Crocs

Holey foam footwear

Crocs is a brand of foam clog shoes with a distinctive perforated design, known for being lightweight, waterproof, and polarizing in style.

The name plays on crocodile, reflected in the company's reptile logo.

Once dismissed as ugly, they've cycled between fashion punchline and ironic streetwear staple: I wear my Crocs unironically now.
