Crocs Pledges To Go Completely Vegan by the End of 2021 Over recent years, the shoe brand Crocs has gained a cult-like following, but now the loved shoe company is promising to go completely vegan by the end of 2021. The company announced that it will commit itself to remove all animal products from its collections in an effort to enhance the company’s overall sustainability. The decision to go vegan comes alongside the company sustainability campaign that is attempting to cut its emissions and become a net-zero company by 2030. The brand’s signature material, Croslite, is fully vegan, but Crocs occasionally feature leather in some styles. Crocs, Inc determined that in order to cut its already low carbon footprint, it needed to remove the animal-derived material from those designs. Currently, the carbon footprint for the Classic Clogs is 3.94 kg of CO2e, but the brand is aiming to lower it even further by innovating its Croslite material. Croslite is derived from nearly 45 percent recycled materials, making it one of the more sustainable mass-production materials on the market.
