With the summer season around the corner, students are ready to rock their warmer footwear, including Crocs. Crocs are considered one of the world’s 10 largest non-athletic footwear brands, but some students like to live life on the risky side and opt for the “sports” mode, with the back strap down. Crocs can be paired with any outfit and other students
go for a low key look with “chill” mode, with the back strap up for easy slide in and out activities. To make Crocs more personalized, some students choose to add Jibbitz, which are small charms of letters, images, characters, or pop culture references that can be popped into the air holes of the Crocs. As a college student, Crocs are a great way to have a ver- satile shoe which can add a pop of personality to any fashionable fit.
