You Don’t Need ‘Fashion Experts’ To Tell You To Wear Crocs

Ever since appearing on a Vogue list of “people, trends, and items that will rule fashion in 2017,” at the end of December, Crocs have reappeared as part of the national fashion debate. (If such a thing exists). The folks at Slate hope that Crocs’ inclusion is nothing but a “funny perversity” not meant to be taken seriously. The Sydney Morning Herald makes sure when discussing the trend to take a stand of its own: “There’s nothing charming about this shoe – they also smell strongly of chemicals.”

But just because Crocs appeared on an elite Vogue list – not to mention on the catwalk during London Fashion Week – doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t wear these incredibly comfortable footwear. Truth is – although Slate tries to say Crocs “disappeared from popular discourse around 2008” – Crocs have never gone out of fashion. Crocs are pleasant to wear, not too expensive and endorsed by Mario Batali. If that’s not a winning marketing strategy, I don’t know what is. If you need more, however, I have good news. For the next four days, Crocs is running a promotion: If you buy two or more clearance styles, you get an extra 50 percent off. Furthermore, all orders of $25 or more merit free shipping. I know it might not feel warm enough outside to wear these boat shoe variants, but spring will be here before you know it. Now’s the time to stock up.

There are a total of 188 pairs of Crocs in the clearance section, and I encourage you to check them all out some time in the next four days. And since they are in clearance, they are already on sale to begin with. These include some of the more classic styles:

As well as my all-time favorite:

And don’t forget that Crocs actually sell very nice shoes of the non-clog variety, such as these Chukkas:

Take advantage from fancy-pants fashion expert lists if you want, but don’t be ashamed to just wear what’s comfortable. The snobs in New York and London who think they dictate fashion don’t control you. They couldn’t stop Trump or the Brexit, after all. You do you. And do it proud.

Buy two or more clearance styles, get an extra 50 percent off

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
