Crocs

The rubbery comfortable clogs called Crocs that you either love or hate appears to be seeing their final days. Even though they are incredibly durable, the digitally informed and health-conscious millennials are concerned if the lightweight, non-restricting, easy-to-clean footwear is, in truth, bad for their feet. Some podiatrists even discourage using Crocs for long walks or all-day use because the shoes do not adequately secure the heels, and this could lead to tendinitis, nail problems, toe deformities, corns, and calluses. Even though Crocs are great for people with wide feet or those suffering from edema on their legs and ankles, people with narrow feet won’t get good support from the shoes because of their loose fit, likely causing the wearer to trip or fall. It’s also easy to copy Crocs’ simple design and younger shoppers can easily buy cheaper knockoffs from markets. However, though the company has been closing many of its retail stores, it’s making a comeback with Generation Z, the group that follows millennials. Teenagers are once again embracing the brand because it allows self-expression, particularly with last year’s Goth Crocs.
