Why We Love National Croc Day

Crocs are COMFY

This "foam clog shoe" makes it feel like you're walking on clouds or as some wearers say, marshmallowy pillows. Just slip them on and go, with socks or without. No laces, no tying, no problem.

Crocs are versatile

Sure, they're great for gardening and just hanging around. But slip on one of the heeled Croc styles and you're ready to hit the clubs. Want to show off your personality? There's a whole rainbow of colors and jibbitz (charms that attach to your shoes) to customize your kicks. Crocs can go anywhere and with any outfit.

Crocs are making a fashion comeback

Worried about getting flack for wearing your comfy Crocs? Never fear. Crocs are making a big fashion comeback. Drew Barrymore, and even frat guys, are wearing the foam clogs these days. Croc-inspired shoes are even showing up on high-fashion runways. We're looking at you, Yeezy.

Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!
