- Crocs (Brand): Crocs, Inc. owns the Crocs brand and outsources its footwear: Vietnam accounted for about 45% of Crocs-brand production in 2025, with additional manufacturers in China, Indonesia, India and Mexico. [1][2]

Who owns Crocs?
Crocs, Inc. is the listed brand company; Crocs and HEYDUDE are separate brands in its portfolio following the February 17, 2022 acquisition. Neither a national headquarters nor brand ownership implies domestic shoe assembly. [3][1]
Who actually makes Crocs products?
The 2025 report describes fully outsourced footwear manufacturing. Its two largest Crocs-brand manufacturers accounted for about 45% and 28% of production, but the filing does not name every factory for every model. [1]
Where are Crocs products made?
Vietnam remained the largest disclosed Crocs-brand sourcing country in 2025, at about 45%. This is a change from the prior year’s 51%, not a timeless statement that all Crocs are Vietnamese-made. [1][2]
Is Crocs made in China or the USA?
Yes, China is among the countries in the disclosed contractor network. Crocs’ report says its third-party footwear manufacturers are outside the USA; US distribution warehouses are not US shoe factories. [1]
Same factory, different label
Crocs and HEYDUDE share a corporate owner but have separately reported sourcing mixes. In 2025 HEYDUDE shifted toward Vietnam; that does not prove an identical factory, material or construction to Crocs clogs. [1][3]
