Crocs have made a slow but steady resurgence in recent years. Ever since appearing on a Vogue list of “people, trends, and items that will rule fashion in 2017,” consumers have been more and more shameless about rocking the ugly yet comfortable footwear. The brand itself is due some credit; smart partnerships with youthful celebs like Justin Bieber and Post Malone helped it weather the storm when erstwhile King of Crocs Mario Batali got his #MeToo comeuppance in 2018.
But for Crocs the best thing for business has been the COVID-19 pandemic. Even the most bullish forecasters could not have predicted how rapidly traditional norms of style would be thrown out the window. Now, with little reason to leave ones house and interact with other people, comfort reigns supreme. And Crocs are a primarily beneficiary, with 2020 sales numbers expecting to come in at $1.38 billion, representing a 12% growth.
The demand for Crocs shows no signs of abatement. Both Bieber’s and Malone’s collaborations are constantly sold out, and Post Malone recently earned the brand some good PR by donating 10,000 pairs to frontline workers. If you want one a pair of Crocs “collabs,” bookmark this page and periodically check in to see if and when the most popular items have been restocked. But if you want a pair of the comfortable plastic clogs sooner rather than later, Amazon is replete with the company’s more traditional offerings, including my long-time favorite, a camo version:
If the twin selling points of Crocs are that they are comfortable and that these days nobody will see them, why wait to get ones endorsed by a celebrity? A more classic pair will not only suffice, but it will be cheaper as well. That seems right in line with the Crocs ethos.

School is out, the tide is in, and summer 2022 is a-go. Though the beach was one of those places you could still travel to even at the height of COVID restrictions, the repeal of mask mandates and negative testing requirements sure make the whole experience much more appealing.
Of course, going to the beach for the first time in years likely means you are in need of supplies. If that is the case, you came to the right place. In recent weeks, We Know Products has written about a variety of beach gear, including a beach table, vacuum-insulated margarita tumblers, and an American flag beach umbrella. Here is another one to add to the list: rubber tote bags.
Now, longtime WKP readers know we are partial to the clear tote bags with U.S. flag patches. But we have also heard from fans who say they like the Expersion totes for going to games and concerts, but that they also want something a little more spacious for beach trips. This rubber tote fits the bill.
As you can see from the item’s title, this bag is literally “oversized,” so you will have zero problem fitting in everything you need to haul down from your hotel room to the shore.
