Crocs LiteRide Clog

About

The Crocs LiteRide Clog is a cushioned clog silhouette from Crocs' LiteRide platform, which the company announced as its worldwide debut on March 1, 2018, calling it Crocs' most innovative comfort technology to date. LiteRide foam is a closed-cell material that Crocs' own launch release describes as 40 percent softer and 25 percent lighter than the brand's Classic Croslite foam, aimed at delivering both structural support and sink-in softness. Then-SVP of Global Product and Marketing Michelle Poole said LiteRide was lighter, softer and more flexible than anything the company had created before. At launch, the LiteRide Clog carried a US MSRP of $54.99, one of eight styles (Clog, Slide, Sandal, Flip, Slip-On, Lace, Pacer, Mule) in the Spring/Summer 2018 LiteRide Collection, positioned toward the growing athleisure category with a more streamlined, sportier profile than the roomy, single-piece Classic Clog. Later LiteRide Clog generations, sold as the LiteRide 360 Clog, build the sole, footbed, and upper from three separate foam pieces instead of the Classic Clog's one-piece Croslite construction, giving a spongier, more cushioned feel, though independent side-by-side testing found the multi-layer LiteRide 360 heavier than the Classic Clog.
