Crocs CEO Andrew Rees said: “We continue to see strong consumer demand for the Crocs brand worldwide.

“On the back of record second-quarter results and continued momentum, we are raising our full-year guidance for this year.

“We are also committing to net-zero emissions by 2030, enabling us to provide ‘comfort without carbon’ to our customers worldwide.

“I believe we can deliver sustained, highly profitable growth while having a positive impact on our planet and our communities.”

In response to the positive results, Crocs expects its third-quarter revenue growth to reach between 60% and 70% compared to the same period of last year.

The company also raised its full-year revenue guidance for the year, with an anticipated growth of 60% to 65% compared to a year prior.

Last month, the footwear manufacturer called on the International Trade Commission (ITC) to stop the import of counterfeit Crocs products in the US.
