What is the most expensive Crocs charm?

The charms used on the shoe are called Jibbitz, a trademarked name for the official charms designed especially for the shoe brand. These options range from standard shoes to versions that can clip, tie and be pinned to items like shoe lashes, bags and jackets.

Regarding the charms designed to adorn Crocs, the most expensive ones available are the limited edition Dreamville X Crocs 13 Pack Jibbitz collection, costing $49.99. In contrast, the cheapest charm available is the Fly Money charm, on sale at the time of writing at $2.00.

Why are Crocs so expensive?

Since the shoes are not traditionally stylish, many wonder why they are more expensive than other casual-looking footwear. The biggest reason is believed to be the material it is made of.

Their trademark Croslite™ material is odour-resistant, non-toxic and does not deteriorate quickly. These aspects make it the perfect practical shoe, ideal for any situation.
