No, your eyes are not deceiving you. Brooke Shields totally pulled off Crocs at the Tony Awards last night.(Getty Images)
If you follow actress Brooke Shields on Instagram, then you know she recently underwent surgery on not one, but two of her toes. Miraculously, just two days after posting a photo of her booted feet, Shields was strutting her stuff at the Tony Awards in a stunning sequin yellow gown ... and matching Crocs. Yes, you read that right. The icon herself was snapped wearing classic Crocs clogs!
Our best guess on the exact color Crocs Shields wore on the red carpet? The brand's yellow butter hue. Sadly, the shade is in short supply all across the internet, but Amazon has the comfy slip-ons in several other colors you can grab starting at just $25.
If you're having trouble finding your preferred color-size combo at Amazon, head over to the Crocs website. The retailer has many options available, some of which are also on sale for less than $40. The neutral "bone" shade shown here is a versatile pick that you can wear with everything this summer.
For a while, toddlers, gardeners and cooks were typically the only people you'd ever spot wearing the vibrant rubber clogs in public. These days, however? Everyone wears Crocs. Not only are they the shoe of choice for teens and cool young folk, but even fashionistas like Margot Robbie and Heidi Klum have been seen wearing them. Could Shields be onto something, making them more mainstream on the red carpet? Only time will tell.
While most of us don't often have occasion to get as glammed up as Shields did this weekend, we can all absolutely get behind needing comfortable shoes for our everyday lives. If those shoes happen to be easy-on, easy-off, breathable and waterproof? Even better! That's what makes Crocs such an appealing pick, especially during the summer months. The simple design is lightweight yet supportive. The holes allow fresh air to pass through so your feet don't sweat and you can wipe dirt off like it's nothing with a wet cloth.
It's no wonder that shoppers around the internet consistently talk about their love of Crocs. On Amazon, the classic clogs have 4.7 out of 5 stars and more than 52,000 five-star ratings.
"Let me start by saying I was one of those that never was on the Crocs Train," one shopper who called the clogs "perfect" began their review. "I saw these and decided to try them. They fit perfectly with no socks on. Before I ordered, I almost went the cheap route and bought a knockoff and I'm so glad I didn't! These are so comfy!"
Another shopper who purchased the shoes for her spouse wrote, "My husband loves them. He uses them for our pool and camping. [They are] very well made, lightweight, easy to clean and comfortable."
One thing to note before purchasing your own pair of Crocs? Sizing can be tricky.
"Make sure you size up when ordering these Crocs," one person explained. "I normally wear a Women's 10 / Men's 8 in Crocs but I had to reorder a size larger as this particular style of Crocs runs smaller than the usual sizing."
