Crocs™ are named after crocodiles, robust reptiles who fair equally well in both water and on land. “These qualities and characteristics are inherent to Crocs™ footwear as well, ” says Crocs Inc. Crocs™ are the only branded footwear made from Croslite™, a proprietary closed cell resin that has revolutionized the footwear industry with its unsurpassed comfort and support. There is a selection of Crocs™ shoes for every member of the family from kids to grandparents. Crocs™ also offers a full selection of shoes for working professionals.
The beach model was the original Crocs™ style and Crocs™ has since expanded to offer more than 50 styles, which are available in a range of bold hues.

The focus of today’s article is on the advantages of wearing Croc shoes when you are pregnant. Many Ob-Gyn’s, who have been wearing Crocs™ in surgery along with other medical professionals including nurses and doctors, are recommending Crocs™ to their pregnant patients because they have some very unique characteristics which make them ideal for the mama-to-be. As your belly grows, your center of gravity shifts, causing you to feel more unstable. In addition, the weight that you gain during pregnancy puts extra stress and strain on your joints. Bending down can be a real challenge. Swollen feet can make squeezing into your shoes an impossible task. Your body temperature is naturally raised and finding shoes that are airy, light and breeze that are also odor resistant and anti-microbial can be extremely challenging. Enter Crocs™: the unique shoe that helps keep you comfy and active during your pregnancy. The roomy design lends itself perfectly to feet which are prone to swelling. The easy sizing chart makes selecting the correct size simple and quick! Ergonomically certified to significantly reduce fatigue during use, Crocs™ can be a god-send to pregnant women who are dealing with typical aches, pains and loss of energy and stamina. Crocs™ are designed with shock-absorbing properties to minimize load on feet, lower legs, knees, hips and lower back. Crocs™ boast a supportive foot base with a built-in arch support and provides the wearer with an Orthotic heel support and protects the heels. Crocs™ have a specially designed heel strap, to keep the shoe on your foot. The strap can be stretched until it fits your perfectly! You also have the option to roll the strap forward on the clog models, which will make slipping them on even easier-all without bending down. The port holes on many models filter air, sand and water and the ventilation will keep you cool and comfortable. Crocs™ have circulation nubs which stimulate circulation and provide the wearer with a gentle massage. Crocs™ conforms to ASTM slip resistant standards. Crocs™ should not fit like other shoes.

We distributed Crocs™ in the beach and endeavor styles (courtesy of Crocs, Inc.) to 2 pregnant ladies. Here are some comments:
“Being a 7 month pregnant, working professional who is on my feet all day, hasn’t been easy. When me feet started to swell, I was distraught that I could no longer squeeze my feet into most of my work shoes! I really didn’t have the budget to splurge on new shoes, and I was becoming quite desperate and very uncomfortable. During the day, I was distracted from my work, because I my feet were aching! I was excited to receive 2 pairs of crocs to test in the endeavor style. When they arrived, I marveled at how lightweight they were. The endeavor style has a closed toe with ventilation on the sides. I was thrilled to give them a try the very next day! It was SUCH a relief to have a roomy shoe that felt comfortable from the moment that I put it on and accommodated my swollen feet beautifully. The shoes are soft and cushy and oh so comfy! I really liked the fact that they are anti-microbial and odor-resistant, because I sweat a LOT. They are super easy to clean which means it takes me less time to get ready in the morning. I received many compliments from my colleagues who all wanted to buy their own! Bending down is becoming a chore for me and I really love how I can just slip my feet into the crocs, without much effort at all. The straps hold the crocs firmly on my feet and I don’t have to worry about them falling off, as with other clogs on the market. The circulation nubs provide my feet with a massage as I work, which feels heavenly. Carrying an extra 20 plus pounds on my small frame isn’t fun, and my previous work shoes were heavy, adding to the weight. These crocs are so light, I feel like I am walking on a cloud and my husband. Thank you crocs!”
“I have just entered my third trimester and am I pregnant with twins! I am a stay at home mommy to a toddler who is 2. Chasing my toddler while being pregnant with twins isn’t easy! I run out of steam pretty fast The weather has finally warmed up and I was really looking forward to wearing my summer sandals. I was really disappointed when none of sandals fit me anymore! I didn’t experience much feet swelling with my first pregnancy, so this was an unexpected surprise. I was really pleased to be able to test out the beach styles and received 2 pairs in the mail. I had heard about crocs before, but never tried any. I received instructions about how I could customize my shoe by stretching the strap and was able to do this easily. I put my toddler in his stroller and headed out on a short walk around the block. I couldn’t get over how light and airy these shoes felt. I really LOVED the ventilation holes which were on the top of the shoes and the sides of the shoe, keeping me cool. The molded footbed and built-in arch support was fabulous and I felt a renewed sense of energy that I thought was gone forever! The next day we headed to the beach and the Crocs faired just as well on the sand! What a pleasure to be able to run them under the shower at the beach before heading back home.Thank you”
When its time to retire your Crocs™, you can give back your worn-out Crocs™ shoes to be recycled into new shoes and they will be donated to people in need around the world. Did you know there are over 1.2 billion people worldwide that can’t afford shoes and have to walk many miles a day barefoot? The program is called “Soles United” and was launched by Crocs, Inc. in January of 2008. It is the first-of-its-kind recycled footwear donation program. Through the Soles United recycling process, donated Crocs™ shoes are sorted, cleaned, ground into new material, and manufactured into new recycled shoes. We applaud Crocs, Inc. for this program, which will no doubt change the lives of millions of people worldwide. To learn more and few a video detailing this program, please visit: www.solesunited.com
