The Savvy PR Of Crocs

Living in Boulder, Colorado, I am surrounded by entrepreneurs and startups, but we don't have a lot of national brands based in our small town.

I was out of the country when Heelys hit the scene, so learning about them later, as a novelty shoe line that reminded me of the KangaRoos I wore when I was five, was more of a mental pop culture note than a personal world-changing one.

Then again, I also hadn't noticed the rise of Uggs and Crocs, either; the thigh-high black boots traversing Japan's rail system I found a dozen levels more interesting, but for entirely separate reasons.
