My little ones have worn Crocs for many years, and specifically last year we bought another pair with glitter, which they wore out and NOTHING happened to them. This model, they wore 2-3 times and all the glitter came off the toe of the shoe. At the back and around the edges, the color also faded after about a month of use. Not only does the glitter come off, but it also leaves a different color where it comes off, making them look excessively worn out, even though they are brand new. It's a shame, because they are also expensive. We never had problems with the plain-colored ones, until now.
