Crocs™-KCC Mall of GenSan opens soon
Yes, you are not dreaming!
Crocs™, that weird-looking footwear that has spurned a thousand and one jokes and yet is so uber fashionable that people in the know just gotta have a pair, is landing in the shores of General Santos City!
- Crocs™
While negotiating the kilometer-long span of KCC Mall of GenSan‘s ground floor yesterday, Bariles noticed a small sign plastered at the plywood-covered frontage of one of the mal’s soon-to-open stalls. The sign read, “OPENING SOON: CROCS“.
For the uninitiated, Crocs™, is one of the most in-demand imported footwear among fashionistas today, aside from the Brazilian flip-flops, Havaianas, featured here last month. It is actually an American brand founded in July 2002 in Boulder, Colorado.
Crocs™ was meant just to be a boating and outdoor shoe but because of its slip-resistant, non-marking sole and despite its unusual form, it was an instant hit. Looking much like the traditional Dutch shoe for its first models, it has since evolved to also include flip-flops, sandals, high-heeled models and sneakers, among others.
- Original wooden Dutch shoes
Bariles does not own a pair yet but with the opening of this CROCS™ outlet at the KCC Mall of GenSan (which is the franchisee for the brand in Socsargen), it won’t be long before he can be seen wearing it one of these days.
Just give him time to scrimp on his favorite siopao and save money for his first purchase.
By the way, Bariles‘ shoe size is 7 1/2 (Pinoy size).
