what? Crocs. Slippers are too fuzzy and in the summer they can make your feet sweat. No one wants that. So, naturally, just replace them with Crocs. You can go outside in Crocs because, unlike slippers, they are water resistant and will take on the other elements of the outdoors with ease.
3.If you’re looking to find that ‘special someone,’ wear Crocs.
Though this is not scientifically proven, I’m sure many, many people can attest to Crocs being the reason they snagged that special girl or guy. What a better way to show off your assets other than Crocs? If you’re looking to really impress that cute guy in band, sports, or school, pick out some Crocs in their favorite color. If you do so, you could say you’re a ‘shoe-in’ for winning that person’s heart.
4. They come in many different colors.
Is your favorite color purple, highlighter green, yellow, orange, blue, or just plain black? Well, Crocs are for you. If you’re still a little hesitant about Croc-wearing, go pick out some camouflage Crocs. No one will ever know you’re wearing them.
5. You can accessorize!
At most Croc stores or online, you can buy little Croc pins called ‘Jibbitz.’ I know when I was a kid, my Crocs were full of princess Jibbitz. Never fear, however! You are not limited to only Disney Jibbitz. Are you a jock? Sports jibbitz. Into glamour and fashion? Sparkle Jibbitz. A ‘MURICA’ fanatic? Go get yourself some red, white, and blue Jibbitz. There are so many choices for people with a variety of interests. Mix and max to show your style!
6. Crocs mean confidence.
Long story short, if you can wear Crocs in public, you can do anything. Speaking from personal experience, your Croc-wearing might be ridiculed and made fun of at first, but soon everyone will admire your boldness and might even want a pair of Crocs for their own personal use! You’ll be a true trendsetter.
7. They go great with any outfit.
Why wear heels when you can wear Crocs? Crocs can be dressed up for formal events or dressed down for casual affairs. They are truly versatile for any situation coming your way.
8. In college? Crocs make great shower shoes.
The convenient holes in the Crocs make for a great way for water to slide on through the shoe. Made with 100% pure rubber, the traction on your Crocs will always have your back in those slippery, treacherous shower stalls. Overall, they provide great protection from any bacteria or hairballs stuck in the depths of dorm showers.
9. They make great gifts for any occasion.
Christmas? Be merry! Give Crocs. Valentines Day? Nothing says ‘I love you’ like a nice pair of Crocs. Birthday? Here’s to another trip around the sun. Enjoy your Crocs. Thanksgiving? I’m thankful for my Crocs. You get the picture.
10. Crocs are great for any age.
Crocs are baby-proof, infant-proof, teen-proof, and adult-proof. They come in all different sizes! Did the child accidentally spill something on them? No problem! It’ll wipe right off. Does the student need something comfortable after walking all day around campus? Get some Crocs! These shoes are perfect for when people of all ages need to unwind after a long day.
Overall, Crocs will change your life for the better. I know my day-to-day affairs have become a lot easier after receiving my pair of Crocs. So for all you Croc-haters out there, let there be peace. Let the Croc-wearers out there let their freak flag fly. Maybe buy a pair of your own and see what all the excitement is about. Remember, you ‘croc,’ Don’t let anyone tell you different. Crocs will change the world one day.
