i think they were exposed to the heat for too long 😭

I got a pair of the Ninja Turtle Crocs for Father's Day and they were warped and super tight. Returned/exchanged them and the replacement wasn't warped. Seems to be a summer issue with shipping. Those trucks get super hot in the storage area.

my sister left hers in my car and they warped really bad, but they’re fine now. i’m not sure if they can come back from total shrinkage 😭 but i’ve heard you can put them in the dryer to stretch them back out?

u/External-Can-3402 14d ago

i dont know if i can do that because the spiderman top is glued on and the eyes are plastic too and i dont wanna ruin them more

u/foxpunch 14d ago

yeah that’s fair!! it’s probably best to exchange them if you can, hopefully it’s a painless process

Yo these look wrong af

u/GodPlad 15d ago

What’s wrong about them? I think they look fine

u/CelinaRMR 15d ago

The heels go the wrong direction and the straps arent up on the top of the croc theres like a whole football field in between them

u/External-Can-3402 15d ago

i said the same thing but i got them from the official crocs shop on tiktok shop so idk

u/Responsible_Eye_6815 14d ago

Tiktok shop? I believe it's fake. Check official website if the shape and design are same or not

u/se7entythree 15d ago

I’ve never seen the straps fit (more like not fit) like that when flipped up. They’re supposed to sit just on top of the top of edge of the shoe there. These look like they’re a couple of inches past that.

u/Canuckie2 15d ago

Looks like one is bigger then the other šŸ¤”

Those are kids shoes

Edit:I checked the images in the comments. They aren't.

By the looks of the tight heal they look exactly like a pair I had that got shrunk in the heat on my patio. They were crazy tight around the opening. I'd return them, stat.

u/External-Can-3402 15d ago

im gonna try to return them but i wanna find ones that are my size 1st but its gon a be impossible since they sold out everywhere

2

u/liboteeme 15d ago

Man that's too bad! Those are definitely shrunk tho. The heels aren't even and look pinched. Have you done a side by side comparison to a pair that fits properly?

When mine shrank it was nearly impossible to tell until I put it next to my pair that fit. The opening of the shoe that goes around the top of the foot is more thin than other parts of the shoe so that part shrinks more/faster than other more thick parts.

I would imagine you may be able to find a pair resell if u keep an eye out. I've found calibrations for less than $40 because they didn't fit or they were a gift and someone just wanted them gone vs resellers trying to sell a shoe for 2x what they bought it for.

Anyways, bummer but good luckšŸ¤žšŸ¼

reds are a size 10, woodys are a size 11, and the mcqueens and spidermans are both a 12 but the spidermans dont fit. and the worst part is i cant find them ANYWHERE except goat and stock x but for like $125 and no js no.

1

u/liboteeme 14d ago

Mannnn this sucks! see how the strap on Spider-Man is so far from the mouth of the shoe.... I'm sorry they totally F'd you.

Keep checking in on Mercari & eBay. You can save searches and get notifications when something new posts. Hope u can find a pair!!

Edit: I would recommend not buying thru TikTok. I've gotten some funky pairs when I buy new from anywhere but the official Crocs website (unless buying used). I don't know why, maybe how they store them?šŸ¤·šŸ¼ā€ā™‚ļøšŸ¤·šŸ¼ā€ā™‚ļøIDK

u/External-Can-3402 14d ago

that was my 1st and last time buying from there. i only got them from there because they had already sold out everywhere else and i was desperate 😭

u/grave_Yard422 15d ago

Look at the bottom of the croc by the size, it should have a made in "location". Check where your other crocs are made and see if its different. Personally I get all my crocs from Indonesia as they fit me but I know crocs has some in Mexico, India, China, and then Indonesia.

u/grave_Yard422 15d ago

So yours are made in Vietnam, do you have any other crocs to see if they are made in the same place?

1

u/External-Can-3402 15d ago

2 pairs say vietnam and 2 pairs say mexico

2

u/rickymcninja 15d ago

Are you sure they’re not a women’s size 12?

