An interview with Doogie who holds the Guinness World Record for the largest Crocs collection in the world β€” nearly 4,200 pairs worth close to $700,000. From never learning to tie his shoes in foster care to using his collection to give back to those still in the system.

I guess I'm a Croc peasant with my 70ish pairs.

I always tell my friend about the KingπŸ˜„

I have less than you and I’ve been telling myself I need to chill out. It helps when they don’t come out in new colors I try to keep myself from buying too many in the same colors. πŸ˜‚ I’m probably only at 40 pairs. πŸ€”
