Jibbitz Launches Accessory Line to Personalize Crocs
Filed under category: Wearables
Thousands of people who own lightweight, waterproof clogs such as Crocs, can now personalize their shoes with Jibbitz. Jibbitz are handmade accessories that come in different shapes and sizes with designs such as silk flowers, colored stones, yin yang and peace symbols, sports gear, American flags, happy faces, and words such as "Love," "Be Happy," and more. Jibbitz snap into the holes of waterproof clogs and are easily interchangeable.
Sheri Schmelzer, owner and creator of Jibbitz, started the business in her basement with a few Jibbitz designs for her kids and their friends, and Jibbitz have become so popular that it is now a growing business with more than 200 designs available on the Web site. Jibbitz are currently sold only through www.jibbitz.com, but Schmelzer has plans to expand into retail stores late this year. Can't wait!

I have to say I have these on my crocs. My new girlfriend used them to start a conversation with me. Could they have spirred ture love? I don't know but we will always remember how they gave us something to talk about.

I just discovered Jibbitz and I love them. My daughter who is three has them on her crocs and I think it is a great way to make any color croc coordinate with multiple outfits. What a great idea you came up with. The only thing I would suggest is a better way for them to attach because they have a tendency to come apart and there is a risk of losing the top.
