You could push gurneys through the ER all day or stand by the bedside of patients for hours and your feet would never know the difference — we mean it. Nearly all styles of Crocs hold a special place in the hearts of healthcare workers for their comfort and easy-to-clean materials (make sure to check out the miniature stethoscope Jibbitz too). The “On The Clock” clogs offer additional thoughtful design details like extra arch support and breathable, removable foot liners that make them ideal for scooting around hospital hallways. Notably, they feature the proprietary LiteRide material, which is lighter and softer than the resin material that makes up Croslite.What testers say: “These shoes are amazing, I groom dogs so I am constantly getting splashed/wet from dealing with dogs and these keep my feet dry all day, they are also super comfy, I would definitely recommend them, I work in a wet environment and the non-slip bottoms work super well!”

Crocs Dylan Clogs Origin of release: Released in the summer of 2023

Crocs Dylan Clogs
Origin of release: Released in the summer of 2023
Size range: Women’s 6 to 12; men’s 4 to 17
Colorways: Black, Stucco, Espresso, Cognac, Quartz, and more
Materials: Croslite upper; synthetic sole
Special features: Deep heel cup
On Sale 25% off

Crocs debuted the Dylan Clog in the summer of 2023 and they’ve quickly become one of the best clogs for women. Notably, they ditch Crocs’ signature calling card, the perforated holes and the bling that accessories them, in favor of a sleek, understated solid-colored shoe.The four matte monochromatic colorways mimic the look of full-grain leather. But instead of using precious suede, they feature one single piece of Croc’s signature and sturdy synthetic material, so they’re actually able to withstand rainy or cold weather. FashionTok can’t get enough, as videos with thousands of views show users styling them with everything from jeans and shorts, to elevating clogs with skirts and dresses. And, aside from just plain looking good, the Dylan Clog has a couple of other thoughtful design details, such as extra cushioning in its deep heel cup, making them a Crocs’ answer to recovery slides, which bodes well for those with plantar fasciitis.

What testers say: “I teach every day. These are PHENOMENAL! They are comfy and easy to wear, yet they add style to any outfit. Cannot go wrong with this purchase!”

Crocs original shoe, based around the silhouette that debuted in 2002


Crocs Classic Clogs
Origin of release: Crocs original shoe, based around the silhouette that debuted in 2002
Size range: Women’s 6 to 12; men’s 4 to 15
Colorways: Black, White, Moonlight, Lavender, Taffy Pink, and more
Materials: Synthetic upper, lining, and sole
Special features: Pivoting heel straps

Behold, the silhouette that started a revolution and launched dozens of killer limited edition collaborations, including sweet brand partnerships with Cinnamon Toast Crunch and A-list endorsements from celebrities like Post Malone and SZA. And, naturally, it had its Barbie moment, too. The Classic Clog is currently available in a wide selection of colors and prints, yet, no matter how many makeovers the humble style receives, we’ll always lean on its ability to keep our tired feet happy and well-supported. In fact, the roomy interior is why they’re some of the best Crocs for wide feet.There’s a good reason we consistently consider them one of the best work shoes for women and men, too, as their cushioned footbed, slip-resistant sole tread, secure heel strap, and ultra-lightweight materials make them safe, comfortable, and even stylish, for every environment.

What testers say: “This is my first pair of Crocs but will not be my last! I love these shoes. They are super comfortable and easy to slip on and go!”

The 13 Best Crocs Shoes to Buy Right Now

Updated July 30, 2024: This guide to the best Crocs shoes was updated with new product releases, Crocs FAQs, 2024 Crocs shoe trends, and Crocs shoe outfit ideas.

Crocs clogs are some of the most iconic shoes in all of footwear. The most comfortable Crocs styles have expanded to fit all kinds of functions and occasions, including sandals, boots, slides, and everything in between, while providing plush cushioning, slip-on convenience, and affordable price points that come in handy year-round, from travel to back-to-school shopping.

Some of Crocs’ imaginative designs are so buzzy, so bold, and so willing to go where no shoe has gone before that they sell out almost immediately. This is the case with the styles featured in Simone Rocha’s Crocs collaboration in 2024, which debuted at London Fashion Week with jewel Jibbitz adornments, or the scented Crocs X Bath & Body Works sandal line that fronted a trendy gingham pattern. Other drops, like the fan-favorite Lightning McQueen Crocs, Hello Kitty collection, or Spider-Man Crocs, added a dose of heart-warming nostalgia to function-forward footwear.

