We caught up with Crocs
(CROX) CEO John McCarvel at the National Retail Federation's annual expo, where
he was receiving the award for Retail Innovator of the Year. And we couldn't
help but notice that he wasn't wearing Crocs.
"It's one of the first times in, like, five years that I've ever not [worn Crocs]," he said when quizzed about his choice of footwear. As you might expect, he explained that he thought it better to go with dress shoes when accepting an award at a major industry conference.
But the idea of a CEO wearing Crocs in public isn't as crazy as it might sound.

So what were these dastardly shoes? Turns out it was a rather entry-level red carpet shoe, the Louboutin 150mm (that’s about six inches) “Lady Peep” in black (see at left). If you’d like to try your luck in them at your next event, they will set you back $945.

It’s still like she’s playing dress-up in her mom’s clothes at these awards shows.
Earlier in the night Dunham had called out her undergarments as a potential source of her demise, tweeting: “If Golden Globes support garment kills me I leave my archives to my mother and my ephemera to my 8 year old friend Coco.” Turns out she was focusing on the wrong accessory.Rist international shoes manufacturer and shoes supplier in agra india making quality.
