Brand history
The company has its origins in 2002. Three friends from Colorado, being ardent fans of yachting, decided to develop suitable shoes for their favorite hobby: extremely comfortable, which will not slip on the wet floor and leave marks. The design was not as important as the clever combination of technological characteristics.
After a long search, Croslite foam resin was chosen as the material, perfectly meeting all the necessary requirements. After securing the rights to the material, the creators began test production, followed by the release of the first model of the clog called the Beach. Friends decided to demonstrate a trial batch at an international boat show, where all 200 pairs were sold out within a few hours!