Still, further evidence from superstar-sized collaborations with brands like Mattel (Barbie, anyone?) and celebs such as Paris Hilton, Bad Bunny, Luke Combs, Jacob Collier, and SZA show that Crocs has infiltrated the cool crowd. The once-humble boating shoe dipped its perforated toe into the luxury fashion space with cutting-edge designer team-ups from Balenciaga to Kurt Geiger and Christian Cowan. From there, Crocs made their way onto the red carpet. For instance, supermodel Brooke Shields and Justin Bieber have both posed for cameras in signature yellow Classic Clogs. And, Bieber, who collaborated with Crocs in 2020 and 2021, famously went viral in 2023 for wearing his Jibbitz-adorned yellow Clogs as he rode a CitiBike around New York City.

Name-dropping aside, another reason for Crocs’ upward trajectory is the general shift to more casual fashion, as evidenced by jeans in the office and trends leaning into oversized silhouettes versus tailored fits. As fashion leaned into loungewear in the early years of the pandemic, comfy Crocs followed suit as a wardrobe essential. Crocs went on to win Footwear News Awards for 2020’s Brand of the Year, while the Crocs Classic Clog was crowned FN’s 2021 Shoe of the Year — not to mention the Salehe Bembury x Crocs collaboration, which just dropped two new Saru Clog colorways — also earned FN’s 2023 Collection of the Year Award.

If you’re fed up with blisters and toe-crunching pointed toes, it’s hard to resist the cushioned footbeds and wide rounded toes inherent to Crocs styles. These features also make them a choice pick among those with wide feet or other common foot concerns like bunions and plantar fasciitis. Whether in workplace-appropriate attire, as seen in the Crocs At Work line, or as footwear that wears well in every season, you’d be hard-pressed to find a function Crocs doesn’t make a shoe for. Chief among the reasons Crocs has become the generation-defining footwear brand is its prowess in appealing to every kind of shoe lover, which starts in its impressive catalog of designs and follows through with its inclusive style sizing for all genders. Plus, Crocs continues to lead shoe trends with comfort-focused iterations of fashionable silhouettes, from Mary Jane shoes to fisherman sandals and even platform pumps.

If you’re a runner, you’ve likely pledged loyalty to adidas running shoes after finding a sent-from-the-high-heavens sneaker. In 2024, adidas has set new standards for performance by upgrading its most popular models through extensive research and development for professional and novice runners alike. No matter if you’re all-in for the best adidas shoes or if you’re aiming to find an innovative and supportive sneaker for your next race, look no further: We’ve gathered the best adidas running shoes for all foot types, terrains, foot types, and distances.

The sneaker experts at the Three Stripes brand have been hard at work, collaborating with athletes and foot experts alike to roll out new running technology to launch your strides into hyperdrive. adidas has introduced a wealth of competitive innovation based in athlete data and training tests — like adaptive Strung uppers and adidas’ marathon-winning super shoes. “Recently we had more than 30 of our top athletes staying with us, where it was about going deeper on that idea of driving running performance forward by finding the best energy return formula possible in that space,” Marc Makowski, senior vice president of creative direction and innovation at adidas, previously told Footwear News. “Ultimately, we’re not here to promote a technology,” he said. “We’re here to promote a better sporting experience.”

The sneaker authority also continues to run it back and upgrade cult-favorite sneaker models with transformative improvements, like the newly-released Ultraboost 5X, Adizero SL2, and Adizero Boston 12 running shoes, which offer much more energy response, re-engineered mesh uppers, and even lighter constructions than their famous predecessors. More additions to the adidas running shoe family include the Duramo SL, an excellent and affordable daily runner, the Supernova Rise, and the Adistar 3, all of which come equipped with thick and lightweight cushioning and extremely durable Adiwear outsoles designed for high-abrasion activity, like long-distance runs and races.

adidas’ champion-level running shoes range from $60 to $300, at adidas.com, so no matter your speed or budget, the brand has a running shoe for you. Scroll below to view our FN editors’ roundup of the best adidas running shoe selections for 2024 to upgrade or kickstart your runs. On your marks, get set…

