Emma Altemeier ‘22 wearing white Crocs. “I wear them like every day. I bought these as a Christmas gift because theyre comfortable. Because it’s winter, I feel like not a lot of people wear them, so I guess its a bold move. I also have different colored Crocs in pink and yellow. I started wearing them before they became a trend. I started wearing them for softball because some of my teammates wore them. So [I] was just like, ‘Why not?’”
