Mega Crush: My Honest Take on Crocs' Sky-High Platform!
Hey Fam! It's your girl, Willow, back with another review. Crocs... I know, I know. Some of you are rolling your eyes, but hear me out. Growing up on the Rez, I saw aunties and uncles rocking Crocs everywhere – from the powwow grounds to the grocery store. Comfort is key, right? This review is for Crocs Mega Crush Clog, model number 207988. And these ain't your grandma's Crocs! These Mega Crush Clogs take that classic comfort and pump it up... literally. We're talking serious height here. So, let's see if these platforms are worth the hype, the price tag, and all the looks you're about to get.
Sky-High Strut: My Mega Crush Clog Experience
Okay, let's talk about wearing these things. The first time I put them on, I felt like I was towering over everyone! As an indigenous woman, I am already pretty tall for women, but these gave me an extra few inches. I was walking on stilts, but surprisingly stable ones. Crocs calls that Croslite™ foam, and whatever it is, it works. These platforms are way more comfortable than my other platform sandals – I wore them for a full 6 hours running errands and my feet weren't screaming by the end of the day! I even did some light gardening in them (weeding, not heavy lifting!). Now, I wouldn't recommend these for hiking those trails, relatives but for everyday wear, they're surprisingly practical. I have seen comments where people are complaining, but I have not yet experienced these issues.
The height definitely changes your stride. You have to be mindful, especially on uneven ground. I almost ate it when I stepped on a loose rock, so be careful out there! And, the truth is, these are conversation starters. Be prepared for questions and maybe a few stares.
Mega Crush: Are They Worth It?
Let's break it down.
Pros
- Serious height boost!
- Surprisingly comfortable Croslite™ foam.
- Easy to clean (hello, Rez mud!).
- Bold, statement-making style.
Cons
- Can be unstable on uneven ground.
- Price is higher than basic Crocs.
- Not suitable for all activities (hiking, running).
So, are these Mega Crush Clogs worth the money? At around $85, they're definitely pricier than your average Crocs. Compared to other platform sandals, though, they're actually pretty competitive. You're paying for the Crocs name and that unique Croslite™ comfort. And Crocs are known for lasting forever. I still have a pair from high school that are going strong!
My Verdict & Wishlist
These Crocs aren't for everyone. If you're looking for a subtle shoe, look elsewhere. But if you want to turn heads and be comfy while doing it, these are a fun choice. Crocs, if you're listening, here's my wishlist:
- Reinforce that ankle support! Maybe a slightly wider base?
- More colors! Especially earthy tones inspired by the Southwest.
- Partner with Native artists for Jibbitz or special edition designs! Imagine Jibbitz featuring traditional beadwork patterns or clan symbols. That would be amazing!
Overall, I'm enjoying my Mega Crush Clogs, but I'm definitely wearing them with caution and a healthy dose of confidence! Now, I want to hear from you! What's your favorite thing about Crocs? What Jibbitz are you rocking? Share in the comments below!

When Do Crocs Mega Crush Clogs Go on Sale?
Think holidays! Black Friday, Cyber Monday, Memorial Day... Crocs (and retailers that sell them) often have sales events. I've seen Mega Crush Clogs dip to around $50 during these sales, even though they usually retail for around $70. Signing up for email newsletters from Crocs.com, Amazon, Nordstrom, and Zappos is key to getting notified about sales and those sweet, sweet promo codes.
Snagging Crocs Promo Codes: Your Secret Weapon
Promo codes can appear at any time, not just during big sales. Check sites like RetailMeNot, CouponCabin, and Honey. But always double-check that the code is valid and applies to the specific Mega Crush Clogs you want. Sometimes certain colors or sizes are excluded from the discount. Speaking of discounts, keep an eye out for student and military discounts too!
Restock Alerts: The Key to Getting Your Size
Seriously, these clogs sell out fast! If you see "out of stock," don't give up. Restocks are frequent. Sign up for email alerts on the retailer's website (Crocs.com is a must!). Also, follow Crocs fan groups on social media – those communities are usually on top of restock info.
Price Drop Tracking: Get Notified When the Price is Right
Use a price drop tracker! Many online retailers and browser extensions offer this. You tell it the price you're willing to pay for the Mega Crush Clogs, and you get an alert when it drops. This is especially useful if you're not in a rush and are willing to wait for a deal.
Quick Tips for Finding Mega Crush Clog Deals:
- Sign up for email alerts: Crocs.com, Amazon, Zappos, Nordstrom
- Follow social media: Crocs official accounts and fan groups.
- Use price trackers: Set your desired price and wait for the drop.
- Check for seasonal sales: Holidays are your best bet.
- Don't forget promo codes: But double-check their validity!
