Since
The word "since" usually follows a given time or date. In the introduction to this article, there is nothing other than a statement of what the company makes before the word "since" is used. I think this should be re-worded. Kdammers (talk) 16:18, 8 March 2021 (UTC)
Lead Section
In addition to the odd wording mentioned above, the second part of the lead talking about Crocs' popularity among school students is a weird inclusion, and I think it's being given undue weight by appearing in the lead. A summary of their "controversial" style as described in the "Influence on fashion and culture" section would likely fit better, but I'm unsure of how to word that in a neutral way. Overall, the lead could use some work to do a better job of summarizing the article. I'll come back and draft something when I have time, but if anyone else has suggestions or their own edits for the lead, feel free. Jhaldeman2035 (talk) 02:49, 28 June 2021 (UTC)
Why "crocs"?
Born in Boulder, Colorado, as a simple, comfortable boat shoe, today Crocs™ footwear can be found across the globe and in more than 120 styles for men, women and children.
In its founding year, 2002, Crocs™ introduced an innovative shoe made of a revolutionary material called Croslite™.
The company was given the name Crocs™ after the multi-environment, amphibious nature of Crocodiles.