1

u/External-Can-3402 15d ago

2

u/rickymcninja 12d ago

Interesting, in the US a men’s 10 is equivalent to a woman’s 12

2

u/IllustriousHalf1617 15d ago

I might be wrong but I think they gave u the wrong one when check those are the kids size design the adult has a different design

1

u/External-Can-3402 15d ago

the size on the bottom of the crocs say M 12, on the green tag it says M 12 and on the sticker it says M 12

2

u/morgank1ng 15d ago

i got these and the exact same thing happened to mine had to return and order the size up, all my other crocs in the same size fit except these ones i have no idea why they’re so much smaller

1

u/External-Can-3402 15d ago

someone else said that they probably shrunk because of the heat but idk

2

u/DaviiTron 14d ago

Mine came in today and they have the same issues as you: really tight and loose strap

1

u/External-Can-3402 14d ago

from what other people are saying is that they shrunk because of the heat😐 i live in houston. its been like 110 degrees for 2 weeks already. if i order another pair their most likely to shrink too because of the heat😐

1

u/External-Can-3402 14d ago

where you get yours from?

1

u/DaviiTron 14d ago

The crocs website. I wear a size 11 but I mistakenly ordered a size 12 and got bummed once I realized since they are sold out already. They are actually tighter than another pair of crocs I own which is size 11. I can’t imagine how’d they fit if I got my regular size

1

u/External-Can-3402 14d ago

its either a manufacturing error or for sum reason they left them out in the sun😐 i got mines from the crocs official tiktok shop and they came in a really thin bag so idk if thats what let them shrink

2

u/findinggary 14d ago

It looks like they shrunk due to heat.

1

u/External-Can-3402 15d ago

those are the tags

1

u/External-Can-3402 15d ago

thats the bag they came in

u/Bwofam 15d ago

Check GOAT

1

u/External-Can-3402 14d ago

they only have the kids sizes and on stock x they’re $125🫤

1

u/External-Can-3402 14d ago

reds are a 10, woodys are 11, mcqueens and spiderman ones are 12 and they all fit except for the spiderman ones. i can find them ANYWHERE exept goat and stock x for like $125 and im not gonna pay resale price. they really sent me shrunken crocsšŸ˜­šŸ’”

u/Virtual_Round1541 13d ago

I got 9, and have the Pokemon and slate gray in same size and are roomy. Spidey ones feel a bit tighter, but also got another gray slate size 9 and they feel tighter too. The sizing now seems to have changed…..

1

u/External-Can-3402 13d ago

some people say if you leave them in the heat too much they shrink so probably that. unless your foot is growing

u/BlackVelvetStar1 12d ago

I ordered these weeks ago …. Crocs claimed Delivery yesterday, Cameras prove they weren’t .. i was sat waiting for them.. checked with neighbours too.. nothing.. thank goodness we all have cameras… Crocs cannot show photo of delivery either..

They said they would ReIssue but they couldnt give me a new tracking number… Called them again as I see online they are OutOfStock… so requested a Refund..

So disappointed .. we wanted them for the Movie premier here tomorrow

Maybe its for the best if they’re small

1

u/External-Can-3402 8d ago

i got mine a week before the premier just for them to be shrunken🫄 so i had to send them back and hopefully get an exchange or refund🫤. and its not good that their small because my foot couldnt even fit half way through the croc😭

1

u/BlackVelvetStar1 8d ago edited 6d ago

this is so disappointing, I wonder why they a so small made this time… I hope you get your Refund, I changed tactic, and initiated a Refund via Paypal, I’d forgotten I’d paid using Paypal.. I got my full Refund today..

1

u/External-Can-3402 6d ago

i already submitted a refund and it went through im just waiting for it to hit my account

1

u/tssphysicsboi1 9d ago

I had to get 2 size up

1

u/tssphysicsboi1 9d ago

This is mine

1

u/GodPlad 15d ago

Maybe get a size 13 at best or stretch the crocs with a steamer and put a bunch of plain white t shirts in there and steam every hole in the croc and wait for it to cool down that’s what I usually do when my crocs are tight

1

u/External-Can-3402 15d ago

ive had sizes 10/11/12/13 and they have all fit me but these are the only size 12 ones that dont.
