resizing crocs

[nonzerosum]

Here's a strange question. I have a pair of crocs (Cleos) and they fit well on my narrow foot--usually crocs are way too wide. I bought another pair of cleos, same size, but they are wider. Has anyone ever successfully "shrunk" a strap on crocs, and if so, how is it done? I know you can stretch them but not sure if they can go the other way. Thought I'd ask before I returned them.

If the strap warms up in the sun- - it'll shrink.

Thanks!!! Great news. Do you think a hot hair dryer would have the same effect?

Possibly.....it's definately related to heat. We live here in Boulder where Crocs originated......the 1st year we all had them, we'd leave then outside or in the car during the summer (one friend accidentally put her son's Croc in the dryer) and they all shrunk I'd give it a try

Croc have been successfully shrunk!! 4 minutes in the dryer worked, although one is a bit short, but still wearable. The hair dryer was less successful. Thanks!!

Crocs vary in size depending on where they were manufactured!!

Canada and China both have different sizes! (I can't remember which one is bigger, but there is a difference!)


ANd yes people have successfully "Shrunk' their crocs!

I have "shrunk" my daughters in the clothes dryer - but it shrinks the entire shoe.
