Skechers’ Cali Shoes = Good Crocs Knockoffs?
June 19, 2007 by Designer EllaIs a Crocs knockoff ever an improvement? First there’s the question: can a knockoff ever be better? Sure, I say, but this matter takes the issue further. We’re talking about fabulously ugly Crocs. Sure, differentiations have a good chance of looking better than those garden clogs, but how good can a similar style be?
Enter CALI by Skechers. They’re not all molded plastic, but some are, and the makers seem to be riding on the popular fugly footwear wave. The two shoes in this style (made of the plastic) I see on Skechers.com are pictured; the Shockwaves Sandal (very similar to one Crocs style) and the “Calies” .. er “Mary Jane inspired” shoe (sort of like a modern, more feminine signature Skechers’ style sneaker meets the boat shoe). These shoes offer cuter, slimmer shaping and the sandal has these buttons that can be placed in different spots on the thong strap.
Better sure, I think, but how much? What’s your vote?
