Crocs Beach

Crocs Beach are the original Crocs model. They are comfortable, cool, and mold to your feet.  They have an orthotic foot bed, advanced toe-box ventilation system,  are slip-resistant, have non-marking soles, anti-microbial and odor resistant.

Originally, developed as primarily a boating/outdoor shoe because of its slip-resistant, lightweight sole, Crocs have far exceeded their original purpose and now they are one of the most popular brands of shoes in North America.

The first Crocs were sold at a boat show in November 2002 were all 200 pairs were quickly sold out. Crocs Inc. is based out of Colorado and has grown from its humble beginning to a company that employs more than 1100 people with revenue more than $350M (as of 2006).

A popular trend is for Crocs wearers (often children) to put Jibbitz in the holes of their shoes to decorate their Crocs to their liking. Jibbitz is a success story unto itself as it was acquired by Crocs Inc. in October 2006 for $20M after the Crocs co-founder Lyndon Hanson serendipitously met the daughter of the Jibbitz founder Sheri Schmelzer at a public swimming pool in Colorado. Hanson noticed the girl had little trinkets in the holdes of her Crocs, and gave her his card to give to her mother.
