Crocs Classic Sandal

Crocs is a globally recognized footwear brand founded in 2002 by Scott Seamans, Lyndon 'Duke' Hanson, and George Boedecker Jr. in Colorado, United States. Initially developed as a boating shoe using a proprietary closed-cell resin material called Croslite (originally developed by Foam Creations in Canada), Crocs quickly expanded into everyday casual footwear and gained international prominence for its lightweight, slip-resistant, and water-resistant characteristics.

The brand is owned and operated by Crocs, Inc., a publicly traded multinational footwear company headquartered in Broomfield, Colorado, USA. Crocs, Inc. also owns the casual footwear brand HEYDUDE.

Manufacturing of Crocs footwear takes place via third-party contract manufacturers situated across multiple countries, primarily in Asia (such as Vietnam and China) as well as facilities historically located in Mexico, Bosnia, and Italy, before being distributed to international retail markets worldwide.
