Years ago circa 2002 my friend started selling what are now known as crocs from a different company called Holey Soles. We did street fairs and sold almost none for months. People thought they were the ugliest things they ever saw and refused to pay $25,(Now $59!) After a while we gave up and we couldn't even give them away!! Cut to today where Crocs is a billion dollar company. I found this pair unworn in my closet! Your getting a part of history. I looked it up to see which company came first but I guess the courts decided that!!! One of kind.. Rare!!! Literally identical to Crocs!! (But I think a little more shiny!
Here's the history...
Crocs, Inc. introduced the first shoe known as Crocs in 2002, allegedly before Holey Soles was founded. Here is a timeline of the two companies: 2002: Crocs debuts. After acquiring a design for a foam clog from Canadian manufacturer Foam Creations, Crocs, Inc. was founded and debuted its "Beach" model at the Fort Lauderdale Boat Show in 2002. 2002: Holey Soles is founded. The company Holey Soles (later renamed Holey's) was also founded in 2002 in Vancouver, Canada, by Anne Rosenberg, who began distributing a foam clog from a Canadian manufacturer. 2004: Holey Soles restructures. In 2004, Joyce Groote bought the company and began producing her own clog models in China.2010: Lawsuit settles debate. In 2010, Crocs won a patent lawsuit against Holey Soles, with a court ruling that HS products bore a "substantial resemblance" to the orig design