Editor’s Choice: Top adidas Running Shoes of 2024

Choosing the right running shoe for you is an entirely personal process. Not only does it depend on your chosen type of running, from daily jogs to marathon racing, but your running shoe should also align with your terrain, foot type, and overall support needs. adidas offers a slew of top running shoes for all the above, so we selected our top three sneaker models that are superlative for different running requirements. Below, our Editor’s Choice recommendations that’ll launch you to the finish line in stride:

  • adidas Adizero Adios Pro 3 Running Shoes: This adidas super shoes should wear a cape for its race day performance. Its superpowers know no bounds — from its Energy Rod skeletal system that provides supreme stability and energy return to its grippy rubber outsoles that stick the landing every time. It also supports proper foot alignment through intense races and is designed to be exceptionally breathable with durable mesh uppers.
  • adidas Ultraboost 5X Running Shoes: If you’re a fan of adidas signature Ultraboost sneaker, slip into this brand new model that embodies everything you love about the line. Made even lighter than its predecessors with re-engineered Lightboost midsoles, it now comes with adidas’ Torsion system, which brings more underfoot support, along with adaptive Primeknit uppers for increased breathability.
  • adidas Adizero SL2 Running Shoes: The new Adizero SL2 running shoe is the perfect daily runner with performance-level features — and comes at a steal-worthy price point. It boasts a lighter weight and higher energy return than the previous Adizero SL, thanks to full-length Lightstrike Pro midsole cushioning and carbon fiber plates akin to the best super shoes on the market.

EXCLUSIVE: JD Sports Is Now the First Global Retail Partner for Nike’s Connected Membership Program

JD Sports, Nike, Connected Membership, JD, sneakers, sneaker store, shoes

JD Sports has expanded the popular Nike loyalty program to its stores in the U.S.

JD Sports is taking its relationship with Nike to the next level.

The UK-based retailer said on Friday that it has extended its retail partnership with the athletic brand to offer the Nike Connected Membership program to its U.S. customers.

This move makes JD the sportswear giant’s first global partner for the popular loyalty rewards program after successfully launching in the UK in 2022, the company said.

With this expansion, JD’s U.S. customers now have access to select Nike member-only footwear and apparel when they opt to link their JD Status and Nike Membership accounts through JD’s website or mobile app. By linking their accounts, customers can unlock an instant reward bonus, curated collections and early access to select Nike member products, as well as exclusive experiences and services, JD said.

“This partnership cements JD’s position as the leading global omnichannel retailer of sports fashion brands, providing our extremely brand conscious customers with the products they want most across footwear and apparel,” Schultz said. “We want our customers to shop with JD knowing they are accessing the very best of what our partner brands have to offer, giving them the confidence that they are at the forefront of the trends shaping sports fashion.”

The announcement follows the success of JD’s Status loyalty program rollout in the U.S., which allows customers to earn points to use on a variety of benefits including “Status Cash” towards future purchases, access to the hottest drops before they launch with Status exclusive access, unique experiences and more.

JD said that its loyalty program now has 5.1 million active members in the U.S., with loyalty members shopping twice as regularly with JD as non-loyalty customers. JD Status – which was rolled out in the UK in October 2023 – is also launching across Europe this summer.

The membership extension also comes as JD makes more investment in North America – a key strategic growth territory for the business. In July, JD Sports completed its acquisition of Birmingham, Ala.-based retailer Hibbett. The British sneaker and athletics giant first announced its plans to acquire Hibbett on April 23 as part of its efforts to dig deeper into the U.S. market in a deal with an enterprise value of $1.11 billion.

Hibbett, which is now an official part of JD’s growing sports empire, rolled out its membership program with Nike in October, following a similar program Nike inked with Dick’s Sporting Goods in 2021.

In its full year results in May, JD reported that revenue in North America increased 8.4 percent to 3.4 billion pounds in fiscal 2024. This outperformance in sales in the region was built upon larger and better-invested stores, a broader sales mix and compelling brand partner relationships, the company said. Overall, JD Sports reported a total revenue of 10.4 billion pounds in fiscal 2024, an increase of 2.7 percent compared to the same 52-week period in 2023.
