It’s big news in the world of Crocs right now that the insanely popular Lightning McQueen and Mater shoes from Cars have been re-released. The shoes had a cult-like following and were constantly sold out for the last few years. And in even better news for Cars fans, the Lightning McQueen shoes are on sale right now. Did I mention they light up and that my 19-year-old was so desperate for a pair that she ran out and bought them immediately? Ka-chow.
And while the Cars shoes are very popular, if you’re on a budget, you might not want to commit to a specific character as kids tend to change their minds frequently. In that case, grab an on-sale pair in a solid color, and add some some Jibbitz Charms that can be easily swapped out depending on their mood that day.
While some people consider Crocs ugly, I think they are pretty playful (especially for kids) and really practical. They make a great summer shoe option for kids as they are easily washable (hello, mud!), and water-resistant for beach or pool days. The classic clog style has plenty of ventilation holes to help prevent them from getting too sweaty, and the closed-toe protects their tiny feet, which is key for toddlers just learning to walk.
The textured insole is designed to keep feet from slipping around, but for active kids, make sure to put the “sport mode” strap around their heel on the clogs to keep them from sliding off.
I scoured our top retailers to find the best deals on Crocs, so that your kids can enjoy some very happy feet this summer at prices up to half off. These Mickey Mouse clogs are $40, and a perfect option for those long days walking around Disney in the summer heat. For chilly nights, grab these slippers that are 50% off right now. I love that they have a hard bottom so they can wear them indoors or outdoors—they’d be ideal for a camping trip! Or, snag these Bayaband sandals (they come in blue or pink) while they are only $25 for your next beach day.
