The lawsuit said Crocs engaged in false advertising, negligent misrepresentation, unfair, unlawful, deceptive trade practices, and breach of warranties.

This class action lawsuit discussed the number of shoe lines made of the Croslite material under Crocs. It also stated that Chase markets its products as outdoor and water shoes.

Crocs failed to disclose that the products would shrink and become unwearable by customers if exposed to hot, sunny, and wet environments like rivers, pools, and lakes.

Customers made thousands of complaints regarding shrinkage problems, while Crocs refused to recall the product and warned consumers of the problem with the shrinking material.

The lawsuit claims the company is aware its Croslite products shrink when exposed to the elements. It made several complaints on Croc’s website, like the purchase replacing the pair of Crocs that shrunk.

The lawsuit mentioned that selling these shoes with a defect makes the company more profitable because it causes customers to buy more products.

Crocs Inc. is a Broomfield, Colorado-based company that sells Broomfield Colorado-based company selling for about $45 for men and women.  Children’s shoes are selling for around $30. According to one of the reports, Crocks sold 18.9 million pairs of shoes in 2020.
